OVERVIEW

Blue&Me™ Nav based on Windows Mobile™ is a personal telematic system that allows the use of communication, entertainment and navigation applications specifically designed for in-car use.

The Blue&Me™ Nav 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.

Blue&Me™ Nav makes a whole range of functions 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).

The Blue&Me™ Nav system, fully integral with voice commands, buttons on the steering wheel, on sound system front panel 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 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 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 securely using either voice commands or buttons on the steering wheel under whatever driving condition without having to take your eyes off the road or removing your hands from the steering wheel, as required by current law regulations.

Bluetooth®wireless technology enables

wireless connection between your mobile phone and the hands-free kit installed on your car.

To use the hands-free kit, you need a Blue-

tooth

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 this capability. You can also interact with your mobile phone manually and visually using the steering wheel controls and the instrument panel multifunction display.

For further details on the mobile phones supported by Blue&Me™ Nav, refer to section Blue&Me™ Nav SUPPORTED MOBILE PHONES.

To get started with Blue&Me™ Nav 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.

OVERVIEW

Note

During the mobile phone pairing procedure, Blue&Me™ Nav attempts to detect a phone equipped with Bluetooth®wireless technology within range and then establishes the connection using a Personal Identification 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™ Navyou 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 recognizes a keyword, it will respond with the appropriate action. Voice recognition is an easy and convenient way to use Blue&Me™ Nav.

All the system functions are available within the Blue&Me™ Nav Main Menu. When the car 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 interact with Blue&Me™ Nav using buttons on the steering wheel or voice commands relevant only to phone functions (LAST CALLS and PHONEBOOK) and 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 handsfree kit phonebook).

❍

Digit-dialling by voice - you can dial a phone number by speaking the digits to be dialled.

❍

To call the SMS text sender - call directly the last SMS text sender or the sender of a message received and stored yet in the Blue&Me™ Nav inbox.

❍

Receiving phone calls - you can accept an incoming call simply by pressing a 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 conversation, 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 compatible mobile phones).

After you place your mobile phone in the car environment and create a pairing relationship with Blue&Me™ Nav, you can make phone calls by speaking keywords or pressing 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 (Function only available with compatible mobile phones)

The Blue&Me™ Nav message reader enables automatic reading, through the car sound system, of the SMS texts you receive on your Bluetooth®wireless technology mobile phone. The message reader 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™ Nav voice commands.

The Blue&Me™ Nav message reader enables the following operations:

❍

To display on the instrument panel multifunction display a visual notification signal indicating that you have received a new SMS text on your Bluetooth wireless technology mobile phone, with sender’s number/name; Blue&Me™ Nav will also propose you to read the message received

OVERVIEW

❍

To manage the list of SMS texts received on your Blue&Me™ Nav paired mobile phone

❍

To read again the messages received and stored

❍

To call the SMS text sender using the buttons on the steering wheel or voice commands

❍

To delete individual messages or the entire inbox using the buttons on the steering wheel or voice commands.

The Blue&Me™ Nav system can also recognize 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™ Nav media player you can play, via the car sound system, the digital audio files stored on a USB device by simply connecting it to the USB port located in the car.

In this way, while you are driving you can play your favourite personal music collections.

The media player enables the following operations:

❍

iPod™ player - see dedicated paragraph.

❍

Digital audio playback - you can play all your digital audio files (

.wma, .acc, .wav

playlist (

❍

Audio file selection by category you can play all audio files of a certain category, e.g.: album, artist or genre.

❍

Playback options - while playing tracks you can select the following options:

.m3u

) or play a customized

.wpl

format).

.mp3

Play, Stop, Next track, Previous track, Shuffle and Loop track

Note

The media player does not support audio files compressed with other formats and DRM (Digital Right Management) protected audio files or MP4. Non-supported audio files that may be present on the USB device will be ignored.

To use the media player, you have to simply connect (directly or by an extension lead) your USB device to the car USB port. Turning the ignition key to MAR, Blue&Me™ Nav will start building your media library. Once the operation is completed, you can browse the whole library and scroll through the categories by either using the steering wheel controls, voice controls or the radio controls. Blue&Me™ Nav will then play your selection via the car sound system.

OVERVIEW

THE NAVIGATION SYSTEM

The Blue&Me™ Nav navigation system allows you to reach a required location quickly and safely. You will be taken to your destination by means of voice messages and pictogram instructions shown on a the vehicle’s reconfigurable multifunction display.

