BLUE&ME™settings, refer to TROUBLESHOOTING.
Pairing a Mobile Phone
Before you can use your mobile phone with the hands-
free communication function on your car, you must
create a pairing relationship between the mobile phone
and the hands-free communication system.
During the pairing procedure, the hands-free communi-
cation system attempts to detect aBluetoothwireless
technology enabled mobile phone within range, and then
establishes the connection using a Personal Identification
Number (PIN). After a pairing relationship is established,
you can use the hands-free communication system to
make and receive phone calls, and do other operations
via your wirelessly-connected mobile phone.NOTE:Some mobile phones may require a setting
change or access permission change in order for
BLUE&ME™to automatically reconnect. See your mo-
bile phones manual for more information.
IMPORTANT!The mobile phone pairing PIN number is
a special PIN generated randomly at each new pairing
and used just for this operation. It is not your SIM PIN
and therefore it is not required to store or to keep it in
mind; losing it will not impair the hands-free communi-
cation system operation.
The pairing procedure will only need to be performed
once for your mobile phone. After this procedure
BLUE&ME™will automatically connect to your phone
each time you get into the car and turn the ignition key to
ON.
You can create a pairing relationship using thePAIRING
option in theSETTINGSmenu.

BLUE&ME™ User’s Manual 57

To create a pairing relationship using manual interaction,
proceed as follows:
Press the
/MAINbutton to open the Main Menu, then
selectSETTINGSby pressing thePRESET UP/OKbut-
ton.
SelectPAIRINGand then press thePRESET UP/OK
button. The system will start the pairing procedure.
BLUE&ME™will show the mobile phone pairing PIN
on the instrument panel display and announces it. Please
note that this is a PIN used just for this operation; it is not
your SIM PIN.
For the next two steps, consult your mobile phone
owner ’s manual aboutBluetoothpairing.
On your mobile phone, query forBluetoothwireless
technology enabled mobile phones that are within range
(this option on your mobile phone might be called
Discover, New Device, etc.). View the list ofBluetoothwireless technology enabled mobile phones and select
BLUE&ME™(item that identifiesBLUE&ME™on your
car).
When prompted by the mobile phone, enter the PIN
number shown on the instrument panel display. If pair-
ing is successful, the system will say“Connecting”and
then the display will show the paired mobile phone ID.
It is of vital importance to wait until this confirmation
message is displayed, since pressing the
/MAIN
button or the
/ESCbutton will cancel the pairing
process. If pairing fails, an error message will be dis-
played and the pairing procedure needs to be repeated.
After pairing, the system will say“Welcome”immedi-
ately after connecting. This message will no longer be
heard the next time the phone connects to the system.
The system will ask if you would like to copy your paired
phone’s phonebook. It is recommended to copy it. To
