If your mobile phone supports the PBAP Blue-
tooth®profile, the call lists from the mobile
phone are displayed in COMAND. When con- necting the mobile phone, you may have to
confirm the connection for the PBAP Blue-
tooth
®profile.

the call lists in your mobile phone. The Call list option is not available unless a
mobile phone is connected to COMAND.
If the contact for an incoming call is not saved
in the address book, you can use the call list
to save the telephone number. You can save
this telephone number as a new contact in the
address book or add it to an existing contact
(
Ypage 133).
iIf you connect a different mobile phone to
COMAND, the call lists from the new mobile phone are displayed.
