Ryou require a mobile phone with Blue-
tooth®or an audio device with Bluetooth®
(Bluetooth®device).
Rthe Bluetooth®device must be located
inside the vehicle in the vicinity of Audio 15.
Rthe Bluetooth®function of Audio 15 is acti-
vated (
Ypage 21).
Rthe Bluetooth®function of the Bluetooth®
device is activated.
Rthe device must support the A2DP and
AVRCP audio profiles.

phones and audio devices recommended
by Mercedes-Benz is available from quali-
fied specialist workshops.

Pairing/unpairing a Bluetooth®
device
What does pairing mean?
When pairing, an authorized connection is
established between Audio 15 and the Blue-
tooth
®device.
Your mobile Bluetooth
®device must be visi-
ble. Information on how to make your Blue-
tooth
®device visible can be found in the
operating instructions of your Bluetooth®
device.
If Audio 15 and your Bluetooth
®device are
paired, they will connect automatically as
soon as there is a Bluetooth
®connection.
iAudio 15 saves the pairing data of up to
10 Bluetooth®devices. If an additional
Bluetooth®device is coupled, Audio 15
overwrites the pairing data for the Blue-
tooth
®device that has not been connected
to it for the longest period of time.
There are two ways of pairing:
RBluetooth®pairing: Audio 15 searches for
the Bluetooth®device and starts the pair-
ing process
RBluetooth®external : the Bluetooth®
device searches for Audio 15 and starts the
pairing process
