Bluetooth®settings
General information about Blue-
tooth®
Bluetooth®-capable devices, e. g. mobile
phones, need to comply with a certain profile in
order to be connected to the multimedia sys-
tem. Every Bluetooth
®device has its own spe-
cific Bluetooth®name.
Bluetooth®technology is a standard for short
range wireless data transmissions up to approx-
imately 10 m. You can use Bluetooth
®to connect your mobile
phone to the multimedia system, for example:
Ruse the hands-free system
Restablish an Internet connection
Rlisten to music using Bluetooth®Audio
Rexchange vCards
Bluetooth®is a registered trademark of Blue-
tooth Special Interest Group (SIG) Inc.

Automatic volume adjustment
General information
With the AutomaticVolumeAdjustmentfunc-

adjusted for each other, to compensate for rel-
ative differences in volume.
For example: changing from a relatively quiet to
a relatively loud radio station. The volume for
both stations sounds the same. Manual read-
justment of the volume is not required.
The Automatic Volume Adjustment
function
is deactivated ªwhen the vehicle leaves the
factory. Using this function, the dynamic range
of the music is slightly reduced. To make the
most of the audiophile sound quality, it is rec-
ommended to leave it off.

Procedure and general information
Searching for and authorizing (connecting)
a mobile phone
Before using your mobile phone with the multi-
media system for the first time, you will need to search for the phone (
Ypage 93) and then
authorize it (Ypage 94). Depending on the
mobile phone, authorization either takes place
by means of Secure Simple Pairing or by enter-
ing a passkey. The multimedia system automat-
ically makes the procedure that is relevant for your mobile phone available. You can recognize
Secure Simple Pairing by the fact that a code is
displayed on the mobile phone and on the mul-
timedia system. You can recognize the passkey
system by the fact that you have to enter a code
on the mobile phone and on the multimedia sys-
tem. The mobile phone is always connected
automatically after authorization.
If the multimedia system does not detect your
mobile phone, this may be due to particular
security settings on your mobile phone. You can
also start the search procedure and authoriza-
tion on the mobile phone (
Ypage 95).
Device-specific information on authorizing and
connecting Bluetooth
®-capable mobile phones
can be found on the Internet at http://
www.mercedes-benz.com/connect .
You can authorize up to 15 mobile phones. After
authorization, the connection of the last two tel-
ephones used always functions automatically.
Only one mobile phone can be connected to the
multimedia system at any one time.
De-authorizing (disconnecting) a mobile
phone
The connection is terminated automatically if
you leave the receiver range of the multimedia
system or deactivate Bluetooth
®on your mobile
phone.
If you no longer want the Bluetooth
®connection
to be established automatically, the mobile
phone must be de-authorized (disconnected)
(
Ypage 96).
