Research has shown that seat belts save lives, and they
can reduce the seriousness of injuries in a collision. Some
of the worst injuries happen when people are thrown
from the vehicle. Seat belts reduce the possibility of
ejection and the risk of injury caused by striking the
inside of the vehicle. Everyone in a motor vehicle should
be belted at all times.
Enhanced Seat Belt Use Reminder System
(BeltAlert)
BeltAlert is a feature intended to remind the driver
and outboard front passenger (if equipped with out-
board front passenger BeltAlert) to buckle their seat
belts. The feature is active whenever the ignition
switch is in the START or ON/RUN position. If the
driver or outboard front seat passenger is unbelted,
the Seat Belt Reminder Light will turn on and remain
on until both outboard front seat belts are buckled.
The BeltAlert warning sequence begins after the vehicle
speed is over 5 mph (8 km/h) by blinking the Seat Belt
Reminder Light and sounding an intermittent chime. Once
the sequence starts, it will continue for the entire duration
or until the respective seat belts are buckled. After the
sequence completes, the Seat Belt Reminder Light remains
illuminated until the respective seat belts are buckled. The
driver should instruct all other occupants to buckle their
seat belts. If an outboard front seat belt is unbuckled while
traveling at speeds greater than 5 mph (8 km/h), BeltAlert
will provide both audio and visual notification.
The outboard front passenger seat BeltAlert is not active
when the outboard front passenger seat is unoccupied.
BeltAlert may be triggered when an animal or heavy
object is on the outboard front passenger seat or when the
seat is folded flat (if equipped). It is recommended that
pets be restrained in the rear seat (if equipped) in pet
harnesses or pet carriers that are secured by seat belts,
and cargo is properly stowed.
48 THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE
Page 112 of 367
•Conference Call— You can call another contact while
you are engaged in a phone conversation (with
Bluetooth® phones supporting this option).
•Call Waiting— While engaged in a phone conversa-
tion, you can receive notification of another incoming
phone call, answer the other incoming phone call, and
switch between two ongoing phone conversations.
(Call waiting is only supported by a subset of compat-
ible mobile phones).
•Refusing Incoming Call Or Ending A Call—You can
refuse an incoming call or end a current call by pushing
the Phone Hang-up button on the steering wheel.
After pairing and connecting your phone with the
BLUE&ME™ system, you can make phone calls by
speaking keywords or pushing buttons on the steering
wheel. When using the hands-free phone, the audio
output of a phone conversation is heard through your car
sound speakers.
Message Reader
The BLUE&ME™ message reader enables automatic
reading, through the car sound system, of the SMS texts
you receive on your Bluetooth® wireless technology
mobile phone that are received when the phone is paired
and connected to the BLUE&ME™ system. It does not
provide access to messages that were received before the
device was connected with the BLUE&ME™ system. The
message reader will also interpret many abbreviations
and emoticons contained in the SMS text.
NOTE:Not all mobile phones support the SMS text message
reader function or automatic phonebook transfer via
Bluetooth®. For further information on the list of compatible
mobile phones go to http://www.fiatusa.com, find the
SUPPORT section near the bottom of web page and click on
the Bluetooth® logo.

Message reader functions are managed by the control
buttons on the steering wheel or by the BLUE&ME™
voice commands.
The BLUE&ME™ message reader enables the following
operations:
•To display an indicator on the instrument panel that
indicates you have received a new SMS text. It will
display the sender’s number/name and will ask you
whether to read the text of the message to you.
•To manage the list of SMS texts received on your
BLUE&ME™ paired mobile phone.
•To read the messages received and stored. Messages
can be read multiple times.
•To call the SMS text sender using the buttons on the
steering wheel or voice commands.
•To delete individual messages or the entire inbox using
the buttons on the steering wheel or voice commands.
The BLUE&ME™ system can also recognize and read
abbreviations, if any (e.g. “ILUVU” will be read like “I
love you”) and interpret the most usual emoticons (e.g. :-)
will be read like “Smile”), that are currently used to write
SMS texts.
Media Player
With the BLUE&ME™ media player you can play the
digital audio files stored on a USB device by simply
connecting it to the USB port located in the center console
of the car. A second USB port, used for charging only, is
located in the glovebox.
In this way, while you are driving you can play your
favorite music collections.

dia Player Functions.

•To use the media player, you have to simply connect
(directly or by an extension lead) your USB device to the
center console USB port. After turning the ignition key
to ON, BLUE&ME™ will start building your media
library. At the end of this operation you can surf the
complete library and scroll its categories as required
using the buttons on the steering wheel or voice com-
mands. BLUE&ME™ will then play your selection via
the car sound system.
WARNING!
•Driving while distracted can result in loss of ve-
hicle control, accident and injury. It is strongly
recommended that you use extreme caution when
using any device or feature that may take your
focus off the road or your hands off the steering
wheel. Your primary responsibility is the safe op-
eration of your vehicle.

SIGNALMEANINGINDICATION
Obstacle DistanceAn obstacle is present

of view
Audible signal(dashboard loudspeaker)
•Sound pulses emitted at a rate that increases as the
distance decreases.
•Emits continuous tone at 12 in (30 cm).
•Adjustable volume level. (Refer to “Electronic Ve-
hicle Information Center (EVIC)” in “Understanding
Your Instrument Panel” for further information).

•Icon appears on display.
•Message is displayed on the Electronic Vehicle
Information Center (EVIC) (where provided).
While audible signals are emitted, the audio system is not
muted.
The audible signal is turned off immediately if the
distance increases. The tone cycle remains constant if the
distance measured by the inner sensors is constant. If this
condition occurs for the external sensors, the signal is
turned off after 3 seconds (stopping warnings during
maneuvers parallel to walls).

•Do not stick labels on the CD surface or write on the
recorded surface with pencils or pens.
•Do not use CDs that are very scratched, flawed,
distorted, etc. Using discs like these will result in
malfunctions or damage to the player.
•The use of original CD media is required for the best
quality audio production. Correct operation is not
guaranteed when CD-R/RW media are used that were
not correctly burned and/or with a maximum capacity
above 650 Mb.
•Do not use commercially available protective sheets
for CDs or discs, with stabilizers, etc. as they could get
stuck in the internal mechanism and damage the disc.
•If a copy-protected CD is used, it may take a few
seconds before the system starts to play it. The CD
player cannot be guaranteed to play all protected
discs. The fact that the CD is protected from being
copied is often shown in very small letters or is
difficult to read on the actual CD cover where it may
be, for example, “COPY CONTROL,” “COPY PRO-
TECTED,” “THIS CD CANNOT BE PLAYED ON A
PC/MAC.”
•The CD player is capable of reading most compression
systems currently in use, following the development of
these systems, the reading of all compression formats
is not guaranteed.
