• FIAT’s Windows Mobile™ based BLUE&ME™ Hands-Free Communication is a
personal telematics system that incorporates communication and entertainment
applications that are expressly designed for use in your car.
• The BLUE&ME™ Hands-Free Communication package installed in your car is
equipped with integral hands-free kit, message reader, and media player.
BLUE&ME™ is designed to support the future installation of additional services.
• The BLUE&ME™ Hands-Free Communication package features integrated voice
recognition, steering wheel controls and a multifunction electronic display that
allows you to use your Bluetooth® wireless technology enabled mobile phone
without having to take your eyes off the road. You can even keep your phone in a

well for different users.

Driving while distracted can result in loss of vehicle control, accident and injury. It
is strongly recommended that you use extreme caution when using any device or
feature that may take your focus off the road or your hands off the steering wheel.
Your primary responsibility is the safe operation of your vehicle.
