current Internet connection. Therefore, you
cannot establish an Internet connection dur-
ing a service call.
Canada:a mobile phone must be connected
via Bluetooth
®(Ypage 114) or USB
(
Ypage 200) with COMAND. Furthermore,
you need a valid mobile service contract with
a data option, which is used to calculate the
associated connection costs.
Conditions for a Bluetooth
®connection
RThe mobile phone supports at least one of
the Bluetooth®profiles DUN ( Dial-U p
Networking) or PAN ( PersonalArea
Network).
The Bluetooth
®profiles DUN and PAN ena-
ble the Internet connection of the mobile
phone to be made available to the system.
Conditions for a USB connection
RThe mobile phone supports at least one of
the USB classes:
-RNDIS ( Remote Network Driver Inter-
face Specification)
-CDC/NCM ( NetworkControl Model)
-CDC/ECM ( Ethernet Control Model)
-CDC/ACM ( Access Control Model)
The USB classes enable the mobile phone
Internet connection to be made available to
the system.
The terms of use are shown when the system
is used for the first time and then once a year
thereafter. Only read and accept the terms of
use when the vehicle is stationary.
The driver is not permitted to call up websites
while driving and use of the Me
rcedes-Benz
Apps is restricted.
iThe availability of individual Mercedes-
Benz Apps may vary depending on the
country.
Setting up an Internet connection
(Canada)
Procedure and general information
If you are using Internet access for the first
time, you must enable the connected mobile
phone for Internet access (
Ypage 149). If the
connected mobile phone supports the Blue-
tooth
®PAN profile or the USB classes RNDIS,
CDC/NCM or CDC/ECM, you do not need to
make additional settings. The Internet con-
nection is established. If the connected
mobile phone does not support the named
Bluetooth
®profile or the named USB classes,
predefined (
Ypage 150) or manual access
data (
Ypage 150) must be set.
While initializing the mobile phone for the
Internet connection, access data which is
already on the mobile phone may be over-
written. You should therefore check the set-
tings on the mobile phone (see the manufac-
turer's operating instructions).

A list of countries appears.
If the mobile phone network provider pro-
vides multiple access data options, the rele-
vant access data still has to be selected. This
depends on the data package used, for exam-
ple.
To check whether the predetermined dial-in
data corresponds with the dial-in data provi-
ded by your mobile phone network provider,
proceed as follows (
Ypage 152) and select
Manual Settings
. The access data is dis-
played.
The access data for the mobile phone net-
work provider is selected once for the mobile phone connected and is loaded again each
time the mobile phone is connected. Estab-

You must set the access data of the mobile
phone network provider who provides the
SIM card and the associated data package
(access settings) for the connected mobile
phone. The access data remains the same
when you are in a different country (roaming).

Bluetooth®audio mode
Connecting Bluetooth®audio devices
Requirements
XActivate the Bluetooth®function in
COMAND (
Ypage 44).
Bluetooth
®audio mode requires a Blue-
tooth®-capable audio device.
Check your Bluetooth
®audio device for the
following (see the manufacturer's operating
instructions):
RBluetooth®audio profile
The Bluetooth
®audio device must support
the A2DP and AVRCP Bluetooth®audio
profiles.
RBluetooth®visibility
Certain Bluetooth
®audio devices do not
just require activation of the Bluetooth®
function. In addition, your device must be
made "visible" to other devices.
RBluetooth®device name
This device name is predetermined but can
usually be changed. For a clear selection of the Bluetooth
®device, Mercedes-Benz rec-
ommends that you customize the device
name.
iA2DP ( Advanced AudioDistribution
Profile): Bluetooth®audio profile for audio
data transmission
AVRCP (Audio VideoRemote Control
Profile): Bluetooth
®audio profile for audio
data playback.
iThe Bluetooth®device must be visible for
authorization. After authorization,
COMAND even finds the Bluetooth
®device
when it is not visible.

General notes
Before using your Bluetooth®audio device
with COMAND for the first time, you will need
to authorize it.
When you authorize a new Bluetooth
®audio
device, it is connected automatically. Con-
nection involves first searching for a Blue-
tooth
®audio device and then authorizing it.
You can authorize up to fifteen Bluetooth
®
devices.
iIf you authorize a mobile phone that sup-
ports Bluetooth®audio, the A2DP and
AVRCP Bluetooth®audio profiles are con-
nected automatically.
The mobile phone is then entered:
Rin the Bluetooth®telephone list
(
Ypage 115)
Rin the Bluetooth®device list
(
Ypage 195)
Mercedes-Benz recommends authorizing a
mobile phone in Bluetooth
®telephony
(
Ypage 116).
iIf the mobile phone that is connected only
supports two Bluetooth®profiles at the
same time, COMAND functions may
behave as follows:
Rwhen connecting to the Internet, play-
back is stopped on the Bluetooth®audio
device.
Rwhen starting playback on the Blue-
tooth®audio device, the Internet con-
nection is ended.

Searching for Bluetooth®audio
XTo selectSearch for Audio Devices:
press the controller.
A message appears.
XSelect Start Search.
COMAND searches for Bluetooth®audio
devices within range and adds them to the
Bluetooth
®device list.
The duration of the search depends on the
number of Bluetooth
®audio devices within
range and their characteristics.
iWith some Bluetooth®audio devices,
playback must first be started on the device
itself so that COMAND can play the audio
files. Bluetooth
®must also be given as a
media output location for the audio device
used.
Authorizing Bluetooth
®audio
XSelect a Bluetooth®audio device that has
not yet been authorized from the list: turn
and press the controller.
Authorization starts.
Depending on the Bluetooth
®audio device
used, you now have two options for con-
tinuing with authorization.
Option 1: entering the passkey
XYou can find information on this in the
"Authorizing (connecting) a mobile phone"
section (
Ypage 116).
After successful authorization, the Blue-
tooth
®audio device is connected and
starts playing.
Option 2: Secure Simple Pairing
XYou can find information on this in the
"Authorizing (connecting) a mobile phone"
section (
Ypage 116).
After successful authorization, the Blue-
tooth
®audio device is connected and
starts playing.
iThe Bluetooth®audio device must sup-
port Bluetooth®version 2.1 for connection
via Secure Simple Pairing. COMAND cre- ates a six-digit code, which is displayed on
both devices that are to be connected
For some Bluetooth
®audio devices, the
pairing must be confirmed within 10 sec-
onds.
XIf the number code displayed on COMAND
and on the Bluetooth®audio device is the
same, select Yes
: press the controller.
If you select Yes
, authorization continues
and the Bluetooth®audio device is connec-
ted. Playback starts.
If you select No
, authorization is canceled.
External authorization
If COMAND does not find your Bluetooth®
audio device, this may be due to particular
security settings on your Bluetooth®audio
device. In this case, check whether your Blue-
tooth
®audio device can locate COMAND.
The Bluetooth
®device name for COMAND is
MB Bluetooth
.
XSwitch on Bluetooth®audio mode

tooth
®audio device is connected and
starts playing.
With some Bluetooth
®audio devices, play-
back must first be started on the device itself
so that COMAND can play the audio files.
