At first pairing, the system will say "Wel-

The system asks if you would like to
copy your paired phone phonebook. It
is recommended to copy it. To start copy-
ing the phonebook, pronounce "Yes";
otherwise say "No".
For certain mobile phones the phone-
book is not copied automatically, in this
case you must send the contacts in your

Practical hints
To improve both the voice recognition of your
phonebook entries and Blue&Me™ pro-
nunciation accuracy when repeating the en-
tries, 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 ac-
cording 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 ini-
tials 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 Blue-
tooth
® setting must be turned on in or-
der 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 (not all mobile phones
support automatic downloading of the di-
rectory).