The navigation system allows you to:

❍

Enter a new destination – you can enter the address of a desired destination, specifying the name of the destination street with the house number or simply the town/city centre.

❍

Navigate to a point of interest – you can call up as a final destination a point of interest selected from a category list (e.g. hotels, restaurants, airports, railway stations, authorised workshops, etc.).

❍

Trip information – Blue&Me™ Nav is able to provide estimated time of arrival and distance to a preset destination. It also allows you to display your car’s position (latitude, longitude and number of GPS satellites received).

❍

Recent destinations – you may choose one of the destinations recently preset, stored by the system in a special list.

❍

Navigation settings – you can set your preferences for the route type, e.g. motorways, toll-roads or ferries.

❍

Route simulation – Blue&Me™ Nav allows you to simulate the type of route to your set destination in advance.

OVERVIEW

ROAD SAFETY

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; for this reason certain functions shall only be used when driving condi-

tions are secure and, if required, only when the car is stopped.

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 conse-

quences. Keep User’s Guide in the car: when kept in the car, 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 instructions and safety information carefully.

IMPORTANT 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 car 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 remove your hands from the wheel.

Voice Command Control: functions within the system may be accomplished using only voice commands. Using voice commands while

driving 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 signals 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.

‘

❍

If possible, try to minimize background noise in the car.

❍

Ask the other passengers to keep silent while you are pronouncing voice commands to prevent misunderstanding since the system could recognize other words (in addition to or different from your voice command) if several people are speaking.

❍

If your car has a convertible top, close it before using voice recognition.

Notes

As concerns countries where the version in native language is not available, voice recognition of the different commands and phonebook contacts could be difficult. You are therefore recommended to adopt a pronunciation/accent meeting the language present on Blue&Me™ Nav.

teraction, proceed as follows: Press The system will respond with “Number,

please”. Pronounce the phone number as a se-

quence of single digits (e.g.: “0”, “1”, “2”, “3”, “4”, “5”, “6”, “7”, “8”, “9”, “+” (plus), “#” (pound) or “*” (star).

For example, 0113290103 has to be pronounced as: “zero, one, one, three, two, nine, zero, one, zero, three”.

To end the phone call, press

/MENU for longer than 1 second.

You can pronounce the sequence of phone number digits in “digit groups” which allows you to verify the recognized number in several small portions. Digit groups are created by the pauses you use while pronouncing the sequence of digits. If you pause after pronouncing several digits, a digit group is created. The system will repeat the recognized digits.

If the spoken digits are correct, you can continue pronouncing the phone number. If the spoken digits are incorrect, you can delete the digit group by pronouncing “Delete”. The system will delete the last group of numbers and display the partially-dialled phone number. Then, you can re-pronounce the digit group and also the remaining phone number digits.

To cancel the phone call, pronounce “Cancel”.

To cancel the phone call and start dialling again, pronounce “Start over”.

To ask the system to repeat the recognized phone number, pronounce “Repeat”. If no phone number was dialled, the system says “No number available”.

If the repeated phone number is correct, pronounce “Dial” to start the call.

Note

When dialling a phone number by voice commands, it is essential to minimize background noise in the car and to ask the other passengers to keep silent while you are speaking digits. Since the system is of the speaker independent type it can recognize also other voices; there is therefore the risk that some numbers are accidentally recognized, added to correct numbers or not recognized.

FUNCTION OF THE NAVIGATION SYSTEM

Blue&Me™ Nav leads you to your chosen destination quickly and safely by means of its navigation function by means of voice synthesis and pictograms that appear on a reconfigurable multifunction display on the control panel. The navigation system allows you to navigate towards a destination address, to call up programmed destinations or points of interest (e.g.: hotels, restaurants, chemists, airports, railway stations, authorised workshops etc.). The car’s position is determined by the GPS (Global Position System), by processing signals from GPS satellites and the car’s odometric signals. Blue&Me™ Nav uses digital mapping data preloaded onto your USB device to lead you to your desired destination by the best possible route from your current location.

The instructions provided by

Blue&Me™ Nav

do not

exonerate the driver from full responsibility for any manoeuvres carried out in traffic while driving the car and for respecting the highway code and other road traffic regulations. Responsibility for road safety always lies with the driver of the car under all circumstances.

Notes

❍

GPS reception is difficult under trees, among tall buildings, in covered carparks, in tunnels and in any place where the satellite aerial reception may be hindered.

