Using the address book
Introduction
Always pay attention to traffic conditions. Before starting the journey, familiarize
yourself with the address book functions.
Only use COMAND when the road and traffic
conditions permit
.You could otherwise
become involved in an accident in which you
or others could be injured.
The address book organizes and stores
entries that are entered from different
sources (mobile phone, memory card, USB
device, COMAND phone book, navigation
system).
You can use these entries to make telephone
calls and for navigation.
i Number of contacts in the address
book: the address book can store a total of
4000 contacts.
1500 entries each are reserved in the
address book for:
R contacts from the mobile phone
R contacts that you create in COMAND or
import from other sources
The remaining 1,000 entries are assigned
by COMAND as necessary.
i Display of mobile phone contacts:
contacts downloaded from the mobile
phone remain in the address book even if
you disconnect the mobile phone from
COMAND. Contacts that have previously
been available can be displayed as soon as
the mobile phone is reconnected.
COMAND downloads the contacts again so
that any new contacts that have been
added to the mobile phone can be
displayed.
As soon as you connect a new mobile
phone to COMAND all the contacts from
the previous mobile phone are replaced by
those from the new phone's address book.
Address book entries remain stored when
the mobile phone is disconnected. For this
reason, delete your personal data using the
reset function before selling your vehicle,
for example (Y page 47). Using the address book
