BLUE&ME
™
in conjunction with Instant Nav
Blue&MeTMbased on Windows Mo-
bile™, is a personal telematic system that
allows for the use of applications for com-
munication and entertainment, specially
designed for use in vehicles. The system
fitted on your vehicle has the following
functions: hands free, SMS text reader (not
all mobile phones support this function),
multimedia player and navigator; it is also
prepared for additional services that will
become available in the course of time.
The system makes a whole range of func-
tions available, however it is useful to
know that:
– not all mobile phones support them
fully, such as, for example listening to an
incoming SMS message or automatic
downloading of the directory.
– certain improvements are required for
using an iPod (see dedicated paragraph).Thanks to its complete integration with
the voice commands, the controls on the
steering wheel, Instant Nav controls and
the information in the on-board multi-
function display, the system allows cus-
tomers who have a mobile phone with
Bluetooth
®, to use it even if it is in their
jacket pocket or handbag without ever
having to take their hands off the steer-
ing wheel. In order to use the voice com-
mands the voice recognition system does
not require any preparation process. The
system is capable of recognizing the voice
commands given, irrespective of gender,
by the tone of voice and intonation of the
person giving the instructions. It is possi-
ble to listen to music stored on a USB de-
vice, selecting the tracks and play modes
using either the controls on the steering
wheel or voice commands.HANDS FREE
The basic feature of this function is hands
free telephone communication with voice
recognition and Bluetooth
®. technology.
This system allows you to make and re-
ceive phone calls through voice commands
or using the manual controls on the steer-
ing wheel in complete safety, freedom and
comfort whilst driving in accordance with
the highway code.
Bluetooth
®technology makes it pos-
sible to use your mobile phone through
the hands free system on the car without
the need for connections.
To use the hands free function you need
a mobile phone with Bluetooth
®. This
function also offers you the opportunity
of speaking on the phone whilst driving
even if your mobile phone does not pos-
sess this capability. You can interact man-
ually and visually with your mobile phone
using the manual controls on the steer-
ing wheel and in the on board multifunc-
tion display.
