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.

•Say 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
speaking voice commands to prevent misunderstand-
ing 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.
NOTE:
•In countries where theBLUE&ME™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 available
onBLUE&ME™.
•The display language can be changed from the instru-
ment cluster menu, but to change the voice recognition
(VR) language and announcements, contact your FIAT
Dealership or consult the dedicated site at www.fia-
tusa.com website.

the digits of the phone number or calling the last message
sender.

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 Smith, in this
example) on the display screen.
If John Smith has just one phone number, the system will
ask if you would like to call John Smith. To start the call
say“Yes”, otherwise say“No”.
If John Smith has several phone numbers, the system will
ask which phone number you would like to call (e.g.,
“Call John Smith(at) Work or (at) Home?”). Answer with
the type of required phone number (e.g.,“(at) Home”).
If John Smith has several phone numbers but the “loca-
tion” (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, say“Call”.
If the contact is correct but the phone number is wrong,
you can scroll through the phone number list manually

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 number of steps required to make the phone
call.

Dialing a phone number using voice commands
To dial a phone number using voice interaction, proceed
as follows:
Press the
steering wheel button and say“Dial”.
The system will respond with“Number, please”.
Say 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, 248 555 1212 has to be said as: “two, four,
eight, five, five, five, one, two, one, two”.
The system will repeat the complete phone number and
display it.
If the number is complete, say“Dial”or press the

press the
/MAINbutton on the steering wheel to start
the call.
The system will start the call to the displayed phone
number.
To end the phone call, press thePHONE HANG UP
button on the steering wheel.
You can say the sequence of phone number digits in
“digit groups” which allows you to verify the recognized
number in several small portions. Digit groups are cre-
ated by the pauses you use while pronouncing the
sequence of digits. If you pause after pronouncing sev-
eral digits, a digit group is created. The system will
repeat the recognized digits.
If the spoken digits are correct, you can continue pro-
nouncing the phone number. If the spoken digits are
incorrect, you can delete the digit group by saying

“Delete”. The system will delete the last group of num-
bers and display the partially dialed phone number.

remaining phone number digits.
To cancel the phone call, say“Cancel”.
To cancel the phone call and start dialing again, say
“Start over”.

ber, say“Repeat”. If no phone number was dialed, the
system says“No number available”.

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

numbers will be accidentally recognized, added to cor-
rect numbers or not recognized.
