Synopsis
B757 First Officer reported an Engine Bleed EICAS message during takeoff roll as PF. Captain assumed control and rejected the takeoff.
Narrative
After an early morning maintenance delay and de-icing; we finally reached runway XL for departure to ZZZ. I was PF and the Captain was PM. Due to cold weather operations; we were required to perform an engine run up before takeoff. As we got cleared to line up and wait; the Captain performed this run-up before handing me the controls. Just as he finished the run-up; ATC cleared us for takeoff and the Captain handed me the aircraft. During the initial phase of the takeoff roll; I heard the Captain say something but I could not quite hear it and I continued the takeoff and kept my focus outside. He then said something again that I could not hear well but it did not seem to be the 100 knot call. At that time; I felt something wasn't quite right and took a very quick glance at the EICAS. I noticed a Bleed caution message and then heard the Captain say out loud reject; my aircraft". He took control and retarded the throttles. I then kept my focus outside to make sure we maintained center line because the ATIS reported a braking action of 3. I also notified ATC that we were rejecting on the runway and then made a PA saying "remain seated; remain seated". I failed to look at the airspeed or back up the Captain on the 80 knot call before making the PA. We exited the runway; assured ATC that no assistance was needed; and brought the airplane to a complete stop on the taxiway to run the rejected takeoff checklist. The brake temperature never exceeded a 3 and quickly cooled down. The bleed message also went away but after discussing the event with maintenance; we returned to the gate to avoid another reject on a slippery runway. We ended up swapping aircraft and continued uneventfully."
