6. Additional functions

6.1 Driver fatigue alert

To help drivers keep track of how tired they might be getting, the device comes with a fatigue alert. This takes into account various physiological and journey related parameters; for example, it considers the time of day and the time spent driving. The device will alert you every two hours of driving, to remind you that fatigue could be becoming an issue.

As well this alert, there is also a fatigue indicator on the device's display. With a low fatigue rating below 60, the indicator is green. When the fatigue rating is between 60 and 80 the indicator is yellow. When the fatigue rating reaches 80, the indicator turns red. When you switch on this driver fatigue feature, it's important that you set correct system time (so it knows at what time of day you're driving). If you have this feature switched off, the fatigue rating will not be displayed on the screen.
