both voice commands or buttons on the
steering wheel.
THE HANDS-FREE KIT
The basic characteristic of this hands-free
kit is voice recognition with Bluetooth
®
wireless technology. With this system you
can make and receive calls safely and se-
curely using either voice commands or
buttons on the steering wheel under what-
ever driving condition without having to
take your eyes off the road or removing
your hands from the steering wheel, as re-
quired by current law regulations.
Bluetooth
®wireless technology enables
wireless connection between your mobile
phone and the hands-free kit installed on
your car. To use the hands-free kit, you need a
Bluetooth
®wireless technology enabled
mobile phone. This hands-free kit gives
you the possibility of interacting vocally
with your mobile phone while driving,
even if your mobile device does not fea-
ture this capability. You can also interact
with your mobile phone manually and vi-
sually using the steering wheel controls
and the instrument panel multifunction dis-
play.
For further details on the mobile phones
supported by Blue&Me™, refer to sec-
tion Blue&Me™SUPPORTED MOBILE
PHONES.
To get started with Blue&Me™hands-
free kit with voice recognition, you have
to simply pair your Bluetooth
®wireless
technology enabled mobile phone with the
system.
Pairing is an operation that has to be made
only once.
Hands-free kit with Bluetooth®wireless technology
and media player
OVERVIEW
Windows Mobile™-based Fiat
Blue&Me™is a personal telematic sys-
tem enabling to use communication and
entertainment applications expressly de-
signed for use in the car.
The Blue&Me™system installed on your
car is equipped with hands-free kit and
media player, and it is preset for future in-
stallation of additional services.
The Blue&Me™system, fully integral
with voice commands, buttons on the
steering wheel and multifunction display
messages, gives you the possibility of in-
teracting with your Bluetooth
®wireless
technology mobile phone (even if you
keep it in your pocket or bag) without hav-
ing to take your eyes off the road or re-
moving your hands from the steering
wheel. To use voice commands you are
not required to train the voice recognition
system to recognize your voice. This im-
plies that the system is nearly equally per-
forming with different persons, i.e.: the
voice recognition system is of the “speak-
er independent” type.
4
Note
During the mobile phone pairing proce-
dure, Blue&Me™attempts to detect a
phone equipped with Bluetooth
®wire-
less technology within range and then es-
tablishes the connection using a Personal
Identification Number (PIN).
Once your phone is paired, you have the
option to transfer your mobile phone con-
tacts to the hands-free kit, to make a
phone call either by using the contacts list
or directly pronouncing the phone num-
ber, to answer a call and also to answer
another incoming phone call.
To interact with Blue&Me
™you can use
either buttons on the steering wheel and
voice commands. With voice recognition,
you can perform system function by
speaking voice commands, also identified
as “keywords”. When the system recog-
nizes a keyword, it will respond with the
appropriate action. Voice recognition is an
easy and convenient way to use
Blue&Me
™.All the system functions are available with-
in the Blue&Me
™Main Menu. When the
car is not moving, you can surf through the
menu using either buttons on the steering
wheel and voice commands. When you
are travelling, you can interact with
Blue&Me
™using buttons on the steer-
ing wheel or voice commands relevant on-
ly to phone functions (Last callsand
Phonebook) and media player. To acti-
vate settings when travelling you can on-
ly use voice commands.
The hands-free kit enables the following
operations:
❒Contact calling by voice- you can call
a contact in your mobile phone phone-
book using your voice. You can also call
a contact in your phonebook by scan-
ning through the entries on the multi-
function display.
(To use this option you have to transfer
your mobile phone contacts to the hands-
free kit phonebook).
❒Digit-dialling by voice- you can dial a
phone number by speaking the digits to
be dialled.
❒Receiving phone calls- you can ac-
cept an incoming call simply by pressing
a button on the steering wheel.
❒Conference Call- you can call anoth-
er contact while you are engaged in a
phone conversation (with Bluetooth
®
phones supporting this option)
❒
Call waiting- while engaged in a phone
conversation, you can receive notifica-
tion of another incoming phone call, an-
swer the other incoming phone call, and
switch between two ongoing phone con-
versations. (Call waiting is only support-
ed by a subset of compatible mobile
phones).
