Default 1996 E320 Phone operation

Hello, everyone! A quick Question today: To make my story short: a few days ago, upon starting my car, the antenna decided to go up, & the phone came on...I never use the phone & never have---then, the antenna proceeded to go up / down on its' own & the phone would turn on...I eventually discovered the fuse for the phone was beneath the rear seat, and removed it...now, the antenna behaves itself, BUT the radio's display shows" PHONE ", and I cannot use any of the radios functions...HELP!! Thanks for your kind considerations...Sincerely, Michael.

Try removing the fuses for the radio and amplifier or just disconenct battery for a few minutes. Then,reconnect and re enter security code for the radio. I had a few "Phone" error codes with my car until I completly removed the phone handset asembly and transceiver in the trunk, as it was a eurpoean model and I use handheld cell phones anyway.
