SPORT MODE
• In Sport mode, the engine is more responsive to the throttle pedal, and provides
more power by increasing turbo boost.
• Steering feedback is also improved, and steering effort is slightly higher.
• Sport mode driving is useful while driving on winding roads where more steering
precision is desired.
To activate Sport Mode
• Press the SPORT button, located
above the climate controls.
• Momentarily release the accelerator
pedal.
• Press the accelerator pedal again to
activate.
NOTE:
• Once SPORT mode is activated, a
“SPORT” message will be displayed in
the instrument cluster.
• For maximum aerodynamics and han-
dling, your vehicle has a lowered ride
height. Use caution when entering steep driveways and parking spaces to pre-
vent damage.
MANUAL TRANSMISSION
• Be sure the transmission is in first gear, not third, when starting from a standing
position. Damage to the clutch can result from starting in third gear.
• Never drive with your foot resting on the clutch pedal, and never try to hold the
vehicle on a hill with the clutch pedal partially engaged. This will cause abnormal
wear on the clutch.
NOTE:
• Never shift into REVERSE until the vehicle has come to a complete stop.
• During cold weather, until the transmission lubricant is warm, you may experience
slightly higher shift efforts. This is normal and not harmful to the transmission.
OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE

At the end of step 7 the top will automatically cycle to the fully open position, and
then close to the 1/4 open position.
This will confirm that the relearn procedure was successful.
Auto Open/Close will now be functional. Trunk lid operation will be functional.
Remote Keyless Power Top Function will be functional.
NOTE:
DO NOT interrupt this activity.
If the power convertible top does not relearn repeat the procedure a second time.
Wind Stop
The Wind Stop installs in the backseat area of the vehicle. The Wind Stop will not inter-
fere with power top operation. Therefore, it can remain installed when the top is up.
WIND BUFFETING
• Wind buffeting can be described as a helicopter-type percussion sound. If buffet-
ing occurs with the windows down, adjust one or both windows up or down
slightly.
• If buffeting occurs with the sunroof open, adjust the sunroof opening, or adjust
any window. This will minimize buffeting.
ENGINE BLOCK HEATER
• To prevent possible engine damage while starting at low temperatures, this ve-
hicle will inhibit engine cranking when the ambient temperature is less than
–22° F (–30° C) and the oil temperature sensor reading indicates an engine block
heater has not been used. An externally-powered electric engine block heater is
available as optional equipment or from your authorized studio.
• The message "plug in engine heater" will be displayed in the instrument cluster
when the ambient temperature is below 5° F (–15° C) at the time the engine is
shut off as a reminder to avoid possible crank delays at the next cold start.

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 instru-
ment 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/MENU button on the steering wheel or the MUTE/ESC but-
ton 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 in-
structions specific to your mobile phone and press the PHONE/MENU 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/MENU and pronounce “Call John Smith”.
• If the name is recognized, the system will display the recognized contact’s infor-
mation 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 num-
ber you would like to call (e.g.: “Call John Smith (at) Work or (at) Home?”). An-
swer with the type of required phone number (e.g.: “(at) Home”).