After you place your mobile phone in the
car environment and create a pairing rela-
tionship with Blue&Me™, you can make
phone calls by speaking keywords or press-
ing buttons on the steering wheel. When
using the hands-free phone, the audio out-
put of a phone conversation is heard
through your car sound speakers.

HANDS-FREE KIT
QUICK REFERENCE
GUIDE
To quickly get started with using the
Blue&Me™hands-free kit with voice
recognition and Bluetooth
®wireless
technology:
❒Prepare your mobile phone phonebook
❒Turn the ignition key to MAR
❒Try out the voice commands
❒Pair your mobile phone
❒Make a phone call.
Instructions for each of the above func-
tions are given in the following paragraphs.PREPARE YOUR MOBILE
PHONE PHONEBOOK
Before creating a pairing relationship be-
tween your mobile phone and Blue&Me™,
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
system, you can always use the voice com-
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:
❒Press the steering wheel button ‘.
❒After Blue&Me™plays a tone indi-
cating that voice recognition is active,
pronounce “Help”. Blue&Me™will
speak the list of voice commands avail-
able.
❒After the general help message is fin-
ished, pronounce “Settings” and then
“Help”. Blue&Me™will speak again
the list of voice commands available for
the SETTINGSmenu.
10
❒You can then pronounce one of the
available commands and proceed with
the dialogue as you like.
❒If you need further help, press ‘and
pronounce again “Help”.PAIR YOUR MOBILE PHONE
IMPORTANT Carry out this operation
only with the car stopped.
To pair your mobile phone, proceed as
follows:
❒Press ‘and pronounce “Settings”
then, at the end of the Blue&Me™
message say “Pairing”.
❒The system will show the phone pair-
ing PIN number on the multifunction
display. For the next two steps, consult
your mobile phone owner’s manual
about Bluetooth
®pairing.
❒On your mobile phone, query for de-
vices equipped with Bluetooth®wire-
less technology (the setting on your
mobile phone might be called Discover
or New Device). In this list you will find
“Blue&Me” or “My Car” (name iden-
tifying the Blue&Me
™system on your
car): select it.
❒When prompted by the mobile phone,
enter the PIN number shown on the in-
strument panel display using your mo-
bile phone keypad. If pairing is success-
ful, 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 con-
firmation message on the display. Pressing
ß/MAINor &/ESCbefore the message
is displayed may cancel the pairing process.
If the pairing process fails, an error mes-
sage will be displayed: in this event repeat
the pairing procedure.
❒At first pairing, Blue&Me™will say
“Welcome” immediately after connect-
ing. This message will no longer be heard
at next pairing procedures.
15
Using voice recognition
The voice recognition system may occa-
sionally misrecognize a voice command.
To ensure that your voice commands are
always recognized by the system, use the
following guidelines:
❒After pressing ‘, pronounce the voice
command after the system plays a tone
indicating that voice recognition is ac-
tive.
❒After the system asks a question, wait
for one second before pronouncing the
response to ensure that voice recog-
nition is active.
❒If you want to pronounce a command
without waiting that the system has fin-
ished its announcement or question,
you can press again shortly
‘to in-
terrupt what the system is saying and
pronounce your command.
❒Speak at a normal volume.
❒Pronounce words clearly, in your nat-
ural voice at a moderate pace, without
stops.
❒If possible, try to minimize background
noise in the car.
❒Ask the other passengers to keep silent
while you are pronouncing voice com-
mands to prevent misunderstanding
since the system could recognize oth-
er words (in addition to or different
from your voice command) if several
people are speaking.
❒If your car has a convertible top, close
it before using voice recognition.
Notes
As concerns countries where the version
in native language is not available, voice
recognition of the different commands and
phonebook contacts could be difficult.
You are therefore recommended to adopt
a pronunciation/accent meeting the lan-
guage present on Blue&Me
™.
To change the voice recognition language
contact Fiat Dealership or consult the
dedicated site at www.fiat.com.DISPLAY
