BLUE&ME™ HANDS-FREE COMMUNICATION
Blue&Me™ Hands-Free Communication
Overview — If Equipped
Windows Mobile™-based FIAT BLUE&ME™ is a per-
sonal telematic system enabling you to use communica-
tion and entertainment applications expressly designed
for use in the car.
The BLUE&ME™ system installed on your car is
equipped with a hands-free kit, message reader and
media player, and it is preset for future installation of
additional services.
The BLUE&ME™ system, fully integrated with voice
commands, buttons on the steering wheel and multifunc-
tion display messages, gives you the possibility of inter-
acting with your Bluetooth® wireless technology mobile
phone (even if you keep it in your pocket or bag) withoutSun Visor (Passenger Side Shown)

having to take your eyes off the road or remove your
hands from the steering wheel. To use voice commands
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 favorite music
stored on USB device and select tracks and playback
modes with both voice commands or buttons on the
steering wheel.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC rules
subject to the following two conditions:
•This device may not cause harmful interference.
•This device must accept all interference received, includ-
ing interference that may cause undesired operation.
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
securely by using either voice commands or buttons on
the steering wheel. This can be done under any driving
condition without ever having to take your eyes off the
road or remove your hands from the steering wheel, as
required by current laws.
Bluetooth® wireless technology enables wireless connec-
tion between your mobile phone and the hands-free kit
installed on your car.
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 feature Voice Recognition. You can also interact
with your mobile phone manually and visually using the

steering wheel controls and the instrument panel multi-
function display. Please refer to the Fiat Blue & Me Radio
Supplement for further information.
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 procedure,
BLUE&ME™ attempts to detect a phone equipped
with Bluetooth® wireless technology within range and
then establishes the connection using a Personal Iden-
tification Number (PIN).
•Once your phone is paired, you have the option to
transfer your mobile phone contacts to the hands-free
kit, to make a phone call either by using the contacts
list or directly pronouncing the phone number, to
answer a call and also to answer another incoming
phone call.

•To interact with BLUE&ME™ you can use either the
buttons on the steering wheel or voice commands.
With voice recognition, you can perform system func-
tions by speaking voice commands, also identified as
“keywords”. When the system recognizes 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 within the
BLUE&ME™ Main Menu. When the car is not moving,
you can scroll through the complete menu by using either
the buttons on the steering wheel or the voice commands.
When you are traveling, you can interact with
BLUE&ME™ by using the buttons on the steering wheel
or voice commands relevant only to phone functions
(LAST CALLS and PHONEBOOK) and the media player.
To activate settings when travelling you can only use
voice commands.
The hands-free kit enables the following operations:
•Contact Calling By Voice— You can call a contact in
your mobile phone phonebook using your voice. You
can also call a contact in your phonebook by scanning
through the entries on the multifunction display. (To
use this option you have to transfer your mobile phone
contacts to the hands-free kit phonebook).
•Digit Dialing By Voice— You can dial a phone
number by pushing the VR button on the steering
wheel and speaking the digits to be dialed.
•To Call The SMS Text Sender— Call directly the last
SMS text sender or the sender of a message received
and stored in the BLUE&ME™ inbox.
•To Answer A Call— You can answer an incoming call
by pushing the MAIN/Phone button on the steering
wheel.

•Conference Call— You can call another contact while
you are engaged in a phone conversation (with
Bluetooth® phones supporting this option).
•Call Waiting— While engaged in a phone conversa-
tion, you can receive notification of another incoming
phone call, answer the other incoming phone call, and
switch between two ongoing phone conversations.
(Call waiting is only supported by a subset of compat-
ible mobile phones).
•Refusing Incoming Call Or Ending A Call—You can
refuse an incoming call or end a current call by pushing
the Phone Hang-up button on the steering wheel.
After pairing and connecting your phone with the
BLUE&ME™ system, you can make phone calls by
speaking keywords or pushing buttons on the steering
wheel. When using the hands-free phone, the audio
output of a phone conversation is heard through your car
sound speakers.
Message Reader
The BLUE&ME™ message reader enables automatic
reading, through the car sound system, of the SMS texts
you receive on your Bluetooth® wireless technology
mobile phone that are received when the phone is paired
and connected to the BLUE&ME™ system. It does not
provide access to messages that were received before the
device was connected with the BLUE&ME™ system. The
message reader will also interpret many abbreviations
and emoticons contained in the SMS text.
NOTE:Not all mobile phones support the SMS text message
reader function or automatic phonebook transfer via
Bluetooth®. For further information on the list of compatible
mobile phones go to http://www.fiatusa.com, find the
SUPPORT section near the bottom of web page and click on
the Bluetooth® logo.
