BLUE&ME™ Hands-Free Communication
•To use the hands-free feature, you need a Bluetooth® wireless technology enabled
mobile phone.This hands-free feature gives you the possibility of interacting vocally
with your mobile phone while driving, even if your mobile device does not feature this
capability.You can also interact with your mobile phone manually and visually using the
steering wheel controls and the instrument panel Electronic Vehicle Information Center
(EVIC) display.
•To get started with BLUE&ME™ hands-free feature with voice recognition, you have to
simply pair your Bluetooth® wireless technology enabled mobile phone with the
system.
Pair Your Mobile Phone
•Push the VR button on the steering wheel then “Settings.” At the end of the
BLUE&ME™ message say “Pairing.” You may also access the pairing feature via the
menu by selecting it.
•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 proce-
dures for your phone.
•On your mobile phone, search for devices equipped with Bluetooth® wireless technol-
ogy (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.Pushing
PHONE/MENU button on the steering wheel or MUTE/ESC button before the mes-
sage 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™.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 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 phonebook.If this is the case, this could be indicated by
checking a box on the phone during 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, proceed as follows:
1.Push the VR steering wheel button and pronounce “Call John Smith.” If the name is
recognized, the system will display the recognized contact’s information on the display
screen.
2.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”).
3.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 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 re-
spond with “Yes,” pronounce “Yes,” otherwise say “No.” If this is the correct contact
but the wrong number, say “Forward” or “Backward” to navigate to the phone num-
ber 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 PRESET
UP/OK button on the rear of the steering wheel to start the call.
4.To end the phone call, push the PHONE HANG UP button on the steering wheel.

- Seat Belt Reminder Light
When the ignition switch is first turned to the ON/RUN position, this light will turn on
for four to eight seconds as a bulb check.During the bulb check, if the driver's seat belt
is unbuckled, a chime will sound.After the bulb check or when driving, if the driver or
front passenger seat belt remains unbuckled, the Seat Belt Indicator Light will flash or
remain on continuously.Refer to “Seat Belt Systems” in “Things To Know Before Starting”
in your Owner’s Manual on the DVD for further information.
- Power Steering System Warning
This light is used to manage the electrical warning of the EPS (Electric Power Steering
System).When the ignition is turned to the ON/RUN position, the warning light will illu-
minate momentarily.If the warning light stays on, cycle the ignition to the OFF position
and back to ON/RUN.If the warning light stays on, contact your authorized dealer.
If the warning light switches on while driving, you may not have steering assistance.
Although it will still be possible to steer the car, the effort needed to operate the steer-
ing wheel could be increased: contact an authorized dealer as soon as possible.
- Service Propulsion System Warning Light
The Service Propulsion System Warning Light will illuminate if there is a malfunction de-
tected with the Propulsion System.If the light comes on or remains on while driving, see
your authorized dealer.
- Brake Warning Light
This light monitors various brake functions, including brake fluid level and parking brake
application.If the brake light turns on, it may indicate that the parking brake is applied,
that the brake fluid level is low, or that there is a problem with the anti-lock brake sys-
tem reservoir.
If the light remains on when the parking brake has been disengaged, and the fluid level is
at the full mark on the master cylinder reservoir, it indicates a possible brake hydraulic
system malfunction or that a problem with the Brake Booster has been detected by the
Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS)/Electronic Stability Control (ESC) system.In this case, the
light will remain on until the condition has been corrected.If the problem is related to
the brake booster, the ABS pump will run when applying the brake, and a brake pedal
pulsation may be felt during each stop.
The dual brake system provides a reserve braking capacity in the event of a failure to a
portion of the hydraulic system.A leak in either half of the dual brake system is indicated
by the Brake Warning Light, which will turn on when the brake fluid level in the master
cylinder has dropped below a specified level.The light will remain on until the cause is
corrected.
Vehicles equipped with the Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) are also equipped with Electronic
Brake Force Distribution (EBD).In the event of an EBD failure, the Brake Warning Light will
turn on along with the ABS Light.Immediate repair to the ABS system is required.
