Hands-free kit with Bluetooth®wireless technology,

message reader and media player

OVERVIEW

Windows Mobile™-based Fiat Blue&Me™
is a personal telematic system enabling to
use communication and entertainment ap­plications expressly designed for use in the
car.

The Blue&Me™ system installed on your
car is equipped with hands-free kit, mes­sage reader and media player, and it is pre­set for future installation of additional ser­vices.

The Blue&Me™ system, fully integral
with voice commands, buttons on the
steering wheel and multifunction display
messages, gives you the possibility of in­teracting with your Bluetooth
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.

®

wireless

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

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 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™, refer to sec­tion 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.

3

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
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

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

ROAD SAFETY

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; for this reason certain functions shall only be used when

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

WARNING

Read and Follow Instructions: before using your system, read and follow all instructions and safety information provided in this

sequences.
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.

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 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 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 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.

CONTROLS STEERING WHEEL

Buttons on the steering wheel (see fig. 1)
are used to perform functions on the
hands-free kit, activating voice recognition,
using the media player functions or select­ing a Blue&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).

 For further information read chapter

DISPLAY AND BUTTONS ON THE
STEERING WHEEL.

Note

Instructions concerning manual controls
are identified in the text by symbol ?.

VOICE COMMANDS

Voice commands can be pronounced by
the driver, which 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 phone system recognizes
and responds to a preset list of voice com­mands. The list of available voice com­mands depends on the keyword level that
you are currently on. The current list is al­ways available by pressing
nouncing “Help” or, pronouncing “Help”
after whichever question of the system.
Blue&Me™ also recognizes personalized
versions of voice commands like the name
of a contact in your phonebook.

There is no voice training required for us­ing voice commands with this system.

To issue a voice command to the system,
press
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 acknowledge
your command by speaking a response or
acting on your command.

Voice commands are organized according
to three increasing levels: 1
el and 3rdlevel.

When a valid* 1
nounced, the system will activate 2ndlev­el keywords; when a valid 2ndlevel key­word is pronounced, the system will ac­tivate 3rdlevel keywords.

If the user pronounces a valid 1stlevel key­word, then the submenu relevant to that
command will remain active until a key­word leading to another level is given or
the interaction is interrupted; the same
rule applies for the other lower levels (2
and 3rdlevel).

After you press ‘, if you do not is­sue a voice command within a few sec­onds, the system will prompt you to
pronounce a voice command. If you do
not respond, then voice recognition
shuts off. It is the same case with not
responding to a question during a voice
interaction. You will hear a tone indi­cating when voice recognition is deac­tivated.

When the system fails to recognize
your voice command, it will give you an­other opportunity to re-pronounce the
voice command. If you are unsure of
whether the voice command is appro­priate for the given context, pronounce
“Help”.

Using voice recognition

The voice recognition system may occa­sionally misrecognize a voice command.
To ensure that your voice commands are
always recognized by the system, use the
following guidelines:

❒

After pressing ‘, pronounce the voice
command after the system plays a tone
indicating that voice recognition is ac­tive.

❒

After the system asks a question, wait
for one second before pronouncing the
response to ensure that voice recog­nition is active.

❒

If you want to pronounce a command
without waiting that the system has fin­ished its announcement or question,
you can press again shortly ‘to in­terrupt what the system is saying and
pronounce your command.

❒

Speak at a normal volume.

❒

Pronounce words clearly, in your nat­ural voice at a moderate pace, without
stops.

❒

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™.

To change the voice recognition language
contact Fiat Dealership or consult the ded­icated site at www.fiat.com.

MANAGEMENT

Calling a contact in your
phonebook

It is a requirement that you create a pair­ing relationship and download your mo­bile phone phonebook to the hands-free
phone system to use this dialing feature.

To call a contact in your phonebook
using manual interaction, proceed as

?

follows:

Press ß/MAIN to open the Main
Menu.

Select PHONEBOOK and then
press SRC/OK or ß/MAIN.

Press NorOto select the alpha­betical grouping which your con­tact’s name belongs to, press
SRC/OK or ß/MAIN and then se­lect the required contact.

If the contact has just one phone
number, press SRC/OK or

/MAIN to start the call.

ß

If the contact has multiple phone
numbers, press SRC/OK or

/MAIN to view the different

ß

phone numbers and then select the
required one by NorOand press
SRC/OK or ß/MAIN to start the
call.

To end the phone call, press

/MAIN for longer than 1 second.

