Introduction
If your mobile phone supports the PBAP Blue- tooth ®
profile, the call lists from the mobile
phone are displayed in COMAND.
If your mobile phone does not support the
PBAP Bluetooth ®
profile, COMAND will
attempt to display the mobile phone call lists
using alternative methods. If the mobile
phone call lists cannot be displayed,
COMAND generates its own call lists. These
are not the same as the call lists in your
mobile phone.
The Call list option is not available unless a
mobile phone is connected to COMAND.
If the contact for an incoming call is not saved
in the address book, you can use the call list
to save the telephone number. You can save
this telephone number as a new contact in the address book or add it to an existing contact
(Y page 152).
