Using call lists
Introduction
COMAND displays lists of calls received (including missed calls) and made during phone operation. Call lists are not available unless a mobile phone is connected to COMAND.
COMAND supports the PBAP Bluetooth® profile. How COMAND processes call lists depends on the model of the mobile phone connected:
RBluetooth® telephone with PBAP
Bluetooth® profile:
The call lists are downloaded automatically from the mobile phone by COMAND as soon as the mobile phone is connected to COMAND.
RBluetooth® telephone without PBAP
Bluetooth® profile:
COMAND creates the call lists from calls dialed and received (including missed calls) as soon as the mobile phone is connected with COMAND.
i For Bluetooth® telephones without the PBAP Bluetooth® profile, the call lists in COMAND are not synchronized with those on your mobile phone. These calls may or may not be listed on your mobile phone, depending on the model.
i If no mobile phone is connected, then the Call Lists menu item is grayed out and cannot be selected. If you connect a mobile phone other than the previous one to COMAND, the previously available call lists and their entries will be deleted automatically. They are still available on the mobile phone itself.
i The respective menu item can only be
selected if calls have already been made or received in COMAND.
Displaying missed calls in the COMAND display is not supported by all mobile phones.

Introduction
G WARNING Please devote your attention first and foremost to the traffic situation you are in.
Before your journey, please familiarize yourself with the address book functions.
Only use the COMAND when road and traffic conditions permit you to do so. Otherwise you could be involved in an accident in which you or others could be injured.
The address book organizes and stores entries which are entered from different sources (mobile phone, memory card, USB device, COMAND telephone book, navigation system).

i Number of contacts in the address
book: the address book can store a total of 4000 contacts. 1500 entries are reserved in the address book for mobile phone contacts and 1500 for contacts you create in COMAND or import from other sources. The remaining 1000 entries are assigned by COMAND as necessary.
i Display of mobile phone contacts: contacts downloaded from the mobile phone remain in the address book even if the mobile phone is disconnected from COMAND. This means that contacts which have previously been available can be displayed as soon as the mobile phone is reconnected. The contacts are downloaded again so that any new contacts that have been added to the mobile phone can be displayed.
136 Using the address book
When a new mobile phone is connected to COMAND, all the contacts from the previous mobile phone are deleted from the address book.
If a mobile phone is not (yet) connected to COMAND, the contacts from that mobile phone will not (yet) be shown in the address book.
