By choosing from the menu of the terminal window you open the Interface Window for your mobile phone. This shows a comprehensive view of the status and data present on the phone including the phonebook. There are twos list of phonebook data: one representing the KDE address book; the other representing the data on the phone.
You can read the phone books by pressing the button right under the corresponding list. By pressing the button you write back the data shown in the list to the corresponding phonebook. By pressing you can store the mobile phonebook as list of comma-separated values to disk. After loading the phonebook data using the buttons you can merge the phonebooks by pressing the button: this will put data only present in one of the phonebooks into the other and vice versa; if conflicts occur during this process, a dialog pops up.
The button performs all the actions needed for syncing the phonebooks. It reads the data from the KDE addressbook and the mobile phone, does the merge and writes it back.
