HOW TO USE BLUE&ME™ HANDS-FREE
COMMUNICATION
Steering Wheel Controls
Buttons on the steering wheel are used to perform
functions on the hands-free communication package,
activating voice recognition, using the media player
functions, or selecting aBLUE&ME™menu option.
Certain buttons have multiple functions which depend
on the current state of the system.
The function chosen in response to a key press is in some
cases controlled by the duration of the key press (short or
long).
NOTE:
•For further information refer to DISPLAY AND BUT-
TONS ON THE STEERING WHEEL.
•Instructions concerning manual controls are identified
in the text by the appropriate symbol.
Voice Commands
Voice commands can be said by the driver, who 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 purpose.
Voice commands, which are words recognized by the
system, are identified as “keywords”.
The hands-free communication system recognizes and
responds to a preset list of voice commands. The list of
available voice commands depends on the keyword
menu level that you are currently on. The current list is
always available by pressing the
steering wheel
button and saying“Help”or, saying“Help”when
BLUE&ME™is waiting for a voice command.
BLUE&ME™also recognizes personalized versions of
voice commands, like the name of a contact in your
phonebook.
24 BLUE&ME™ User’s Manual

There is no voice training required for using voice
commands with this system.
To issue a voice command to the system, press the
steering wheel button and wait for the radio to mute,
then listen for “Say a command” and then a tone indi-
cating that voice recognition is active. Then, speak the
command in your natural voice at a moderate pace.
When the system recognizes the command, it will ac-
knowledge your command by speaking a response or
acting on your command.
Voice commands are organized according to three in-
creasing levels: 1st level, 2nd level and 3rd level.
When a valid* 1st level keyword is said, the system will
activate 2nd level keywords; when a valid 2nd level
keyword is said, the system will activate 3rd level
keywords.If the user says a valid 1st level keyword, then the
submenu relevant to that command will remain active
until a keyword leading to another level is given, the
interaction is interrupted or the system times out because
no command has been given; the same rule applies for
the other lower levels (2nd and 3rd level).
NOTE:For the list of available keywords, refer to
VOICE COMMANDS (KEYWORDS) - SUMMARY.
* Valid means that the keyword said is included in the
BLUE&ME™“dictionary” and can therefore be recog-
nized by the system for the concerned level.
To repeat the last system voice announcement, press the
steering wheel button and say“Repeat”or hold
the
steering wheel down for longer than 1 second.
The system can issue voice announcements. A voice
announcement is a spoken message initiated by the
system. To cancel a voice announcement, press the
