I have just bought my first Fiat, a 2012 Bravo MyLife which appears to be a good buy even though the Blue&Me system seems to have a mind of its own on occasions. I have two questions for those with more experience of the vehicle:-
1. The radio always comes on with the ignition even if it was turned off when last stopped, is there any way to turn it off so it stays off?
2. The car doesn't have the port on the dashboard for a TomTom but on the Blue&Me website there appears to be a satnav system that shows directions on the dashboard panel between the main dials, is this something different?

Thanks to anyone out there.

Hi Jag,

Here's the instructions for the radio, you need to access the 2nd level menu - hope it helps

1stly you need to use the Menu RDs Button for menu activation

Manual station tuning: short push on button
1st level menu activation: short push on button
2nd level menu activation: long push on button

Here's the bit in the 2nd level menu

- AUTO (function setting)
With this function it is possible to set radio
turning on/off depending on car ignition/
switching off or independent.
With this function on (radio is set to
switch off when the car is switched off),
it is however possible to switch on the radio.
With this function off, when switching off
the car the radio stays on.
Use buttons È or Í to turn this function
on/off.
The display will show the current function
condition:
– “AUTO: ON” = function on
– “AUTO: OFF” = function off

As for the Sat Nav could you mean possibly an optional extra of Connectnav that I believe was available to some markets - ain't sure about ours.

Thanks for those replies, I saw the in-dashboard satnav on the fiat.com website so it probably isn't available in the UK although the lady explaining it had a very nice BBC English voice!
