• 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. 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.

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-

• 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-

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,

Oil Change Request, Engine Oil Pressure Sensor Failure, External Light Failure,
Fuel Cut-Off Intervention, Fuel Cut-Off Not Available, Parking Sensor Failure.
- Power Steering System Warning
•This light is used to manage the electrical warning of the EPS (Electric Power SteeringSystem). 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 positionand back to ON/RUN. If the warning light stays on, contact your authorized Fiat Dealer.
If the warning light switches on while driving you may not have steering assistance.

• This light warns of an overheated engine condition.
• If the light turns on or flashes continuously while driving, safely pull over and stop
the vehicle. If the A/C system is on, turn it off. Also, shift the transmission into
NEUTRAL and idle the vehicle. If the temperature reading does not return to nor-
mal, turn the engine off immediately.
• We recommend that you do not operate the vehicle or engine damage will occur.

TTC (Torque Transfer Control)
• The TTC system uses the brakes to prevent unwanted wheelspin during corner-
ing, to maximize acceleration and minimize understeering during aggressive driv-
ing. This feature is active in all modes. While TTC is active, the “ESC” lamp in the
instrument cluster may flash.
- Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) Light
• Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked monthly when cold
and inflated to the inflation pressure recommended by the vehicle manufacturer
on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label. (If your vehicle has tires of a
different size than the size indicated on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pres-
sure label, you should determine the proper tire inflation pressure for those tires.)
• As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pressure telltale when one or
more of your tires is significantly under-inflated. Accordingly, when the low tire
pressure telltale illuminates, you should stop and check your tires as soon as
possible, and inflate them to the proper pressure. Driving on a significantly under-
inflated tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure. Under-inflation
also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect the vehicle’s han-
dling and stopping ability.
•IF THE LIGHT STARTS FLASHING INDICATING A LOW TIRE PRES-
SURE, ADJUST THE AIR PRESSURE IN THE LOW TIRE TO THE AIR
PRESSURE SHOWN ON THE VEHICLE PLACARD OR TIRE INFLATION
PRESSURE LABEL LOCATED ON THE DRIVER'S DOOR. NOTE: AFTER
INFLATION, THE VEHICLE MAY NEED TO BE DRIVEN FOR 20 MIN-
UTES BEFORE THE FLASHING LIGHT WILL TURN OFF.
•Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire maintenance, and it is
the driver’s responsibility to maintain correct tire pressure, even if under-inflation has
not reached the level to trigger illumination of the TPMS low tire pressure telltale.
• Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS malfunction indicator to indi-
cate when the system is not operating properly. The TPMS malfunction indicator
is combined with the low tire pressure telltale. When the system detects a mal-
function, the telltale will flash for approximately one minute and then remain con-
tinuously illuminated. This sequence will continue upon subsequent vehicle start-
ups as long as the malfunction exists.
• When the malfunction indicator is illuminated, the system may not be able to de-
tect or signal low tire pressure as intended. TPMS malfunctions may occur for a
variety of reasons, including the installation of replacement or alternate tires or
wheels on the vehicle that prevent the TPMS from functioning properly. Always
check the TPMS malfunction telltale after replacing one or more tires or wheels
on your vehicle, to ensure that the replacement or alternate tires and wheels al-
low the TPMS to continue to function properly.
