Notes
❒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”. 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 ded-
icated site at www.fiat.com.

}
Or, using voice interaction:
Assume you would like to call the
contact “John” in your mobile
phone phonebook.
Press
‘and pronounce “Call
John” or “Call John (on/at) Mo-
bile“ (in the previous statement, the
keyword “Mobile” represents the
type of phone number you would
like to call. The phone number type
can either be “(at) Home”, “(at)
Work”, or “(on/at) Other”).
If the name is recognized, the sys-
tem will display the recognized con-
tact’s information (John, in the ex-
ample) on the display screen.
If John has just one phone number,
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 system will dis-
play the selected contact and a list
of related phone numbers.
To call the displayed phone number,
pronounce “Call”.
If the contact is correct but the
phone number is wrong, you can
surf the phone number list manual-
ly by pressing
NorO. When you
find the required number, press
ß/MAINor SRC/OKto start the
call.
To end the phone call, press

Practical hint
When you call a contact with multiple
phone numbers, use the “at location” por-
tion of the voice command (e.g.: “(at)
Home”, “(at) Work”, “(on/at) Mo-
bile”). This will shorten the amount of
steps required to make the phone call. Dialling a phone number using
voice commands
}
To dial a phone number using voice
interaction, proceed as follows:
Press
‘and pronounce “Dial”.
The system will respond with
“Number, please”.
Pronounce the phone number as a
sequence of single digits (e.g.: “0”,
“1”, “2”, “3”, “4”, “5”, “6”, “7”, “8”,
“9”, “+” (plus), “#” (pound) or “*”
(star).
For example, 0113290103 has to be
pronounced as: “zero, one, one,
three, two, nine, zero, one, zero,
three”.
The system will repeat the complete
phone number and display it.
If the number is complete, pro-
nounce “Dial”. If you have not fin-
ished speaking the phone number,
then pronounce the remaining dig-
its and then pronounce “Dial”.

21
The system will start the call to the
displayed phone number.
To end the phone call, press
ß/MAINfor longer than 1 second.
You can pronounce the sequence of
phone number digits in “digit
groups” which allows you to verify
the recognized number in several
small portions. Digit groups are cre-
ated by the pauses you use while
pronouncing the sequence of digits.
If you pause after pronouncing sev-
eral digits, a digit group is created.
The system will repeat the recog-
nized digits.
If the spoken digits are correct, you
can continue pronouncing the phone
number. If the spoken digits are in-
correct, you can delete the digit
group by pronouncing “Delete”.
The system will delete the last group
of numbers and display the partially-
dialled phone number. Then, you can
re-pronounce the digit group and al-
so the remaining phone number dig-
its.
To cancel the phone call, pronounce
“Cancel”.To cancel the phone call and start
dialling again, pronounce “Start
over”.
To ask the system to repeat the
recognized phone number, pro-
nounce “Repeat”. If no phone
number was dialled, the system says
“No number available”.
If the repeated phone number is
correct, pronounce “Dial” to start
the call.
Note
When dialling a phone number by voice
commands, it is essential to minimize
background noise in the car and to ask the
other passengers to keep silent while you
are speaking digits. Since the system is of
the speaker independent type it can rec-
ognize also other voices; there is there-
fore the risk that some numbers are ac-
cidentally recognized, added to correct
numbers or not recognized.Dialling a phone number using
the mobile phone keypad?
Alternatively, you can dial a phone
number using your mobile phone
keypad and then continue your con-
versation using the hands-free
