The next time you use the mobile phone inside 
the vehicle, it will be recognized within no more 
than 2 minutes as long as the engine is running 
or the ignition is switched on.
For some mobile phone types it may be 
necessary to make certain settings for a 
permanent Bluetooth connection, e. g. using 
the authorization or secure connection menu 
item, refer to your mobile phone's operating 
instructions.<
As soon as a mobile phone is recognized by the 
vehicle, the phone book entries stored on the 
SIM card or on the mobile phone are transferred 
to the vehicle. This procedure depends on your 
mobile phone, refer to the operating manual of 
your mobile phone, and may take several 
minutes.
If not all phone book entries are displayed:
>Transfer all phone book entries from the SIM 
card to the mobile phone, if necessary.

may not be displayed.

after the other. If you wish to pair a fifth mobile 
phone, the pairing data of the mobile phone
