Getting started Switching on and off Install your TomTom GO navigation device in your car following the instructions in the installation section at the start of this book. 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, it may take a short time to start. Setting up 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. You are asked whether you make regular trips to the same locations. If you tap YES, you can enter these destinations as your favourite destinations. Every time you switch on your device, you can immediately select one of these locations as your desti- nation. To change these destinations or select a new destination, tap Start-up preferences in the Preferences menu, then select Ask for a destination. Device not starting In rare cases, your TomTom GO navigation device may not start correctly or may stop responding to your taps. First, check that the battery is properly 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 for 15 seconds and release the button when your device begins to restart. Treviso-UG-LIVE.book Page 7 Wednesday, September 2, 2009 8:31 AMGetting started

Battery notes The battery in your TomTom GO navigation device charges when you connect it to the car charger or to your computer. When you connect your device to a compu- ter, you are asked if you want to connect to the computer. If you select No and then do not tap the screen within three minutes, the device will automatically switch off. This happens so that the battery can charge faster. Note: You should plug the USB connector di- rectly into a USB port on your computer and not into a USB hub or USB port on a keyboard or monitor. GPS reception When you first start your TomTom GO nav- igation device, the device may need a few minutes to determine your GPS position and show your current position on the map. In future, your position will be found much faster, usually within a few seconds. To ensure good GPS reception, you should use your device outdoors. Large objects such as tall buildings can sometimes inter- fere with reception. The TomTom GO 950 includes Enhanced Positioning Technology or EPT. EPT auto- matically estimates your position when the GPS signal is lost while you are driving, such as when you are in a tunnel. When EPT is in use, the EPT symbol is shown in the Driving View.
