Stock bluetooth functionality?
When I first purchased my S550 I wasn't aware of the requirement of a separate bluetooth puck (and my car didn't have one).
Despite the lack of a puck, I was able to search for, and connect to my phone, it just didn't actually do anything from that point.
So, clearly the car has some built in bluetooth functionality, but what does it actually do? Connecting to a phone that you cannot make or receive calls from seems a bit strange. What am I missing?

I feel like maybe nobody is reading my question... I understand how to use the puck. I have it, I'm paired, all is good.
I'm just trying to understand what the bluetooth in the car does (sans puck), and it sounds like it just loads contacts, which is a strange and relatively useless feature unless I'm missing something else here
