ing) a mobile phone
Before using your mobile phone with
COMAND for the first time, you will need to

authorize it (
Ypage 114). Depending on the
mobile phone, authorization either takes

Telephone

entering a passkey. COMAND automatically
enables the procedure suited to your mobile
phone. You can recognize Secure Simple Pair-
ing by a code which is displayed in COMAND
and on the mobile phone. You can recognize
the passkey system by the fact that you haveto enter a code on the mobile phone and in
COMAND. The mobile phone is always con-
nected automatically after authorization.
If COMAND does not detect your mobile
phone, this may be due to particular security
settings on your mobile phone. You can also

on the mobile phone (
Ypage 114).

®on your mobile phone.
