i The passcode is any number chosen by
you between one and sixteen digits in
length. We recommend to use at least four
digits because this improves the quality of
the encryption during connection. The
passcode can differ during each
authorization for each device. You must
enter the same number on COMAND and
on the device to be authorized. Please also
refer to the instructions in the mobile
phone operating guide.

Enter the same passcode on the mobile
phone as you did on COMAND.
The device is authorized. You can now
make calls via COMAND's hands-free
device using the authorized mobile phone.

If COMAND cannot find your mobile phone,
this may be due to special security settings
on your mobile phone. In this case, you can
check whether, conversely, your mobile
phone can find COMAND.
