Caller ID
The audio system can display the telephone
number and the name of the caller, e.
g. for
an incoming call and also in other menus or
displays.
For the telephone number to be displayed,
the caller must transmit their telephone num-
ber. Otherwise Unknown will be shown on the
audio display.
This is also the case for name displays. For
this, the telephone number and the name of
the caller must also be saved in the telephone
book.

Activating the mobile phone
Prerequisites for the mobile phone
For making calls using the audio system via
the Bluetooth
® interface, you will need a Blue-
tooth ® enabled mobile phone.
Before attempting to make or receive calls via
the Bluetooth
® interface, check your mobile
phone's hands-free profile. It must support
version 1.0 or higher (see mobile phone oper-
ating instructions).
i Not all mobile phones on the market are
suitable. Further information on suitable
mobile phones and on connecting Blue-
tooth
® enabled mobile phones to the audio
system are available from an authorized
Mercedes-Benz Center.
Activating Bluetooth ®
X Switch on the mobile phone (see mobile
phone operating instructions).
X Enter the PIN (not necessary with some
mobile phones or network).
X Activate Bluetooth ® connection on the
mobile phone (see mobile phone operating
instructions).
X Press button h on the audio control unit
to call up the telephone mode.
i On certain mobile phones, not only do you
have to activate the Bluetooth ® function
but your own device must additionally be
made “visible” for other devices.
Each Bluetooth
® device has a Bluetooth ®
device name. It is recommended to give
your mobile phone a personal name, by
which you can clearly recognize your
mobile phone.
i If the Bluetooth ® function on the audio
system is disabled, the message Blue-
tooth not activated in system set-
tings appears.
