GETTING TO KNOW
THE VOICE COMMANDS
When talking to the system, you can al-
ways use the voice command “Help” to
obtain detailed instructions on the voice
commands available for each interactive
stage.
To practise the “Help” command, pro-
ceed as follows:
❒Press the steering wheel control ‘.
❒After Blue&Me™beeps to indicate
that voice recognition is on, say
“Help”. Blue&Me™will give the list
of voice commands available.
❒At the end of the help message, say
“Settings” and, at the end of the mes-
sage, “Help”. Blue&Me™will repeat
the list of voice commands available for
the SETTINGSmenu.
❒You can then say one of the available
commands and proceed with the dia-
logue as you wish.
❒If you need more help, press ‘and say
“Help”.REGISTERING YOUR MOBILE
PHONE
IMPORTANT This operation should on-
ly be carried out with the car stationary.
To register your mobile phone, proceed
as follows:
❒Press ‘and say “Settings” and then,
at the end of the message provided by
Blue&Me™, say “Register User”.
❒The system shows the code number
(PIN) on the instrument panel multi-
function display to be used for registra-
tion. For the next two stages, consult
the chapters in your mobile phone man-
ual on registration and connecting via
Bluetooth
®technology.
❒Find the devices on your mobile phone
with Bluetooth®technology (the set-
ting on your mobile phone could be
called Searchor New Device, for exam-
ple). Find “Blue&Me” in this list (the
name that identifies the Blue&Me™
system in your vehicle) and select it.
❒When prompted, enter the PIN dis-
played on the instrument panel using
your mobile phone keypad. If the reg-
istration is successful, the system will
say “Connection in progress” and at
the end will show on the display, as
confirmation, details of the mobile
phone registered.
It is important to wait for this confirma-
tion message – if you press
ß/MENUor
&/ESCbefore it appears, you risk can-
celling the registration process. If the reg-
istration fails, an error message will ap-
pear; in this case, you will need to repeat
the procedure.
❒After registering your mobile phone,
Blue&Me™will say “Welcome” the
first time you connect. You will not
hear this when registering or connect-
ing the same phone in the future.

❒Blue&Me™asks you if you want to copy
across the contacts of the mobile phone
just registered on the Blue&Me™sys-
tem. Copying the phonebook is recom-
mended. To proceed with copying, say
“Yes”; if you do not want to copy the
phonebook, say “No”.
❒On some mobile phones, the names in
the directory are not copied automati-
cally, but have to be transferred by the
user using the mobile phone keypad. If
Blue&Me™asks you, carry out this
procedure by following the specific in-
structions on your mobile phone and
press
ß/MENUwhen you have finished. MAKING A CALL
Imagine that Mark is one of the names
saved in your phonebook.
To call Mark, proceed as follows:
❒Press the steering wheel control ‘and say “Call Mark”.
❒If the system recognises the name Mark,
it will show the information relating to
this name on the display.
If your phonebook has only one number
stored for Mark, the system will ask you
directly if you want to call him. To make
the call, say “Yes”; otherwise, say “No”.
If, on the other hand, there are several
phone numbers for Mark, the system will
ask which one you wish to call (for ex-
ample, “Call Mark work or home?”).
Respond by indicating which number you
want to call (for example, “Home”). If you have several telephone numbers for
Mark, but there is no indication of the type
of number, the system will show the name
together with the list of telephone num-
bers on the display. The hands-free sys-
tem will ask you if you want to call the
telephone number displayed. If the num-
ber displayed is the one you wish to call,
say “Yes”; otherwise, say “No”. If the
person to contact is the correct one, but
the number is wrong, say “Forward” or
“Back” to see the other phone numbers
for this person. To call the number dis-
played, say “Call”. You can also navigate
through this list manually by pressing the
steering wheel controls
Nor Ountil you
find the desired number. When you do,
press
ß/MENUor SRC/OKto make
the call.
❒To end the call, press ß/MENUfor
more than one second.
If you have difficulty using the vehicle's
hands-free system, consult the TROU-
BLESHOOTING – HANDS-FREE section.

