Consider carefully where to install your TomTom navigation device in your car. The navigation device should not block or interfere with any of the following:

• Your view of the road
  ■ Any of the controls in your car
• Any of your mirrors
• Any airbags

When your navigation device is installed, you should be able to reach the device easily without leaning or stretching. You can attach the device to the windshield or you can use a Dashboard Mount Disk to attach the mount to your dashboard. Dashboard Mount Disks are included with some products and are available as accessories. The following diagrams show where you can safely attach the mount.

TomTom also offers alternative mounting solutions for your TomTom navigation device. For more information about Dashboard Mount Disks and alternative mounting solutions, go to tomtom.com/accessories.

Installing in your car

Use the mount provided with your device to install your TomTom device in your vehicle. You can attach your device to your windshield or use a Dashboard Mount Disk to attach your device to your dashboard. See the printed installation instructions included with your product for more information. Read the instructions about positioning your device before you install your device.

To install your device, do the following:

1. Choose the best location to mount your TomTom device. The location should be as smooth as possible.
2. If you are using the Dashboard Mounting Disk, clean the dashboard and install the disk.
3. Make sure that both the suction cup on the mount and your windshield or disk are clean and dry.
4. Press the suction cup of the mount firmly against your windshield or disk.

5. Turn the rubber grip near the base of the mount in a clockwise direction until you feel it lock.

6. If your mount is not integrated into your device, place your device in the mount, making sure that it clicks into place.

7. Plug the USB car charger into the power supply on your dashboard.
8. Connect the USB cable to the car charger and your TomTom device.

Your navigation device is now installed. The next step is to switch it on and answer a few questions.

Switching on and off

To switch on your navigation device, press and hold the On/Off button until you see the start-up screen. The first time you switch on your device, you have to hold the button down for up to 15 seconds.

Setting up

Important: Take care to select the correct language as the language you choose will be used for all text on the screen.

When you first switch on your device, you have to answer a few questions to set up the device. Answer the questions by tapping the screen.

GPS reception

When you first start your TomTom navigation device, the device may need a few minutes to determine your GPS position and show your current position on the map. In the future, your position will be found much faster, usually within a few seconds.

To ensure good GPS reception, you should use your device outdoors and keep your device upright. Large objects such as tall buildings can sometimes interfere with reception. GPS reception can also be affected if the device is placed flat on a surface or held flat in your hand.

microSD card slot

Some types of TomTom navigation devices have a microSD card slot that is located on the side or on the bottom of the device.

Before you use the memory card slot, make sure that you have the latest version of the application installed on your navigation device by connecting to MyTomTom. When your device is up to date, you can use a memory card as extra storage space to add extra maps to your device. Maps can be purchased from tomtom.com.

About MyTomTom

MyTomTom helps you manage the contents and services of your TomTom navigation device, as well as giving you access to the TomTom community. You log in to MyTomTom on the TomTom website. It is a good idea to frequently connect your navigation device to MyTomTom to ensure you always have the latest updates.

Tip: We recommend using a broadband internet connection whenever you connect your navigation device to MyTomTom.

Setting up MyTomTom

To set up MyTomTom, do the following:

1. Connect your computer to the internet.
2. Start a browser and go to tomtom.com/getstarted.
3. Click Download now.

Your browser downloads the MyTomTom support application, which you need to install on your computer in order to connect your device to MyTomTom. Follow the instructions on the screen if you are asked questions while downloading.

1. When prompted, connect your device to your computer using the USB cable. Then switch your device on.

Important: You should plug the USB cable directly into a USB port on your computer and not into a USB hub or USB port on a keyboard or monitor.

Once the MyTomTom support application is installed, you can access MyTomTom from the notification area on your desktop.

Tip: When you connect your navigation device to your computer, MyTomTom tells you if there are any updates for your device.

Safety settings

We recommend using the safety settings to make your driving as safe as possible.

These are some of the options included in the safety settings:

• Show essential menu buttons while driving
  ■ Show safety reminders
• Warn when driving faster than allowed

If your device supports voice control, you can also drive more safely by using voice control to control your navigation device.

Device not starting

In rare cases, your TomTom navigation device may not start correctly or may stop responding to your taps.

First, check that the battery is charged. To charge the battery, connect your device to the car charger. It can take up to 2 hours to fully charge the battery.

If this does not solve the problem, you can reset the device. To do this, press and hold the On/Off button until your device begins to restart.

Charging your device

The battery in your TomTom navigation device charges when you connect it to the car charger or to your computer.

Important: You should plug the USB connector directly into a USB port on your computer and not into a USB hub or USB port on a keyboard or monitor.

Safety Notice

Some navigation devices contain a GSM/GPRS module which can interfere with electrical devices such as cardiac pacemakers, hearing aids and aviation equipment.

Interference with these devices may endanger the health or life of you or others.

