General notes
Before using your Bluetooth
®
audio device
with COMAND Online for the first time, you
will need to authorise it.
When you authorise a new Bluetooth
®
audio
device, it is connected automatically. Con-
nection involves first searching for a Blue-
tooth
®
audio device and then authorising it.
You can authorise up to fifteen Bluetooth
®
devices.
i
If
you authorise 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 426)
R
in the Bluetooth
®
device list
(Y page 508)
Mercedes-Benz recommends authorising a
mobile phone in Bluetooth
®
telephony
(Y page 428).
i If the mobile phone that is connected only
supports two Bluetooth
®
profiles at the
same time, COMAND functions may
behave as follows:
R
when connecting to the Internet, play-
back is stopped on the Bluetooth
®
audio
device (Y page 471).
R
when starting playback on the Blue-
tooth
®
audio device, the Internet con-
nection is ended (Y page 472).
