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) without
having to take your eyes off the road or remove your
hands from the steering wheel. To use voice commandsyou 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, in-
cluding interference that may cause undesired opera-
tion.

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.

•To delete individual messages or the entire inbox using
the buttons on the steering wheel or voice commands.
The BLUE&ME™ 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”), that are currently used to write
SMS texts.
Media Player
With the BLUE&ME™ media player you can play the
digital audio files stored on a USB device by simply
connecting it to the USB port located in the center console
of the car. A second USB port, used for charging only, is
located in the glovebox.
In this way, while you are driving you can play your
favorite music collections. •
iPod® Player — See dedicated paragraph under Me-
dia Player Functions.
The media player enables the following operations:
• Digital Audio Playback — You can play all your
digital audio files (.mp3, .wma, .wav, .aac) or play a
customized playlist (.m3u or .wpl format).
• 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: Play, Stop, Next track,

NOTE:
•The media player does not support audio files com-
pressed with other formats and DRM (Digital Rights
Management) protected audio files. 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 center console USB port. After turning the ignition
key to ON, BLUE&ME™ will start building your
media library. At the end of this operation you can surf
the complete library and scroll its categories as re-
quired using the buttons on the steering wheel or voice
commands. BLUE&ME™ will then play your selection
via the car sound system.WARNING!
• Driving while distracted can result in loss of ve-
hicle 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 op-
eration of your vehicle.
• The use of any handheld device while driving is
not recommended. Use voice-operated systems
when possible. Follow all applicable laws that may
affect the use of electronic devices while driving.

WARNING!
Having the volume turned up high can cause the
driver to not be able to hear important traffic sounds,
i.e. sirens, horns, etc. Failure to hear traffic sounds
and other important audible information can result
in serious injury or death. Always adjust the volume
so that you can still hear background noises.
Care And Maintenance
Clean the cover with a soft antistatic cloth only. Cleaning
and polishing products could damage the surface.
CDs
The presence of dirt, scratches or distortions on the CDs
could cause skipping and poor sound quality while it is
playing. For optimal playback conditions, follow these
guidelines:
•Only use branded CDs. •
Clean every CD thoroughly removing any finger
marks or dust using a soft cloth. Hold CDs by the
outside and clean them from the middle outwards.
• Never use chemicals (e.g. antistatics or thinners or
sprays) for cleaning as they could damage the surface
of the CDs.
• After listening to them place CDs back in their boxes to
prevent them from being damaged.
• Do not expose CDs to direct sunlight, high tempera-
tures or moisture for long periods.
• Do not stick labels on the CD surface or write on the
recorded surface with pencils or pens.
• Do not use CDs that are very scratched, flawed,
distorted, etc. Using discs like these will result in
malfunctions or damage to the player.

•The use of original CD media is required for the best
quality audio production. Correct operation is not
guaranteed when CD-R/RW media are used that were
not correctly burned and/or with a maximum capacity
above 650 Mb.
• Do not use commercially available protective sheets
for CDs or discs, with stabilizers, etc. as they could get
stuck in the internal mechanism and damage the disc.
• If a copy-protected CD is used, it may take a few
seconds before the system starts to play it. The CD
player cannot be guaranteed to play all protected
discs. The fact that the CD is protected from being
copied is often shown in very small letters or is
difficult to read on the actual CD cover where it may
be, for example, “COPY CONTROL,” “COPY PRO-
TECTED,” “THIS CD CANNOT BE PLAYED ON A
PC/MAC.” •
The CD player is capable of reading most compression
systems currently in use, following the development of
these systems, the reading of all compression formats
is not guaranteed.
