Switching on and changing telephony
operating modes
Overview
COMAND Online starts the telephony mode
depending on whether:
telephone module with Bluetooth® (SAP
profile) is inserted into the fittings or not
Ra mobile phone bracket is inserted or not
Depending on which mobile phone bracket is
inserted, COMAND Online starts telephony
via the Bluetooth® interface.
If neither a telephone module with Bluetooth® (SAP profile) nor a mobile phone
bracket is inserted, COMAND Online immediately starts the telephony over the Bluetooth® interface.
Ra
Activating with inserted telephone
module with Bluetooth® (SAP profile)
If a telephone module with Bluetooth® (SAP
profile) is inserted, COMAND Online starts
the SAP telephony.
i If no telephone module with Bluetooth®
(SAP profile) is inserted, COMAND Online
checks whether a mobile phone bracket is
inserted and, if so, which type.
i Before using your telephone module with
Bluetooth® (SAP profile) for the first time,
you need to set it up so that it will be recognised by COMAND Online; see the separate operating instructions of the dataenabled telephone module with Bluetooth® (SAP profile).
If no mobile phone is connected to the dataenabled telephone module with Bluetooth®
(SAP profile), the Ready for Bluetooth
telephony... message appears. Approximately two minutes after switching on
COMAND Online, a prompt will appear asking
whether you wish to switch to Bluetooth® telephony.
If you confirm by selecting Yes, the Ready
for Bluetooth telephony... message
will appear. COMAND Online will search for
the two mobile phones last connected via the
Bluetooth® interface. If one of the two mobile
phones is found, the telephone basic menu
for Bluetooth® telephony appears
(Y page 432). If neither of the mobile phones
is found, the Ready for Bluetooth tel‐
ephony... message remains in the display.
You can now connect your mobile phone
(Y page 426).
If you choose No, the Ready for SAP tel‐
ephony... message reappears.
Activating without a telephone module
with Bluetooth® (SAP profile)
Bluetooth® telephony is started
COMAND Online starts telephony via the
Bluetooth® interface and searches for the last
two mobile phones to have been connected
via the Bluetooth® interface. If one of the two
mobile phones is found, the telephone basic
menu for Bluetooth® telephony appears
(Y page 432). If neither of the mobile phones
is found, the Ready for Bluetooth tel‐
ephony... message remains in the display.
You now have to connect your mobile phone
(Y page 426).
i If you do not connect another mobile
phone via the phone list, the Bluetooth®
connection with the mobile phone remains
active until the next time COMAND Online
is switched off. While the Bluetooth® connection is active, only the Bluetooth® interface functions are available to you.
COMAND Online
is displayed as soon as the message memory is full. The symbol disappears once you delete
at least one message.

Before using Bluetooth® audio mode, you
must check your Bluetooth® audio device for
the following (see the Bluetooth® audio device's operating instructions):
COMAND Online
RBluetooth®
audio profile
The Bluetooth® audio device must support
the A2DP and AVRCP Bluetooth® audio
profiles.
RBluetooth® visibility
Certain Bluetooth® audio devices require
more than simply activating the Bluetooth® function. In addition, your device
must be made "visible" to other devices.
RBluetooth® device name
This device name is predetermined but can
usually be changed. To make a clear selection of the Bluetooth® device possible,
Mercedes-Benz recommends that you customise the device name (see the Bluetooth® audio device's operating instructions).
i A2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution
Profile): Bluetooth® audio profile for audio
data transmission
AVRCP (Audio Video Remote Control
Profile): Bluetooth® audio profile for audio
data playback
You can authorise up to fifteen Bluetooth®
devices.
i If you authorise a mobile phone that supports Bluetooth® audio, the A2DP and
AVRCP Bluetooth® audio profiles are connected automatically.
The mobile phone is then entered:
the Bluetooth® telephone list
(Y page 426)
Rin 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:
Rwhen
connecting to the Internet, playback is stopped on the Bluetooth® audio
device (Y page 471).
Rwhen starting playback on the Bluetooth® audio device, the Internet connection is ended (Y page 472).
Searching for and authorising a Bluetooth® audio device
i The Bluetooth® device must be visible for
authorisation. It will then be subsequently
found by COMAND Online whether it is visible or not.
On COMAND Online
Activate the Bluetooth® function in
COMAND Online (Y page 379).
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. Connection involves first searching for a Bluetooth® audio device and then authorising it.
Example: Bluetooth® device list
: Bluetooth® audio player within range and
already authorised
; Newly detected mobile phone with Blue-
tooth® audio function in range
Media
509
The Bluetooth® device list displays all authorised devices, whether they are within range
or not. After a device search, devices which
are within range but not authorised are also
displayed.
Switch on Bluetooth® audio mode
(Y page 511).
If you see the No Bluetooth audio
device authorised message, you will
need to authorise the Bluetooth® audio
device first.

