BLUE&ME™ Hands-Free Communication
• To use the hands-free feature, you need a Bluetooth® wireless technology en-
abled mobile phone. This hands-free feature gives you the possibility of interact-
ing 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.
• Refer to the BLUE&ME™ User's Manual on the DVD for more details.
Pair Your Mobile Phone
• Press the VR steering wheel button and say, “Settings” then, 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 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

• 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.
Making A Phone Call
• Assume that “John Smith” is one of the contacts stored in your phonebook.
• To call John Smith, press 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
pressing the buttons on the back of the steering wheel until you find the required
number. Then, press the PRESET UP/OK button on the rear of the steering
wheel to start the call.
• To end the phone call, press the PHONE HANG UP button on the steering wheel.
