Pair Your Mobile Phone
•Press the VR steering wheel button and say “Settings” then, at the end of the BLUE&ME™
message say “Pairing”.
• The system will show the phone pairing PIN number on the EVIC display. For the next two
steps, consult your mobile phone owner’s manual about Bluetooth
®pairing procedures for your
phone.
• On your mobile phone, search for devices equipped with Bluetooth
®wireless technology (the
setting on your mobile phone might be called Discover or New Device). In this list you will find
BLUE&ME™ (name identifying the BLUE&ME™ system on your car): select it.
• When prompted by the mobile phone, enter the PIN number shown on the instrument panel
display using your mobile phone keypad. If pairing is successful, the system will say “Connecting”
and at the end the display will show as confirmation message, the ID of the paired mobile
phone.
• It is essential to wait until you see this confirmation message on the display. Pressing the
PHONE/MAIN button on the steering wheel or the MUTE/ESC button before the message is
displayed may cancel the pairing process. If the pairing process fails, an error message will be
displayed: in this event repeat the pairing procedure.
• At first pairing, BLUE&ME™ will say “Welcome” immediately after connecting.This message will
no longer be heard when your phone automatically connects to the BLUE&ME™ system on
future ignition cycles.
• BLUE&ME™ will ask if you would like to copy your paired phone phonebook to BLUE&ME™. It
is recommended to copy it.To start copying the phonebook say “Yes”, otherwise say “No”.
• For certain mobile phones the phonebook is not copied automatically, in this case you must
transfer the phonebook contacts using your mobile phone keypad. If BLUE&ME™ asks you to
do this, then perform this procedure following the instructions specific to your mobile phone
and press the PHONE/MAIN button on the steering wheel when you have finished.
Making a Phone Call
• Assume that “John Smith” is one of the contacts stored in your phonebook.
• To call John Smith, proceed as follows:
• Press the steering wheel button PHONE/MAIN and pronounce “Call John Smith”.
• If the name is recognized, the system will display the recognized contact’s information on the
display screen.
• If there is just one phone number for John Smith in your phonebook, the system will ask if you
would like to call John Smith.To start the call say “Yes”, otherwise say “No”.
• If John Smith has several phone numbers, the system will ask which phone number you would
like to call (e.g.:“Call John Smith (at) Work or (at) Home?”).Answer with the type of required
phone number (e.g.:“(at) Home”).

•If John Smith has several phone numbers but the “location” (i.e.: the type of phone number like
work, home, etc.) is missing, the system will display the selected contact and a list of related
phone numbers on the instrument cluster display.The hands-free phone system will ask if you
would like to call the phone number displayed.To respond with “yes”, say “Yes”, otherwise say
“No”. If this is the correct contact but the wrong number, say “Forward” or “Backward” to
navigate to the phone number you’d like to call.To call the displayed phone number, pronounce
“Call”.You can also scroll through the phone number list manually by pressing the buttons on the
back of the steering wheel until you find the required number.Then, press the PRESET UP/OK

If the temperature reading does not return to normal, turn the engine off immediately.
• We recommend that you do not operate the vehicle or engine damage will occur. Have the
vehicle serviced immediately.
WARNING!
A hot engine cooling system is dangerous.You or others could be badly burned by
steam or boiling coolant.You may want to call an authorized service center for service if
your vehicle overheats.
WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES
39
•Battery power is required to release the brake/transmission interlock system (automatic
transmission only).There is a removable plug in the right side of the shift lever housing that
allows you to insert your finger to override the system.The ignition key must be in the
ON/RUN position to use the override lever.
CAUTION!
•Failure to follow these towing methods can cause severe transmission damage. Such
damage is not covered by the New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
• DO NOT flat tow any vehicle equipped with an automatic transmission. Damage to
the drivetrain will result.
• If the vehicle being towed requires steering, the ignition switch must be in the
ON/RUN position.
• Do not attempt to use sling-type equipment when towing.When securing the
vehicle to a flatbed truck, do not attach to front or rear suspension components.
Damage to your vehicle may result from improper towing.
ENHANCED ACCIDENT RESPONSE SYSTEM
•In the event of an impact causing airbag deployment, if the communication network remains
intact, and the power remains intact, depending on the nature of the event the ORC will
determine whether to have the Enhanced Accident Response System perform the following
functions:
•Cut off fuel to the engine.
• Flash hazard lights as long as the battery has power or until the ignition key is turned off.
• Turn on the interior lights, which remain on as long as the battery has power or until the
ignition key is removed.
• Unlock the doors automatically.
• After the event occurs, when the system is active, the message "Fuel Cutoff See Handbook" is
displayed.
• Carefully check the vehicle for fuel leaks in the engine compartment and on the ground near
the engine compartment and fuel tank before resetting the system and starting the engine.
NOTE: In order to start the engine and move the vehicle to a safe location after an impact, the
System Reset Procedure must be completed.
WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES
57
System Reset Procedure
•After an impact causing airbag deployment, the left and right turn signal lights, located in the
instrument panel cluster, will both be blinking, until the ignition is turned off.
• In order to move your vehicle to the side of the road you must follow the system reset
procedure.

FREEING A STUCK VEHICLE
•If your vehicle becomes stuck in mud, sand or snow, it can often be moved by a rocking motion.
Turn your steering wheel right and left to clear the area around the front wheels.Then shift
back and forth between DRIVE/1st gear and REVERSE. Using minimal accelerator pedal
pressure to maintain the rocking motion, without spinning the wheels, is most effective.
NOTE: If your vehicle is equipped with Traction Control or Electronic Stability Control (ESC),
turn the system OFF before attempting to “rock” the vehicle.
CAUTION!
• Racing the engine or spinning the wheels may lead to transmission overheating and
failure.Allow the engine to idle with the shift lever in NEUTRAL for at least one
minute after every five rocking-motion cycles.This will minimize overheating and
reduce the risk of transmission failure during prolonged efforts to free a stuck
vehicle.
• When “rocking” a stuck vehicle by moving between DRIVE/1st and REVERSE, do not
spin the wheels faster than 15 mph (24 km/h), or drivetrain damage may result.
• Revving the engine or spinning the wheels too fast may lead to transmission
overheating and failure. It can also damage the tires. Do not spin the wheels above
30 mph (48 km/h) while in gear (no transmission shifting occurring).
