Product Description
Localised map colours let you select your familiar paper map road colour scheme for the sat nav mapping, providing at-a-glance recognition of the routes along your journey.

The ecoRoute™ fuel-saver feature helps you save money and fuel and reduce your carbon footprint with the option to follow the ‘less fuel’ route to your destination. It promotes fuel-efficient navigation, considering factors such as driving style, number of stops and speed limits and accurately calculates journey cost based on the price paid at the pump. The advanced routing capabilities of myTrends™ learns your driving habits to predict your destination, refining your route planning saving you time when making repeat journeys.
Manufacturer's Description
Lane Assist with junction view shows the correct lane choice for upcoming junctions and motorway exits with accurate road signs for confidence driving on unfamiliar roads without hesitation, panic or last-minute lane changes. nüRoute™ myTrends™ technology learns your driving habits and recognises your favourite destinations to predict where you're going based on the time of day and your location. This saves time otherwise spent manually activating a route on a repeat journey and refines your route planning based on previous travel experiences and past route conditions.
The integrated unique Cyclops™ safety camera warning system gives real-time, direction-relevant and accurate alerts with overspeed warning as you approach one of hundreds of fixed, mobile, variable limit and temporary safety cameras. nüvi 2240 also enables you to correct and update road speeds and share your changes with other users via USB.
Multi-route preview shows available routes on the map for visual comparison before selecting your preferred journey and the ecoRoute™ fuel-saver feature helps you save money and fuel and reduce your carbon footprint with the option to follow the ‘less fuel’ route to your destination.
Experience complete door-to-door navigation with nüvi 2240’s pedestrian navigation capabilities. Purchase optional cityXplorer mapping and enjoy enhanced pedestrian navigation for directions for walking including footpaths and shortcuts through parks – places you wouldn’t be accessing while in your car. It also tells you where to catch trains, buses and tubes (dependent on the city) and how long it will take you to reach your destination. cityXplorer even contains public transport timetables to ensure you arrive at the station on time and avoid long waits (dependent on the city). When continuing the journey on foot, nüvi 2240 uses Park Position Recall to automatically mark and help you navigate back to the place you park – ideal when leaving your vehicle on an unfamiliar road or busy retail complex.
The Where am I? emergency locator is a safety feature that can be very helpful if you break down or need a local service urgently. Simply tap the car icon on the map screen to get your exact coordinates, address and junction, contact details for vehicle recovery services and directions to your nearest hospitals, police and petrol stations.
