FUNCTION OF THE NAVIGATION SYSTEM

Blue&Me™ Nav leads you to your cho-
sen destination quickly and safely by means
of its navigation function by means of voice
synthesis and pictograms that appear on a
reconfigurable multifunction display on the
control panel. The navigation system allows
you to navigate towards a destination ad-
dress, to call up programmed destinations
or points of interest (e.g.: hotels, restau-
rants, chemists, airports, railway stations,
authorised workshops etc.). The car's posi-
tion is determined by the GPS (Global Po-
sition System), by processing signals from
GPS satellites and the car's odometric sig-
nals. Blue&Me™ Nav uses digital map-
ping data preloaded onto your USB device
to lead you to your desired destination by
the best possible route from your current lo-
cation.
The instructions provided by
Blue&Me™ Nav do not
exonerate the driver from
full responsibility for any manoeu-
vres carried out in traffic while dri-
ving the car and for respecting the
highway code and other road traf-
fic regulations. Responsibility for
road safety always lies with the dri-
ver of the car under all circum-
stances.
Notes
❍ GPS reception is difficult under trees,
among tall buildings, in covered car-
parks, in tunnels and in any place where
the satellite aerial reception may be hin-
dered.
❍ The Blue&Me™ Nav navigator takes
a few minutes to determine the car's new
position if the car is moved with the sys-
tem turned off (e.g. after transporting
the car on a ferry).
❍ If the vehicle battery is disconnected, the
GPS takes about 15 minutes to activate.
❍ The system is equipped with a self-cali-
bration function that needs to operate for
about 100 km when the system is first
turned on or if the tyres are changed. Dur-
ing this stage, the position could be cal-
culated with less accuracy.
❍ Under continuous conditions of low wheel
grip (e.g. when skidding on ice), the sys-
tem may temporarily record an inaccu-
rate position.

Navigation display

On the control panel reconfigurable multi-
function display (see fig. 3), the manoeu-
vres to be carried out (right turn, left turn,
drive round round-about, go straight on or
change direction) are displayed by means
of pictograms.
The display also indicates the name of the
current street and the distance to the next
turn-off. The name shown near the turn-off
is that of the street where the manoeuvre is
to be carried out.
