ROAD SAFETY
Read and Follow Instructions:before using your system, read and follow all instructions and safety information provided in this
end user manual (“User’s Guide”). Not following precautions found in this User’s Guide can lead to an accident or other serious con-
sequences.
Keep User’s Guide in the car: when kept in the car, the User’s Guide will be a ready reference for you and other users unfamiliar with the
system. Please make certain that before using the system for the first time, all persons have access to the User’s Guide and read its instructions
and safety information carefully.
WARNING: Operating certain parts of this system while driving can distract your attention away from the road, and possibly
cause an accident or other serious consequences. Do not change system settings or enter data non-verbally (using your
hands) while driving. Stop the car in a safe and legal manner before attempting these operations. This is important since
while setting up or changing some functions you might be required to distract your attention away from the road and re-
move your hands from the wheel.
GENERAL OPERATION
Voice Command Control: functions within the system may be accomplished using only voice commands. Using voice commands while dri-
ving allows you to operate the system without removing your hands from the wheel.
Prolonged Views of Screen: do not access any function requiring a prolonged view of the screen while you are driving. Pull over in a safe
and legal manner before attempting to access a function of the system requiring prolonged attention. Even occasional short scans to the screen
may be hazardous if your attention has been diverted away from your driving task at a critical time.
Volume Setting: do not raise the volume excessively. Keep the volume at a level where you can still hear outside traffic and emergency sig-
nals while driving. Driving while unable to hear these sounds could cause an accident.
Use of Speech Recognition Functions: speech recognition software is inherently a statistical process which is subject to errors. It is your
responsibility to monitor any speech recognition functions included in the system and address any errors.
Distraction Hazard: any features may require manual (non-verbal) setup. Attempting to perform such set-up or insert data while driving can
seriously distract your attention and could cause an accident or other serious consequences. Stop the vehicle in a safe and legal manner before
attempting these operations.
WARNING
Operating certain parts of this system while driving can distract your attention away from the road, and possi-
bly cause an accident or other serious consequences; for this reason certain functions shall only be used when
driving conditions are secure and, if required, only when the car is stopped.

Blue&Me™ Navuses your in-car audio
equipment to deliver audio output (hands-
free phone conversation, media player,
voice announcements and tone signals).
For this purpose, the current audio pro-
gram is muted for the time needed.
You can always adjust the audio volume
either through the radio or the steering
wheel controls.
When the audio system is used by
Blue&Me™ Nav, the radio display will
show dedicated messages.Blue&Me™ Nav FUNCTION
MENU
Blue&Me™ NavMain Menu displays op-
tions within a structured list. Each option
(item) in the menu can be viewed on the
instrument panel multifunction display.
Available options enable to activate the dif-
ferent functions or to change the settings
of your Blue&Me™ Navsystem.
Note
It is possible to navigate in the menu using
the steering wheel buttons only when the
car is not moving.
The Main Menu includes the following op-
tions:
❒LAST CALLS- this submenu allows
you to view a list of the recent calls
made or received. This list is either
downloaded from your mobile phone
memory, or accumulated via use of the
hands-free phone, or both.
❒PHONEBOOK- this submenu allows
you to view the phone numbers in
your phonebook and to select one to
dial. If there is a large amount of entries
in your phonebook, then the items will
be contained in groups within alpha-
betical submenus indicating the contacts
within that group. The number of con-
tacts within a group depends on the
amount of entries in your phonebook.

FUNCTIONS OF THE
NAVIGATION SYSTEM
Blue&Me™ Navleads 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 al-
lows you to navigate towards a destina-
tion address, to call up programmed des-
tinations or points of interest (e.g.: hotels,
restaurants, chemists, airports, railway sta-
tions, authorised workshops etc.). The
car’s position is determined by the GPS
(Global Position System), by processing
signals from GPS satellites and the car’s
odometric signals. Blue&Me™ Navus-
es digital mapping data preloaded onto
your USB device to lead you to your de-
sired destination by the best possible
route from your current location.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™ Navnavigator takes
a few minutes to determine the car’s
new position if the car is moved with
the system turned off (e.g. after trans-
porting the car on a ferry).
❒If the vehicle battery is disconnected,
the GPS takes about 15 minutes to ac-
tivate.
❒The system is equipped with a self-cal-
ibration function that needs to oper-
ate for about 100 km when the system
is first turned on or if the tyres are
changed. During this stage, the position
could be calculated with less accuracy.
❒Under continuous conditions of low
wheel grip (e.g. when skidding on ice),
the system may temporarily record an
inaccurate position.
Navigation display
On the control panel reconfigurable mul-
tifunction display (see fig. 3), the ma-
noeuvres 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 ma-
noeuvre is to be carried out.
A– Navigation pictogram
B– Distance to the next turn-off
C– Street name
Voice messages
The voice messages issued by the system
recommend all manoeuvres to be carried
in plenty of time: in particular, advance
warning of the manoeuvre to be carried
out is given, followed by detailed instruc-
tions on when to carry out the manoeu-
vre.
To repeat the last voice message, press
the
‘key and say “Next maneuver”.
The instructions provided by
Blue&Me™ Nav do not ex-
onerate the driver from full responsi-
bility for any manoeuvres carried out
in traffic while driving the car and for
respecting the highway code and oth-
er road traffic regulations. Responsi-
bility for road safety always lies with
the driver of the car under all circum-
stances.
