Bluetooth cellphone 2012 gl450?

The Command/radio unit in my 2012 gl450 has a red and green telephone logo on the side bar and the display shows Bluetooth ready and none detected even though my iPhone with Bluetooth turned on is close by.

Do I need a soft ware update? Can my Command unit be updated so it will connect with my iPhone?

Have you paired your phone to the vehicle? Instructions can be found in your manual. If you don't have a manual, those can be found online or we can post links/pdfs here.
