Procedure and general information
Authorizing a mobile phone (connecting)
If you connect your mobile phone using NFC
(Near Field Communication) the NFC area of
your mobile phone has to touch the NFC logo
on the DVD changer/single DVD drive. The
authorization then starts automatically. The
NFC range varies depending on the mobile
phone and can be identified by the logo. Fur-
ther information; see the manufacturer's
operating instructions.
If you use your mobile phone with COMAND
without NFC, you must search for it
( page 142) and then authorize it
Y
( page 142). Depending on the mobile
Y
phone, authorization either takes place by
means of Secure Simple Pairing or by enter-
ing a passkey. COMAND automatically ena-
bles the procedure suited to your mobile
phone. You can recognize Secure Simple Pair-
ing by a code which is displayed in COMAND
and on the mobile phone. You can recognize
the passkey system by the fact that you have
to enter a code on the mobile phone and in
COMAND. The mobile phone is always con-
nected automatically after authorization.
If COMAND does not detect your mobile
phone, this may be due to particular security
settings on your mobile phone. You can also
start the search procedure and authorization
on the mobile phone ( page 143).
