Before a got my fiesta there was a thread about the phone book, I can't seen to find it now. Can anyone link me to it or maybe tell me how to bring up the phone book on the car. My phone is a LG viewty so its compatible.

    Check in the manual but i think the contacts need to be on the sim, not the phone. Then when you turn it on and the phone is connected via bluetooth it takes about 10 secs for the phonebook to show up under the Phone tab on the dash :) hope this helps.

    Edit: This might be the topic you were on about.

    You've got it mixed up! The contacts have to be stored on the phone and not the SIM card! :lol:

    It's set to visible. Contacts are on the handset. I think half the problem is I'm useless with mobile phone settings.