❍

The Blue&Me™ Nav navigator takes a few minutes to determine the car’s new position if the car is moved with the system turned off (e.g. after transporting the car on a ferry).

❍

If the vehicle battery is disconnected, the GPS takes about 15 minutes to activate.

❍

The system is equipped with a self-calibration function that needs to operate for about 100 km when the system is first turned on or if the tyres are changed. During this stage, the position could be calculated with less accuracy.

❍

Under continuous conditions of low wheel grip (e.g. when skidding on ice), the system may temporarily record an inaccurate position.

Navigation display

On the control panel reconfigurable multifunction display (see fig. 3), the manoeuvres to be carried out (right turn, left turn, drive round round-about, go straight on or change direction) are displayed by means of pictograms.

The display also indicates the name of the current street and the distance to the next turn-off. The name shown near the turn-off is that of the street where the manoeuvre is to be carried out.

FUNCTION OF THE NAVIGATION SYSTEM

fig. 3

A – Navigation pictogram B – Distance to the next turn-off C – Street name

Voice messages

The voice messages issued by the system recommend all manoeuvres to be carried in plenty of time: in particular, advance warning of the manoeuvre to be carried out is given, followed by detailed instructions on when to carry out the manoeuvre.

To repeat the last voice message, press the

key and say “Next maneuver”.

PAIRING A MOBILE PHONE

Before you can use your mobile phone with the hands-free phone function on your car, you must create a pairing relationship between the mobile phone and the hands-free phone system.

During the pairing procedure, the hands-free phone system attempts to detect a phone equipped with Bluetooth nology within range, and then establishes the connection using a Personal Identification Number (PIN). After a pairing relationship is established, you can use the handsfree phone system to make and receive phone calls, and do other operations via your wirelessly-connected mobile phone.

IMPORTANT The mobile phone pairing PIN number is a special PIN generated randomly at each new pairing and used just for this operation. It is not your SIM PIN and therefore it is not required to store or to keep it in mind; loosing it will not impair the handsfree phone system operation.

The pairing procedure will only need to be performed once for your mobile phone. After this procedure Blue&Me™ Nav will automatically connect to your phone each time you get into the car and turn the ignition key to MAR.

Practical hints

To improve both the voice recognition of your phonebook entries and Blue&Me™ Nav pronunciation accuracy when repeating the entries, please try to enter contact entries and memorize them using the following criteria:

❍

Avoid abbreviations.

❍

Write foreign names according to the way in which they are pronounced according to the rules of the Blue&Me™ Nav language set on your car. For example, enter “Tanja” as “Tanya”, to improve recognition accuracy and also to obtain the correct pronunciation by the system.

/MENU when you have fin-

❍

When adding or editing contact entries, insert the appropriate accent marks when the name requires these marks to be properly pronounced and recognized by the system. For example enter “Nicolo Rebora” as “Nicolò Rébora” to obtain the correct pronunciation.

❍

When adding or editing contact entries, bear in mind that certain isolated block letter may be read as Roman numerals (e.g.: V may be read as fifth).

❍

When calling contacts by voice, do not include the middle names or middle initials of your contacts.

Notes

❍

You are only required to pair your mobile phone a single time.

❍

You can pair up to five mobile phones, to be used one at a time.

❍

On your paired mobile phone, the Bluetooth®setting must be turned on in or-

der to connect your mobile phone with

Blue&Me™ Nav.

707070

❍

Before transferring your mobile phone contacts to the hands-free system, make sure that each contact first and last name is unique and distinctly recognizable so that the voice recognition system will function properly.

❍

The system will download only valid contact entries. A valid contact entry must include both a name and at least one phone number. (not all mobile phones support automatic downloading of the directory).

❍

If you would like to re-pair your mobile phone, delete the old pairing relationship first. During this operation all user data will be deleted. To delete the old pairing relationship, use the menu option USER DATA, DELETE USERS. On your mobile phone, delete “Blue&Me” from the list of

Bluetooth®devices following the specif-

ic instructions for your mobile phone (refer to your mobile phone owner’s manual).

❍

If you download a phonebook with a contacts list including more than 1000 contacts, the system may operate slower than expected and voice recognition of the names in your phonebook may degrade.

SETTINGS FUNCTIONS

❍

If the pairing relationship is accidentally deleted, the pairing procedure shall be repeated.
