how can I upload my phone directory from a bluetooth LG cell phone into the 2011 C300
I just took delivery of my 2011 C300 Sport sedan and am having no luck uploading the telephone directory of my LG cell phone. The phone has paired nicely with the car, and receives and sends calls nicely, but I can't even find owner's manuals instructions regarding transferring my phone directory. This was doable in my previous, 2008 C300. This car has an option that suggests you can "transfer business cards", but the owner's manual doesn't even mention that.
I'd greatly appreciate any help that would avoid my having to indivdually enter my many, mant telephone entries.
Thank you.

I have a 2008 C300 & I can't figure out how to even manually enter my phone directory. I have a 2010 manual & it doesn't have instructions to manually enter or upload.
Any help would be appreciated.. Thanks

Here's a helpful link on how to pair your phone via bluetooth
http://www.mercedes-benz-mobile.com/...tro_select.php
iT will ask for the model and year of your vehicle, then click bluetooth enable phones. Then you can either select a particular phone model by carrier or you can just click compare all. Once you selected your phone click on the downloads and printouts which is available in PDF format that will guide you to the step by step process. Blackberry is not in the list but most manufacturers are.

I finally figured it out last night & downloaded mine today. I have a Samsung phone & when I go to "groups" & hit options it gives me an option to "send name card". I choose "send name card" & it gives me a "Bluetooth" option. I choose "Bluetooth" option and all the names in my directory appear. I choose all the names, choose Done & then choose the device. It then says "connect to MB Bluetooth?" - hit "yes" & the directory downloads. Make sure on the Audio that you have chosen "Download Vcards" Hope this helps!

The owners manual only mentions Vcards - I think that is what is confusing everyone. But it's the same thing as the phone directory. I finally figured mine out Saturday night & downloaded my phone directory yesterday.

I had my contact list entered from the LGVX8360, but can you also enter numbers manually from the keypad? No nav, with Audio20. Can't find anything in the manual.