If your device includes a GSM/GPRS module, do not use it near unprotected electrical units or in areas where the use of mobile telephones is prohibited, such as hospitals and aircraft.

Take care of your navigation device

It is important to take care of your device:

• Do not open the casing of your device under any circumstances. Doing so may be dangerous and will void the warranty.
• Wipe or dry the screen of your device using a soft cloth. Do not use any liquid cleaners.

Getting help to use your navigation device

You can get further help by going to tomtom.com/support.

For warranty information, go to tomtom.com/legal.

Planning a route

Planning a route

Important: In the interest of safety and to reduce distractions while you are driving, you should always plan a route before you start driving.

To plan a route on your TomTom device, do the following:

1. Tap the screen to open the Main Menu.

1. Tap Navigate to or Drive to.

2. Tap Address.

You can change the country or state setting by tapping the flag before you select a city.

1. Enter the town or city name, or the postcode.

Tip: If your device supports voice control, instead of typing the address, tap the microphone button to enter the address by speaking to your TomTom device.

Towns with similar names are shown in the list while you type.

When the correct city or town appears in the list, tap the name to select the destination.

1. Enter the street name.

Streets with similar names are shown in the list while you type.

When the correct street name appears in the list, tap the name to select the destination.

1. Enter the house number, then tap Done.

1. The location is shown on the map. Tap Select to continue or tap Back to enter another address.

Important: If you are planning a travel trailer or RV route and no specific route can be found, you are asked if you want to use a car route instead. If you use a car route pay special attention to any route restrictions while driving.

Tip: If you want your final destination to be a car park, tap Car park and select a location from the list of car parks close to your general destination.

1. When the new route is shown, tap Done.

For more information about the route, tap Details.

To change your route, for example, to travel via a particular location or to select a new destination, tap Change route.

Your device starts to guide you to your destination, using spoken instructions and on-screen directions.

Route summary

The route summary shows an overview of your route, the remaining distance to your destination and the remaining estimated trip time.

To view the route summary, tap the right-hand panel on the status bar in the Driving view or tap View route in the Main Menu and then tap Show route summary.

If you have HD Traffic or an RDS-TMC receiver, the route summary also shows traffic information about delays on your route.

Note: To use a TomTom traffic information service, you may need a subscription or a receiver. Traffic services are not supported in all countries or regions. For more information, visit tomtom.com/services.

Alternative routes

Note: This feature is not available on all TomTom navigation devices.

Your TomTom device helps you reach your destination as quickly as possible by showing you a faster alternative route when one is available.

To take the alternative route, tap the balloon at the top of the screen. If you don't want to follow the alternative route, keep driving to continue to receive instructions for your original route.

Tip: The alternative route disappears when it is no longer faster than your original route or it is too late for you to choose it.

To change how you are asked about alternative routes, tap Settings and then Route planning. Tap Next until you reach Replanning settings.

Selecting a route type

Every time you plan a route, you can choose to be asked about the type of route you want to plan.

To do this, tap Settings followed by Route planning, then Route types. Tap Ask me every time I plan.

If you are using a TomTom camper and caravan product, to choose the type of route you have to set your vehicle type to Car. Tap Settings followed by Vehicle and routes, then Vehicle and route types. Select Car as your vehicle type, then tap Ask me every time I plan.

Note: You can only choose to be asked about the type of route when you select a car as your vehicle.

The types of route you can choose from are as follows:

• Fastest route - the route which takes the least time.
• Eco route - the most fuel-efficient route for your trip.
• Shortest route - the shortest distance between the locations you set. This may not be the quickest route, especially if the shortest route is through a town or city.
• Walking route - a route designed for making the trip on foot.
• Bicycle route - a route designed for making the trip on a bicycle.

Tap Next. If you selected Fastest route, you have to choose if you want to always avoid motorways.

Frequent destinations

If you often make trips to the same destinations, you can set your TomTom device to ask if you want to plan a route to one of these locations every time the device starts. This is faster than planning a route in the normal way.

Show my frequent destinations

You can set your TomTom device to ask if you want to plan a route to one of your frequently visited destinations every time the device starts.

To change this setting, do the following:

1. Tap Start up in the Settings menu and then select Ask for a destination.
2. Tap Yes, then tap Yes again to begin entering information about the destination.
3. Select a symbol for the destination and tap Done to set the symbol, then tap Yes.

1. Tap Yes and if required enter a new name, then tap Done.
2. Enter the address details in the same way you enter an address when planning a route, then tap Done.
3. If you want to set more destinations, repeat the steps above. Otherwise, tap Done.
4. You are asked if you want to change the start-up image.
5. If you want to change the image, tap Yes then follow the instructions shown on the screen. Otherwise, tap No.

Every time your device starts, you are asked if you want to plan a route. If you tap Cancel, the Driving View opens.

