The Blue&Me™system, fully integral
with voice commands, buttons on the
steering wheel, on sound system and
multifunction display messages, gives you
the possibility of interacting with your
Bluetooth
®wireless technology mobile
phone (even if you keep it in your pocket
or bag) without having to take your eyes
off the road or removing your hands from
the steering wheel. To use voice com-
mands you are not required to train the
voice recognition system to recognize
your voice. This implies that the system
is nearly equally performing with different
persons, i.e.: the voice recognition system
is of the “speaker independent” type.
With this system you can also play your
favourite music stored on USB device and
select tracks and playback modes with
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 vehicle.
Hands-free kit with Bluetooth®wireless technology,
message reader and Media Player
Windows Mobile™-based Fiat Blue&Me™
is a personal telematic system enabling to
use communication and entertainment ap-
plications expressly designed for use in the
vehicle.
The Blue&Me™system installed on your
vehicle is equipped with hands-free kit,
message reader and Media Player, and it is
preset for future installation of additional
services.
Note
Not all mobiles support the voice reading
of SMS or the automatic transfer of the di-
rectory through Bluetooth
®. For further
information, surf the web site www.fiat.com
to find out the list of compatible mobiles.
OVERVIEW

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
display.
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.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
vehicle 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 inter-
act with Blue&Me
™using buttons on
the steering wheel or voice commands
relevant only to phone functions (LAST
CALLSand PHONEBOOK) and Me-
dia Player. To activate settings when trav-
elling you can only use voice commands.

swer the other incoming phone call, and

ed by a subset of compatible mobile
phones).

vehicle environment and create a pairing
relationship with Blue&Me™, you can

dio output of a phone conversation is heard

(with compatible mobile
phones only)
The Blue&Me™message reader enables
automatic reading, through the vehicle
sound system, of the SMS texts you re-
ceive on your Bluetooth
®wireless tech-
nology mobile phone. The message read-
er will also interpret any abbreviation and
emoticon contained in the SMS text.
Message reader functions are managed by
the control buttons on the steering wheel
or by the Blue&Me™voice commands.
The Blue&Me™message reader enables
the following operations:
❒ To display on the instrument panel

cation signal indicating that you have
received a new SMS text on your
Bluetooth
®wireless technology

and stored

The Blue&Me™system can also recog-
nize and read abbreviations, if any (e.g.
“ILUVU” will be read like “I love you”) and
interpret the most usual emoticons (e.g.
:-) will be read like “Smile”), adopted
nowadays to write SMS texts.MEDIA PLAYER
With the Blue&Me™Media Player you
can play, via the vehicle sound system, the
digital audio files stored on a USB device by
simply connecting it to the USB port lo-
cated in the vehicle.

tions.

category, e.g.: album, artist or genre.

simply connect (directly or by an exten-
sion lead) your USB device to the vehicle

ROAD SAFETY
Read and Follow Instructions:before using your system, read and follow all instructions and safety information provided in this
end user manual (“User’s Guide”). Not following precautions found in this User’s Guide can lead to an accident or other serious con-
sequences.
Keep User’s Guide in the vehicle: when kept in the vehicle, the User’s Guide will be a ready reference for you and other users unfamiliar
with the system. Please make certain that before using the system for the first time, all persons have access to the User’s Guide and read its in-
structions and safety information carefully.
WARNING: Operating certain parts of this system while driving can distract your attention away from the road, and possibly
cause an accident or other serious consequences. Do not change system settings or enter data non-verbally (using your
hands) while driving. Stop the vehicle in a safe and legal manner before attempting these operations. This is important since
while setting up or changing some functions you might be required to distract your attention away from the road and re-
move your hands from the wheel.
GENERAL OPERATION
Voice Command Control: functions within the system may be accomplished using only voice commands. Using voice commands while dri-
ving allows you to operate the system without removing your hands from the wheel.
Prolonged Views of Screen: do not access any function requiring a prolonged view of the screen while you are driving. Pull over in a safe
and legal manner before attempting to access a function of the system requiring prolonged attention. Even occasional short scans to the screen
may be hazardous if your attention has been diverted away from your driving task at a critical time.
Volume Setting: do not raise the volume excessively. Keep the volume at a level where you can still hear outside traffic and emergency sig-
nals while driving. Driving while unable to hear these sounds could cause an accident.
Use of Speech Recognition Functions: speech recognition software is inherently a statistical process which is subject to errors. It is your
responsibility to monitor any speech recognition functions included in the system and address any errors.
Distraction Hazard: any features may require manual (non-verbal) setup. Attempting to perform such set-up or insert data while driving can
seriously distract your attention and could cause an accident or other serious consequences. Stop the vehicle in a safe and legal manner before
attempting these operations.
WARNING
Operating certain parts of this system while driving can distract your attention away from the road, and possi-
bly cause an accident or other serious consequences; for this reason certain functions shall only be used when
driving conditions are secure and, if required, only when the vehicle is stopped.
