About MyTomTom

MyTomTom helps you manage the contents and services of your TomTom GO 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 TomTom driver, which you need to install on your com-

puter in order to connect your device to MyTomTom. Follow the instructions on the

screen if you are asked questions while downloading.

4. When prompted, connect your device to your computer using the USB cable. Then

switch your device on.

Your device is then recognised, backed up and the latest updates are installed.

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.

Once the TomTom driver is installed, you can access MyTomTom from the notification

area on your desktop.