Using arrival times

You can set your TomTom device to ask you if you need to arrive at a particular time when you plan a route.

Tap Status bar in the Settings menu to enable or disable arrival time notifications.

To enable arrival time notifications select Leeway.

Status bar

After planning a route, tap YES to enter a preferred arrival time.

Your device calculates your arrival time and shows you whether you will arrive on time.

You can also use this information to work out when you need to leave. If your device shows that you will arrive 30 minutes early, you can wait and leave in 30 minutes time, rather than arrive early.

Your arrival time is constantly recalculated during your trip. The status bar shows whether you will arrive on time or if you are going to be late, as shown below:

+55mm	You will arrive 55 minutes before the arrival time you entered.
	If the estimated arrival time is more than five minutes before the time you entered, it is shown in green.
+3mm	You will arrive 3 minutes before the arrival time you entered.
	If the estimated arrival time is less than 5 minutes before the time you entered, it is shown in yellow.
-19mm	You will arrive 19 minutes late.
	If the estimated arrival time is later than the time you entered, it is shown in red.

Planning a route in advance

You can use your TomTom device to plan a route in advance, selecting your starting point and your destination.

Here are some more reasons to plan a route in advance:

• Find out how long a trip is going to take before you start.
• You can also compare trip times for the same route at different times of the day or on different days of the week. Your device uses IQ Routes when planning a route. IQ Routes calculates routes based on the real average speeds measured on roads.
  ■ Study the route of a trip you are planning.
• Check a route for someone who is coming to visit you and then explain the route to them in detail.

To plan a route in advance, follow these steps:

1. Tap the screen to bring up the Main menu.

2. Tap the arrow button to move to the next menu screen and tap Plan route.

This button is shown while there is no planned route on your TomTom device.

1. Select the starting point for your trip in the same way that you would select your destination.

2. Set the destination for your trip.

3. If Route planning settings are set to Ask me every time I plan, select the type of route you want to plan:

- Fastest route - the route which takes the least time.

- Eco route - the most fuel-efficient route for your trip.

- Shortest route - the shortest distance between the locations you set. This may not be the quickest route, especially if the shortest route is through a town or city.

- Avoid highways - a route which avoids highways.

- Walking route - a route designed for making the trip on foot.

- Bicycle route - a route designed for making the trip on a bicycle.

1. Choose the date and time that you will make the trip you are planning.

Your device uses IQ Routes to work out the best possible route at that time. This is useful to see how long a trip takes at different times of the day or on different days of the week.

Your navigation device plans the route between the two locations you selected.

About voice control

Note: Voice control is not supported on all devices or in all languages.

Instead of tapping the screen to control your TomTom device, you can use your voice to control your device.

For example, to increase the volume on your device, you can say "Increase volume" or "Volume 50%."

To view the list of available commands, tap Help in the Main menu, tap Product manuals and then tap What to say.

Important: Voice control requires a voice that speaks street names. When there is no voice that speaks street names installed and selected on your TomTom, this feature is not available.

To select a voice that speaks street names, tap Voices in the Settings menu, then tap Change voice and select a voice that speaks street names.

Using voice control

Voice control is switched on by default if it is supported for your chosen language.

To switch off voice control and remove the button from the Driving view, tap Voice control in the Settings menu and select Disable voice control.

The following example shows how to use voice control to plan a trip to your Home address:

1. Tap the microphone button in the Driving view to turn on the microphone.

You see a screen with examples of commands you can say.

Tap What to say to see a full list of commands you can say. Alternatively, tap Settings in the Main menu, tap Voice control and then tap What to say.

1. When you hear "Say a command" followed by a tone, say a command of your choice. For example, you can say "Drive home." Your device is only ready to listen after your hear the tone.

While you are speaking the microphone monitor shows how well the device can hear your voice:

A green bar means the device can hear your voice.

A red bar means your voice is too loud for the device to recognize individual words.

A gray bar means your voice is too quiet for the device to recognize individual words.

For some phrases, your device repeats what you say and asks for confirmation.

Tip: For the best recognition of what you say, speak normally without trying to articulate words in an unnatural way. If there is excessive road noise, for example, you may need to speak in the direction of the microphone.

1. If the command is correct, say "Yes."

If the command is incorrect, say "No" and repeat the command after you hear the prompt and tone again.

Your device plans a route from your current location to your destination.

Tip: To stop your device from listening for further commands, say "Cancel." To go back one step, say "Back."

Entering addresses using your voice

Even if you don't use voice control to start planning a trip, you can still use your voice to enter the address.

To start planning a trip tap Navigate to or Drive to in the Main menu, then tap Address, and then Spoken Address.

Tap this button to enter an address entirely using speech.

Spoken address helps you to enter information without tapping the screen.

Spoken address

Tips

To make it easier to start entering an address using your voice, you can add this button to the Quick Menu on the Driving View. To do this, tap Make your own menu in the Settings menu and then tap Drive to spoken address.

