Common Questions
What is the passkey I'm asked to enter when creating a partnership between my device and the Bluetooth® GPS receiver?
Like a password, the passkey is a security measure. Connections can happen only between your Treo™ device and a Bluetooth device that has the same passkey.
The passkey for the receiver is noted on the bottom of the receiver. You should need to enter the passkey only the first time you establish a Bluetooth connection between your Treo device and the receiver.
Should I keep my device and the receiver connected to the vehicle power adapter while they are in use?
If your device is fully charged, it can run for about four to five hours in the car. For longer trips, it is a good idea to keep the vehicle power adapter connected to keep both your device and the receiver charged. This prevents the batteries from getting too low for the Bluetooth connection to function.
Where can I get customer support if I need it?
See the TomTom Quick Start Guide included in this package for detailed information about NAVIGATOR 5 features. If you still need help, refer to the support section of the TomTom website at www.tomtom.com/support/.
If you have problems with the Bluetooth GPS receiver hardware, refer to the Holux website at www.holux.com.
Safety Information
Please read the following information to ensure safe use of the GPS Navigator.
Global Positioning System
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a satellite-based system that provides location and timing information around the globe. GPS is operated and controlled under the sole responsibility of the Government of the United States of America, which is responsible for its availability and accuracy. Any changes in GPS availability and accuracy may impact the operation of your GPS receiver. Environmental conditions will affect the operation of your GPS receiver. TomTom B.V. and Palm cannot accept any liability for the availability and accuracy of GPS.
Use With Care
Use of a GPS receiver for navigation does not by any means substitute for the need to drive with due care and attention.
WARNING!
Do not mount the GPS Navigator where the driver's field of vision is obscured or where airbags may deploy, and do not place it on the dashboard without securing it reliably. Do not mount the unit or route the cables in such a way as to interfere with control of the vehicle. Failure to follow these guidelines could result in an accident or collision resulting in serious injury or death.
Drive safely using information from street signs and landmarks in addition to the GPS Navigator. Do not become distracted by the GPS Navigator while operating the vehicle. Use voice prompts to minimize the need to look at the display. Do not input destinations or access other functions that take time to complete unless the
vehicle is safely stopped. Make all settings before departing or pull off the road in a safe and legal manner if changes need to be made.
CAUTION
Use GPS Navigator only as an aid to navigation. It is not designed for any use requiring precise measurements. The Global Positioning System (GPS) is operated by the government of the United States of America and is subject to changes which could affect the accuracy and performance of this GPS equipment.
NOTICE TO DRIVERS
When using this product you must obey your local vehicle codes. Some vehicle codes restrict any object or material from being placed, displayed, installed, affixed, or applied upon the windshield or side or rear windows. Where such codes exist, when using this product, the suction cup mount pad should be used instead of attaching the mount directly to the vehicle windshield or side or rear windows. Palm is not responsible for any damages, fines, or penalties that may result from disregarding this notice.
Aircraft and Hospitals
Use of devices with an antenna is prohibited on most aircraft, in many hospitals, and in many other locations. The GPS receiver must not be used in these environments.
Heat-Reflective Shields
Some newer-model vehicles may have a heat-reflective shield embedded in the windshield, which may prevent proper GPS signal reception if the receiver is placed behind the windshield. To enable proper reception:
- Place the receiver in a different position, or
- Place the receiver behind the rearview mirror, where many vehicles have an opening in the heat reflective shield, as indicated by a black outline.

Static Electricity, ESD, and your Palm® device
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause damage to electronic devices if discharged into the device, so you should take steps to avoid such an occurrence.
Description of ESD
Static electricity is an electrical charge caused by the buildup of excess electrons on the surface of a material. To most people, static electricity and ESD are nothing more than annoyance. For example, after walking over a carpet while scuffing your feet, building up electrons on your body, you may get a shock -- the discharge event -- when you touch a metal doorknob. This little shock discharges the built-up static electricity.
ESD-susceptible equipment
Even a small amount of ESD can harm circuitry, so when working with electronic devices, take measures to help protect your electronic devices, including your Palm™ device, from ESD harm. While Palm has built protections against ESD into its products, ESD unfortunately exists and, unless neutralized, could build up to levels that could harm your equipment. Any electronic device that contains an external entry point for plugging in anything from cables to docking stations is susceptible to entry of ESD. Devices that you carry with you, such as your device, build up ESD in a unique way because the static electricity that may have built up on your body is automatically passed to the device. Then, when the device is connected to another device such as a docking station, a discharge event can occur.
Precautions against ESD
Make sure to discharge any built-up static electricity from yourself and your electronic devices before touching an electronic device or connecting one device to another. The recommendation from Palm is that you take this precaution before connecting your device to your computer, placing the device in a cradle, or connecting it to any other device. You can do this in many ways, including the following:
- Ground yourself when you're holding your mobile device by simultaneously touching a metal surface that is at earth ground.
- For example, if your computer has a metal case and is plugged into a standard three-prong grounded outlet, touching the case should discharge the ESD on your body.
- Increase the relative humidity of your environment.
- Install ESD-specific prevention items, such as grounding mats.
Conditions that enhance ESD occurrences
Conditions that can contribute to the buildup of static electricity in the environment include the following:
- Low relative humidity.
- Material type (The type of material gathering the charge. For example, synthetics are more prone to static buildup than natural fibers like cotton.)
- The rapidity with which you touch, connect or disconnect electronic devices.
While you should always take appropriate precautions to discharge static electricity, if you are in an environment where you notice ESD events you may want to take extra precautions to protect your electronic equipment against ESD.
