Mounting your device in your car

Make sure that both the mount and your windscreen are clean and dry before you attach the mount. Place the device so that it does not interfere with your view of the road or of any of the controls in your car.

To attach the mount, press the suction cup firmly against the windscreen on an area where the glass is flat. Then twist the grip on the base of the mount in a clockwise direction until you hear a click.

Plug the cable into your car dashboard and connect the other end to the connector on the back of your device.

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, it may take a short time to start.

Setting up

Important: Take care to select the correct language, since 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 GO navigation 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 interfere with reception.

Micro-SD card slot

Your TomTom GO navigation device includes a micro-SD card slot so you can add extra storage memory to your device. You can use a micro-SD card to store extra maps to use in your device.

The micro-sd card slot is located under a cover on the side of the device.

Charging your device

The battery in your TomTom GO 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 TomTom 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 airplanes.

Take care of your navigation device

Never leave your TomTom GO or accessories on view when you leave the car as they may become an easy target for thieves.

It is important to take care of your device:

Your device is not designed for use in extreme temperatures and any such exposure may cause permanent damage. Extended exposure to sun light may lead to early deterioration in battery performance.

Do not open the casing of your device under any circumstances. Doing so may be dangerous and will invalidate the warranty.

Wipe or dry the screen of your device using a soft cloth. Do not use any liquid cleaners.

3. Safety

Installing the mount

Consider carefully where to attach the mount in your car. The mount 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

Using arrival times

When you plan a route, your TomTom GO asks you if you need to arrive at a particular time.

Tap YES to enter a preferred arrival time.

Your GO 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 GO 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 journey. The status bar shows whether you will arrive on time or if you are going to be late, as shown below:

 

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.

 

 

 

You will arrive 3 minutes before the arrival time you entered.

Planning a route in advance

You can use your TomTom GO 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 journey is going to take before you start.

You can also compare journey times for the same route at different times of the day or on different days of the week. Your GO 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 journey 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 GO.

Prepare route

3.Select the starting point for your journey in the same way that you would select your destination.

4.Set the destination for your journey.

5.Choose the type of route that should be planned.

Fastest route - the route which takes the least time.

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

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 motorways - a route which avoids motorways.

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

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

6.Choose the date and time that you will make the journey you are planning.

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

7.Your TomTom GO plans the route between the two locations you selected.

5. Voice control

About voice control

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

For example, to increase the volume on your GO, you can say, "Increase volume."

To view the list of available commands, tap Help in the Main menu or the Setting menu then tap Product manuals and then tap What can I say?

Important: Voice control requires a computer voice. When there are no computer voices installed on your TomTom GO, this feature is not available.

To select a computer voice, tap Voices in the Settings menu, then tap Change voice and select a computer voice.

Using voice control

To enable voice control and show the button in the Driving view, tap Make your own menu in the Settings menu and select the checkbox for Voice control.

To switch off voice control and remove the button from the Driving view, tap Make your own menu in the Settings menu and clear the checkbox for Voice control.

The following example shows how to use voice control to plan a journey to your Home address.

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

The microphone monitor is shown on the right-hand side of the screen.

2.When you hear the tone, say, "Navigate to Home".

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 recognise individual words and understand everything you say.

A grey bar means your voice is too quiet for the device to recognise individual words and understand everything you say.

For some phrases, your GO repeats what you say and asks for confirmation. 3. If the command is correct, say, "Yes."

15

If the command is incorrect, say, "No" and repeat the command after you hear the tone. Your GO plans a route from your current location to your Home address.

Tip: To stop your GO from listening out for further commands, say "Back" or "Cancel" or "Quit" or simply tap the screen.

Planning a journey using your voice

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

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

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

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

2.When you hear the tone, say, "Navigate to address".

3.Say the name of the town.

Your GO shows a list of towns which sound similar to what you said and tells you which town is at the top of the list.

If the town you hear is the same as the town you requested then say, "Done" or "OK" or "Yes" or "One" or tap the town at the top of the list.

If the town you hear is incorrect, but the correct town is in the list, say the number next to the correct town or tap the name of the town.

For example, if the correct city is Paris and this town is shown at the third item in the list, you can say, "Three" or tap the name, Paris.

If the name is not in the list, then say "Back" or "No" or tap Back to return to the previous screen and say the town again when you hear the tone.

4.Say the streetname.

Your GO shows a list of streetnames which sound similar to what you said and tells you which streetname is at the top of the list.

If the streetname you hear is the same as the streetname you requested then say, "Done" or "OK" or "Yes" or "One" or tap the streetname at the top of the list.

16

Tip: Different locations may have the same name, such as a road that spans multiple postcodes. When this happens you need to look at the screen and tap the correct location.

If the street name you hear is incorrect, but the correct streetname is in the list, say the number next to the correct streetname or tap the streetname in the list.

If the streetname is not shown in the list, say "Back" or "No" or tap Back to return to the previous screen and then say the streetname again when you hear the tone.

5. Say the house number.

Important: Numbers need to been spoken in the same language as the button names and menus on your TomTom GO.

Numbers should be pronounced in the same way you normally say a number, in one continuous sentence. So 357 is pronounced, "Three hundred and fifty seven."

If the number is shown correctly then say, "Done" or "OK" or tap the keyboard to enter the number.

If the number is shown incorrectly then say, "Back" or "No" or tap the Backspace key and repeat the number.

Tip: If you say, "Back" when there are no numbers on the screen, your GO will return you to the previous screen.

When the number is shown correctly say, "Done" or "OK." Alternatively, enter the number by tapping the screen.

6.When the route has been calculated and the route summary is shown, tap Done.

Your TomTom GO starts to guide you to your destination, using spoken instructions and onscreen directions.

Entering addresses using your voice

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

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

To start planning a journey tap Navigate to... in the Main menu, then tap Address.

17

To enter the destination using your voice, tap one of the following buttons:

 

Tap this button to enter an address entirely using speech.