Your TomTom recognizes places and street names when they are spoken in the local language using local pronunciation.

Spoken address entry is not possible for postal codes which must be entered using the keyboard.

Planning a trip using your voice

Note: It's not possible to plan a route using your voice for all maps in all countries, or in all languages.

You can navigate to any of the following types of places using your voice:

■ An address, including home.
■ Cities and towns and their centers.
- Favorites.
■ POI categories.
■ A recent destination.

- POIs for named brands of, for example, restaurants, gas stations, car rental companies and gyms.

To plan a route to an address using speech, do the following:

1. Tap the voice control button in the Driving view.

1. When you hear the tone, you can say, for example "Drive to an address."

Tip: Your device has either Navigate to or Drive to on the button in the Main Menu. When planning a route to an address using speech, say "Navigate to address" if the button shows Navigate to or "Drive to address" if the button shows Drive to.

1. Say the full address for your destination, for example, 112 Main Street, Riverside, California.

Numbers can be pronounced naturally or one at a time. For example, 357 can be pronounced as "Three fifty seven" or "Three, five, seven."

Your TomTom tells you what it heard.

1. Say "Yes" if the address is correct. If shown a list of addresses, say the list number for the correct address or say "none of these."

If part of the address is incorrect, you can say something like "change the number," "change the street," "change the city" or "change the state" to correct the incorrect part.

To begin again, say "start over."

Tip: You may want to limit the search area for addresses to one state if you drive within the same state most of the time. To change the search area for addresses, tap Settings in the Main menu then tap Voice control and then tap Set address search area.

Your TomTom starts to guide you to your destination, using spoken instructions and on-screen directions.

Tips:

You can also use your voice to search for the nearest Point of interest (POI) category or a popular brand name by saying something like "Drive to the nearest doctor" or "Drive to the nearest Starbucks."

To select a Recent destination or a Favorite, say "Drive to a recent destination" or "Drive to a Favorite."

Your TomTom device helps you reach your destination as quickly as possible by showing you a faster alternative route when one is available.

To change how you are asked about alternative routes, tap Settings and then Route planning. Tap Next until you reach Replanning settings.

Note: This setting is only available if your device has either a traffic subscription or an RDS-TMC Receiver. Traffic information is not available in all countries or regions. For more information about TomTom traffic information services, go to tomtom.com/services.

Set whether you want your TomTom device to replan the current route if a faster route is found while you are driving. This is useful if traffic builds up or clears, further ahead on your route. Choose from the following settings:

• Always switch to that route - select this option to receive no messages when a faster route is found. The current route is automatically re-calculated to be the fastest one.
• Ask me if I want that route - select this option to be asked if you want to take the new route. When asked if you wish to take the alternative route, tap Yes to have the current route recalculated as the fastest one. Tap No if you don't want to take the alternative route. If you change your mind, tap the balloon at the top of the screen to take the alternative route.
  Tap Info to see a summary of both the original and alternative routes. You can then tap Done to take the fastest route or Current route to remain on your original route.
• Don't ask, just show me - select this option to receive no messages and simply be shown the new route on the screen. You can then tap the balloon if you decide you want to use the alternative route.

About sounds and voices

Your TomTom device uses sound for some or all of the following:

• Driving directions and other route instructions
  ■ Traffic information

Note: To use a TomTom traffic information service, you may need a subscription or a receiver. Traffic services are not supported in all countries or regions. For more information, visit tomtom.com/services.

Voices that speak street names are generated by your TomTom. They provide route instructions and read aloud city and street names, traffic and other useful information.

- Human voices

These are recorded by an actor and only provide route instructions.

About voices that speak street names

Your TomTom uses text-to-speech technology to read the street names on your map as it guides you on your route.

A voice that speaks street names analyzes the whole phrase or sentence before speaking, to ensure that the sentence sounds as close as possible to natural speech.

The traffic sidebar is shown on the right side of the Driving view. The sidebar informs you about traffic delays while you drive, using glowing dots to show you where each traffic incident is located on your route.

The top of the traffic sidebar represents your destination and shows the total time delay due to traffic jams and other incidents on your route.

The central section of the traffic sidebar shows individual traffic incidents in the order they occur on your route.

The bottom of the traffic sidebar represents your current location and shows the distance to the next incident on your route.

To make the traffic sidebar more readable some incidents may not be shown. These incidents will always be of minor importance and only cause short delays.

The color of the pointers, as shown below, gives you an instant indication of the type of incident:

Unknown or undetermined situation.

Slow traffic.

Developing traffic jam.

Stationary traffic or road closure.

Taking the fastest route

Your TomTom device regularly looks for a faster route to your destination. If the traffic situation changes and a faster route is found, your device offers to replan your trip so you can use the faster route.
