navigation). You can use these entries to
make telephone calls and for navigation. You
can create a maximum of 3000 address book
entries.
Importing contacts automatically
COMAND automatically imports contacts
from a mobile phone to the phone book.
In this case, the mobile phone must be active
via the Bluetooth ®
interface.
Depending on the mobile phone, this process
may take some time. Depending on the
mobile phone used, only the phone book
entries in the mobile phone or these entries
and the phone book entries from the SIM card
are imported.
Automatically imported contacts in COMAND
can be identified by the Ã/0 symbol.
These are available to you in COMAND only
when the mobile phone is active via the
Bluetooth ®
interface.
Importing contacts manually
i All the manually imported contacts
remain in COMAND even if you use
COMAND with a different mobile phone.
The entries can be viewed without a mobile
phone. Contacts created in COMAND can
