FIAT 500E 2014 2.G Workshop Manual

•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.Pressing
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™ 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 instruc-
tions 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 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 pair-
ing 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.Press 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”).

WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES
56

Partial Off
This mode is entered by momentarily pressing the ESC Off switch.This mode is intended
for times when a more spirited driving experience is desired.It is also intended for driv-
ing in deep snow, sand or gravel conditions, when more wheel spin than ESC would nor-
mally allow is required to gain traction.To turn ESC on again, momentarily press the
switch again.This will restore the normal ESC On mode of operation.
Full Off
This mode is intended for off-highway or off-road use only and should not be used on
public roadways.In this mode, all TCS and ESC stability features are turned OFF, except
for the limited slip feature described in the TCS section.To enter the “Full Off ” mode,
depress and hold the ESC OFF switch for five seconds.After five seconds, the ESC OFF
Indicator Light will illuminate, and the “ESC OFF” message will display in the EVIC.To turn
ESC ON again, momentarily press the ESC OFF switch.
- Electronic Stability Control (ESC) Activation / Malfunction
Indicator Light
The “ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light” in the instrument cluster will come on
for four seconds when the ignition switch is turned to the ON/RUN position.If the “ESC
Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light” comes on continuously with the engine running, a
malfunction has been detected in the ESC system.If this light remains on, see your
authorized dealer as soon as possible to have the problem diagnosed and corrected.
NOTE:
•The “ESC Off Indicator Light” and the “ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light”
come on momentarily each time the ignition switch is turned to ON/RUN.
•Each time the ignition is turned to ON/RUN, the ESC system will be ON even if it
was turned off previously.
•ESC Activation/Malfunction Light can blink during a ESC or TC intervention.
- 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 pressure 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 Moni-
toring 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 tell-
tale 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 handling and stopping ability.
WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES

•IF THE LIGHT STARTS FLASHING INDICATING A LOW TIRE PRESSURE, 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 minutes 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 indicate
when the system is not operating properly.The TPMS malfunction indicator is com-
bined with the low tire pressure telltale.When the system detects a malfunction, the
telltale will flash for approximately one minute and then remain continuously illumi-
nated.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 detect
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 mal-
function telltale after replacing one or more tires or wheels on your vehicle, to ensure
that the replacement or alternate tires and wheels allow the TPMS to continue to
function properly.
NOTE:
Tire pressures change by approximately 1 psi (7 kPa) per 12° F (7° C) of air tempera-
ture change.Keep this in mind when checking tire pressure inside a garage, especially in
the Winter.Example: If garage temperature is 68°F (20°C) and the outside temperature
is 32°F (0°C), then the cold tire inflation pressure should be increased by 3 psi (21 kPa),
which equals 1 psi (7 kPa) for every 12°F (7°C) for this outside temperature condition.
CAUTION!
The TPMS has been optimized for the original equipment tires and wheels.TPMS pres-
sures and warning have been established for the tire size equipped on your vehicle.
Undesirable system operation or sensor damage may result when using replacement
equipment that is not of the same size, type, and/or style.Aftermarket wheels can cause
sensor damage.Do not use tire sealant from a can, or balance beads if your vehicle is
equipped with a TPMS, as damage to the sensors may result.
