Welcome
Before the installation
With the TomTom ecoPLUSTM you can retrieve fuel consumption data over the OBD-II connector in
your vehicle and see this in WEBFLEET in real time. TomTom ecoPLUS works together with the
TomTom LINK 5xx/4xx/3xx via Bluetooth and therefore requires minimal installation effort. This
document shows how to set up your ecoPLUS.
If you need to use your vehicle’s OBD-II connector for something else, for example, for maintenance purposes, simply remove your ecoPLUS from the connector and reconnect it afterwards.
Important: To remove the ecoPLUS from the OBD-II connector, pull on the ecoPLUS plug and not
the device itself as this may cause damage.

There are two steps to setting up your ecoPLUS:
Installing your ecoPLUS
1. Configure a Bluetooth connection between your ecoPLUS and your LINK.
There are two ways to establish a Bluetooth connection between your ecoPLUS and your
LINK:
By configuring a Bluetooth connection with WEBFLEET
By configuring a Bluetooth connection with the Activation Tool
Make sure you have properly noted and entered the Bluetooth address of your ecoPLUS,
which you can find on the label on the OBD-II plug.
2. Install your ecoPLUS in your vehicle.
Important: If the ecoPLUS has been used in another vehicle before, you need to reset the device
first, otherwise the installation of the ecoPLUS may cause errors in the vehicle communication or
engine warnings to be shown in the vehicle dashboard.
Configuring a Bluetooth connection with WEBFLEET
This section describes how to pair your ecoPLUS with the LINK installed in your vehicle using
WEBFLEET. You can also configure a Bluetooth connection using the activation tool instead.
Note: Make sure your vehicle is properly fitted with a LINK according to the requirements for
the installation.

12. Carry out the steps described above for each additional ecoPLUS and LINK.
Installing ecoPLUS in your vehicle
This section describes how to connect your ecoPLUS to the vehicle and to the LINK.
1. Find the OBD-II connector in your vehicle.
You can find the OBD-II connector in the footwell area of the driver. If you are not sure where
to find it refer to the service manual of your vehicle or contact your car dealer.
2. Insert the OBD-II plug of your ecoPLUS into the OBD-II connector of your vehicle. Make sure
the plug is fully inserted so it cannot drop off.
The green Power LED starts flashing.
3. Optionally, you can slide off the ecoPLUS from the plug to place it aside, if the available space
does not allow for an assembled installation.
Important! Affix the loose ecoPLUS so that it cannot drop off and fall into the footwell area or
get damaged. Make sure the power and the Bluetooth LED stay visible for diagnostics purposes.
4. Turn on the engine.
The LINK tries to establish a connection to your ecoPLUS. This may take up to two minutes. If
successful both LEDs should be solid.
You have now completed the installation of the ecoPLUS and successfully established a Bluetooth
connection between your ecoPLUS and the LINK.

The ecoPLUS automatically learns from the vehicle and the engine during operation. Therefore,
the vehicle needs to be moved around for some time so the ecoPLUS can be calibrated.