audio devices within range and adds them
to the Bluetooth® device list.
The duration of the search depends on the
number of Bluetooth® audio devices within
range and their characteristics.
i With some Bluetooth® audio devices,
playback must first be started on the device
itself so that COMAND Online can play the
audio files. Sometimes, Bluetooth® must
also be given as a media output location on
the audio device.
To authorise: select a Bluetooth® audio
device that has not yet been authorised
from the list (in example ;).
Authorisation starts.
X Depending on the Bluetooth® audio device
used, you now have two options for continuing with authorisation.
X Option 1: enter the passkey. You can find
information on this in the "Authorising (registering) a mobile phone" section
(Y page 428).
After successful authorisation, the Bluetooth® audio device is connected and
starts playing.
X Option 2 (Secure Simple Pairing): if the
digit codes displayed in COMAND Online
and on the Bluetooth® audio device are the
same, select Yes.
If you select Yes, authorisation continues
and the Bluetooth® audio device is connected. Playback starts.
If you select No, authorisation will be cancelled.
i The Bluetooth® audio device must support Bluetooth® version 2.1 for connection
via Secure Simple Pairing.
COMAND Online creates a six-digit code,
which is simultaneously displayed on both
devices that are to be connected.
For some Bluetooth® audio devices, the
pairing must be confirmed within 10 seconds.

Important safety notes
G WARNING
The CD/DVD drive is a class 1 laser product.
If you open the housing of the CD/DVD drive,
invisible laser beams may be released. These
laser beams may damage your retina. There
is a risk of injury.
Media
G WARNING
Handling discs while driving will distract you
from traffic conditions. You could then lose
control of the vehicle. There is a risk of an
accident.
Handle discs only when the vehicle is stationary.
Bear in mind that, at a speed of only
50 km/h, your vehicle is already covering a
distance of 14 m per second.
Notes on discs
! Do not affix stickers or labels to the discs.
They could peel off and damage
COMAND Online. Stickers can cause the
disc to bend, which can result in read errors
and disc recognition problems.
! COMAND Online is designed to play discs
which comply with the EN 60908 standard.
Therefore, you can only use discs with a
maximum thickness of 1.3 mm.
If you insert thicker discs, e.g. those that
contain data on both sides (DVD on one
side and audio data on the other), they cannot be ejected and can damage the device.
Only use round discs with a diameter of
12 cm. Do not use discs with a diameter of
8 cm, even with an adapter.
The variety of data media, burners and burn
software means there is no guarantee that
the system will be able to play discs that you
have copied yourself.
DVD playback requirements
COMAND Online is capable of playing back
video DVDs produced according to the following standards:
RRegion
code 2 (for Europe) or region code
0 (no region code)
RPAL or NTSC standard
You will generally find the relevant details
either on the DVD itself or on the DVD case.
i If you insert a video DVD with a different
region code, you will see a message to this
effect.
i COMAND Online is set to region code 2
at the factory. This setting can be changed
at a Mercedes-Benz Service Centre. This
will allow you to play video DVDs with a different region code, provided that they are
produced in accordance with the PAL or
NTSC standard. The region code can be
changed a maximum of five times.
Control options
There are four control menus available in
video DVD mode.