Assume you would like to call the
contact “John” in your mobile
phone phonebook.

Press

John” or “Call John (on/at) Mo­bile“ (in the previous statement, the

keyword “Mobile” represents the
type of phone number you would
like to call. The phone number type
can either be “(at) Home”, “(at)
Work”, or “(on/at) Other”).

If the name is recognized, the sys­tem will display the recognized con­tact’s information (John, in the ex­ample) on the display screen.

If John has just one phone number,
the system will ask if you would like
to call John. To start the call say
“Yes”, otherwise say “No”.

If John has several phone numbers,
the system will ask which phone
number you would like to call (e.g.:
“Call John (at) Work or (at)
Home?”). Answer with the type of
required phone number (e.g.: “(at)
Home”).

and pronounce “Call

‘

If John has several phone numbers
but the “location” (i.e.: the type of
phone number like work, home,
etc.) is missing, the system will dis­play the selected contact and a list
of related phone numbers.

To call the displayed phone number,
pronounce “Call”.

If the contact is correct but the
phone number is wrong, you can
surf the phone number list manual­ly by pressing NorO. When you
find the required number, press

/MAIN or SRC/OK to start the

ß

call.

To end the phone call, press

/MAIN for longer than 1 second.

ß

Practical hint

When you call a contact with multiple
phone numbers, use the “at location” por­tion of the voice command (e.g.: “(at)

Home”, “(at) Work”, “(on/at) Mo­bile”). This will shorten the amount of

steps required to make the phone call.

Dialling a phone number using
voice commands

To dial a phone number using voice
interaction, proceed as follows:

}

Press

The system will respond with
“Number, please”.

Pronounce the phone number as a
sequence 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”.

The system will repeat the complete
phone number and display it.

If the number is complete, pro­nounce “Dial”. If you have not fin­ished speaking the phone number,
then pronounce the remaining dig­its and then pronounce “Dial”.

and pronounce “Dial”.

‘

20

The system will start the call to the
displayed phone number.

To end the phone call, press

/MAIN for longer than 1 second.

ß

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 partially­dialled 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 num-
ber 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.

number using your mobile phone

?

keypad and then continue your con­versation using the hands-free

TROUBLESHOOTING.

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 hands­free phone system attempts to detect a
phone equipped with Bluetooth

®

wire­less technology within range, and then es­tablishes the connection using a Personal
Identification Number (PIN). After a pair­ing relationship is established, you can use
the hands-free 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 hands-free phone system
operation.

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

34

You can create a pairing relationship us­ing the PAIRING option in the SET-
TINGS menu.

To create a pairing relationship us­ing manual interaction, proceed as

?

follows:

Press
Menu, then select SETTINGS by
pressing SRC/OK or ß/MAIN.

Select PAIRING and then press
SRC/OK or ß/MAIN. The system
will start the pairing procedure.

The system shows the mobile
phone pairing PIN on the instru­ment panel display and repeats it.
Please note that this is a PIN used
just for this operation, it is not your
SIM PIN.

mobile phone owner’s manual about

“Blue&Me” (item that identifies
Blue&Me™ on your car).

When prompted by the mobile
phone, enter the PIN number
shown on the instrument panel dis­play. If pairing is successful, the sys­tem will say “Connecting” and
then the display will show the paired
mobile phone ID.

It is of vital importance to wait un­til this confirmation message is dis­played since pressing

To start copying the phonebook,
pronounce “Yes”; otherwise say
“No”.

For certain mobile phones the
phonebook is not copied automat­ically, in this case you must send the
contacts in your mobile phone
phonebook to the hands-free phone
system using your mobile phone
keypad. If the hands-free phone sys­tem asks you to do this, then per­form this procedure following the

Practical hints

To improve both the voice recognition of
your phonebook entries and Blue&Me™
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™ 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.

❒

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.

36

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 order to connect your mobile phone
with Blue&Me™.

❒

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.

❒

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 specific 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.

❒

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

MANAGING USER DATA

You can make adjustments to the user da­ta used by the hands-free phone system.
Specifically, you can reset all user data for
paired phones, delete the phonebook or
reset both user data and phonebook
downloaded. In this way the system is
brought back to initial conditions. You can
also download either the phonebook or
single contacts from your mobile phone
to the system, if you chose not to down­load the phonebook during the phone
pairing procedure. You can make adjust­ments to the user data used by the system
using the option USER DATA.
