you should make sure that you have con-
tact entries in your mobile phone phone-
book so that you can use them with the
hands-free phone.
If your phonebook is empty, quickly
create several new entries for frequently
dialled phone numbers. For further details,
consult your mobile phone owner’s man-
ual.
To enter properly contacts in your mo-
bile phone phonebook, refer to section
SETTING FUNCTIONS - PAIRING
YOUR MOBILE PHONE.
IMPORTANT NOTES
❒The phonebook copied to Blue&Me™
can only be used when the corre-
sponding mobile phone is paired.
❒Entries stored in SIM card or mobile
phone memory can be transferred to
Blue&Me™with different proce-
dures, according to your mobile phone
model.TRY OUT THE VOICE
COMMANDS
At each stage of your dialogue with the

mand “Help”, to get detailed indications
about the voice commands available at the
current dialogue stage.
To try out the “Help” function, proceed
as follows:

❒After Blue&Me™plays a tone indi-
cating that voice recognition is active,
pronounce “Help”. Blue&Me™will

ished, pronounce “Settings” and then
“Help”. Blue&Me™will speak again
the list of voice commands available for

pronounce “Call John”.
❒If the name is recognized, the system
will display the recognized contact’s in-
formation on the display screen.
If there is just one phone number for John
in your phonebook, the system will ask if
you would like to call John. To start the
call say “Yes”, otherwise say “No”.
If John has several phone numbers, the
system will ask which phone number you
would like to call (e.g.: “Call John (at)
Work or (at) Home?”). Answer with
the type of required phone number (e.g.:
“(at) Home”). If John has several phone numbers but the
“location” (i.e.: the type of phone number
like work, home, etc.) is missing, the sys-
tem will display the selected contact and
a list of related phone numbers. The
hands-free phone system will ask if you
would like to call the phone number dis-
played. To respond with “yes”, pronounce
“Yes”, otherwise pronounce “No”. If this
is the correct contact but the wrong num-
ber, say “Forward” or “Backward” to
navigate to the phone number you’d like

?.VOICE COMMANDS
Voice commands can be pronounced by
the driver, which does not need to change
his/her normal driving position to be heard
by the system, since the microphone is
properly located and oriented to this pur-
pose.
Voice commands, which are words rec-
ognized by the system, are identified as
“keywords”.
The hands-free phone system recognizes
and responds to a preset list of voice com-
mands. The list of available voice com-
mands depends on the keyword level that
you are currently on. The current list is al-
ways available by pressing
‘and pro-
nouncing “Help” or, pronouncing “Help”
after whichever question of the system.
Blue&Me™also recognizes personalized
versions of voice commands like the name
of a contact in your phonebook.
There is no voice training required for us-
ing voice commands with this system.To issue a voice command to the system,
press
‘and wait for the tone indicating
that voice recognition is active. Then,
speak the command in your natural voice
at a moderate pace. When the system rec-
ognizes the command, it will acknowledge
your command by speaking a response or
acting on your command.
Voice commands are organized according
to three increasing levels: 1
stlevel, 2ndlev-
el and 3rdlevel.
When a valid* 1
stlevel keyword is pro-
nounced, the system will activate 2ndlev-
el keywords; when a valid 2ndlevel key-
word is pronounced, the system will ac-
tivate 3
rdlevel keywords.
* Validmeans that the keyword pronounced is included in the Blue&Me™“dictionary” and that can therefore be recognized by
the system for the concerned level.

14
If the user pronounces a valid 1stlevel key-
word, then the submenu relevant to that
command will remain active until a key-
word leading to another level is given or
the interaction is interrupted; the same
rule applies for the other lower levels (2
nd
and 3rdlevel).
For the list of available keywords, re-
fer to section VOICE COMMANDS
(KEYWORDS) - SUMMARY.
To repeat the last system voice an-
nouncement, press
‘for longer than 1
second or press shortly
‘and pro-
nounce “Repeat”.
The system can issue voice announce-
ments. A voice announcement is a spoken
message initiated by the system. To can-
cel a voice announcement, press
&/ESC,
or press
‘and pronounce “Cancel”.
A voice interaction is a two-way commu-
nication/spoken exchange between system
and user. To initiate a voice interaction,
press
‘and issue a command. To inter-
rupt an ongoing interaction and start a
new interaction, press
‘at any time dur-
ing the interaction and issue a voice com-
mand.
To stop an ongoing interaction press
&/ESC. You will hear a tone indicating
when voice recognition is deactivated.The hands-free kit help option can speak
the list of commands available to you at
any time, depending on the keyword lev-
el that you are currently on. To use the
help system, say “HelpListen to the list
of currently available commands and de-
cide on which command you’d like to is-
sue to the system.
Adjust the volume of phone calls to a lev-
el that is comfortable and safe while the
car is in motion. To adjust the default vol-
ume of Blue&Me™, see paragraph “EX-
TERNAL AUDIO VOL function” in the
sound system owner handbook. To tem-
porarily adjust the volume of the current
phone call, press +or –or adjust the po-
sition of the radio knob. After the phone
call is disconnected, the volume will revert
back to the original level.
You can press +or –also to adjust the
volume of the current Blue&Me™voice
announcement.
Please remember that to interrupt a voice
announcement, you can always press
‘at any time during a voice interaction and
give a new voice command.
Note
❒Instructions concerning voice com-
mands are identified in the text by sym-

❒After you press ‘, if you do not is-
sue a voice command within a few sec-
onds, the system will prompt you to
pronounce a voice command. If you do
not respond, then voice recognition
shuts off. It is the same case with not
responding to a question during a voice
interaction. You will hear a tone indi-
cating when voice recognition is deac-
tivated.
❒When the system fails to recognize
your voice command, it will give you an-
other opportunity to re-pronounce the
voice command. If you are unsure of
whether the voice command is appro-
priate for the given context, pronounce
“Help”.