VOICE COMMANDS
You do not need to alter your normal dri-
ving position for your voice commands to
be recognised by the system. In fact, the
microphone is correctly positioned and di-
rected for this purpose.
The words that are recognised by the sys-
tem are identified as voice commands.
The hands-free system recognises and re-
sponds to a preset list of voice commands.
The list of voice commands available de-
pends on the point you are at in the hands-
free system menu. The list of voice com-
mands available is accessible at any time by
pressing
‘and saying “Help”, or by say-
ing “Help” after a message from the sys-
tem. Blue&Me™also recognises per-
sonalised voice commands, such as, for ex-
ample, the names in your contacts.To use the voice commands, the voice
recognition system does not need time to
learn your voice.
To give the system a voice command,
press
‘and wait for the audible signal in-
dicating that the voice recognition system
is activated; you can now give the com-
mand in your normal voice – not too
quickly, but without hesitation. When the
system recognises the command, it will re-
spond or perform an action.
The voice commands are divided into lev-
el 1, level 2 and level 3.
When a valid* level 1 voice command is
given, the system is ready to recognise lev-
el 2 voice commands; when a valid level
2 voice command is given, the system is
ready to recognise level 3 voice com-
mands.
* Validmeans that the voice command is part of the Blue&Me™vocabulary and therefore recognisable at a given level.
USING Blue&Me™
STEERING WHEEL CONTROLS
The steering wheel controls (see fig. 1)
are for the hands-free functions, activat-
ing voice recognition, the Media Player
functions or selecting an option from the
Blue&Me™menu.
Some commands have different functions
in relation to the status of the system at
a given moment.
The function selected in response to the
pressing of a button depends, in some cas-
es, on how long the button is held down for.
For more information, see the DISPLAY
AND STEERING WHEEL CONTROLS
section.
N.B.
Instructions on using the system through
manual controls are shown in the text by

If the user gives a valid level 1 voice com-
mand, the sub-menu for that command re-
mains activated until a voice command
leading to another level is given or the in-
teraction is interrupted; the same rule ap-
plies for lower levels (2 and 3).

mands, refer to the LIST OF AVAILABLE
VOICE COMMANDS section.
To listen again to the last message given
by the system, press

announcement is a voice message spoken
directly by the system. To stop a vocal an-
nouncement, press
&/ESC, or press ‘and say “Cancel”.
A vocal interaction is an exchange of com-
munication/commands between the hands-
free system and the user. To start a vocal
interaction, press
‘and give a command.
To stop an interaction and start a new one,
press
‘at any time during the interaction
and give a voice command.
To end an interaction, press
&/ESC. You
will hear a signal indicating that voice
recognition has been deactivated.The help function can provide you, at any
time, with a list of commands available for
the level you are at. To use the help sys-
tem, say “Help”, listen to the list of com-
mands available and decide which com-
mand to give to the system.
Adjust the volume to the level that is best
for you with the vehicle in motion.
To adjust the preset Blue&Me™volume,
refer to the “EXTERNAL AUDIO func-
tion” section in the sound system in-
struction manual. To temporarily adjust
the volume of an ongoing call, press +
or−or turn the sound system knob. At
the end of the call, the volume will return
to its original level.
You can also press +or −to adjust the
volume of a vocal announcement while it
is being said by Blue&Me™.
Remember that to interrupt a vocal an-
nouncement you can press
‘at any time
during a vocal interaction and provide
a new voice command.N.B.
❒Instructions on using the system
through voice commands are shown in
the text by the symbol
}.
❒After having pressed ‘, if you do not
give a voice command within a few sec-
onds, the system will ask you to give
a voice command. If you do not re-
spond, voice recognition is deactivated.
This also happens if you do not provide
a response to a question from the sys-
tem. In these cases, you will hear a sig-
nal indicating that voice recognition has
been deactivated.
❒When the system fails to recognise
your voice command, it will give you an-
other chance to give the command. If
you are not sure that the voice com-
mand is correct at a given level, say
“Help”.

Using voice recognition
The voice recognition system, sometimes,
can make a mistake when recognising
a voice command. To make sure you that
your voice commands are always recog-
nised, use the following guidelines:
❒After having pressed ‘, give the voice
command after the system has provid-
ed the audible signal indicating that
voice recognition is on.
❒After the system has asked you a ques-
tion, wait a second before giving the an-
swer, in order to be sure that voice
recognition is on.
❒If you want to give a command without
waiting for the system to finish its mes-
sage or question, you can briefly press
the
‘button again to interrupt the sys-
tem and give your command.
❒Speak at a normal volume.
❒Say the words clearly: not too quickly,
but without hesitation.
❒If possible, try to reduce noise inside the
passenger compartment to a minimum.
❒Before giving voice commands, ask your
passengers not to speak. Since the sys-
tem recognises the words regardless of
who speaks, if several people speak at
the same time, the system may pick up
different or additional words to those
that you have said.
❒For optimum operation it is advisable
to close the sunroof if your vehicle has
one. N.B.
For countries where a mother-tongue
version is not available, voice recognition
of the commands and especially the
phonebook contacts could be difficult. We
advise adopting pronunciation that con-
forms to the language in Blue&Me™.
To change the voice recognition language,
contact a Fiat Dealership or see the dedi-
cated section on www.fiat.it.
