®
audio mode Preconditions for the Bluetooth
®
audio device
Bluetooth ®
audio mode requires a Blue-
tooth ®
-capable audio device. Observe the
information in the Bluetooth ®
audio device's
operating instructions.
Before using Bluetooth ®
audio mode, you
should check your Bluetooth ®
audio device
for the following:
R Bluetooth ®
audio profile
The Bluetooth ®
audio device must support
the A2DP and AVRCP Bluetooth ®
audio
profiles.
R Bluetooth ®
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.
R Bluetooth ®
device name
This device name is predetermined but can
usually be changed. To make a clear selec-
tion of the Bluetooth ®
device possible,
Mercedes-Benz recommends that you cus- tomize the device name.
i A2DP (
Advanced AudioDistribution
Profile): Bluetooth ®
audio profile for audio
data transmission
AVRCP (Audio VideoRemote Control
Profile): Bluetooth ®
audio profile for audio
data playback.
i Not all Bluetooth ®
audio devices available
on the market are equally suitable. To
obtain more information about suitable
Bluetooth ®
audio devices and about con-
necting Bluetooth ®
audio devices to
COMAND, visit

®
audio devices
General information 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.
i If 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:
R in the Bluetooth ®
telephone list
(Y page 128)
R in the Bluetooth ®
device list
(Y page 212).
