• 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 push the PHONE/MENU button on
the steering wheel when you have finished. Certain mobile phones may require
you to indicate that you do not want to be asked every time to copy the phone-
book. If this is the case, this could be indicated by checking a box during on the
phone the pairing process. If applicable, this option will only be presented on the
phone during the pairing process.
Making A Phone Call
• Assume that “John Smith” is one of the contacts stored in your phonebook.
• To call John Smith, push the steering wheel button PHONE/MENU and pro-
nounce “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”).
• If John Smith has several phone numbers but the “location” (e.g.: the type of
phone number like work, home, etc.) is missing, the system will display the se-
lected contact and a list of related phone numbers on the instrument cluster dis-
play. 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 navi-
gate 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
pushing the buttons on the back of the steering wheel until you find the required
number. Then, push the PRESET UP/OK button on the rear of the steering wheel
to start the call.
• To end the phone call, push the PHONE HANG UP button on the steering wheel.
Media Player
• With the BLUE&ME™ media player you can play, via the car sound system, the
digital audio files stored on a USB device by simply connecting it to the USB port
located on the center console of the car.
• The MEDIA PLAYER menu enables the following:
– Display tracks stored on your USB stick/iPod®.
– Play audio files stored on your USB stick/iPod® (BLUE&ME™ recognizes .wma,
.mp3 and .wav, .aac formats for audio files and .wpl and .m3u for playlists).
