Before you start

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.

To set up your device you need to answer a few questions by tapping the

screen.

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 fifteen seconds and release the button when

your device begins to restart.

Battery notes

The battery in your TomTom GO navigation device charges when you connect

it to the car charger or to your computer.

The light next to the On/Off button is orange while the battery is charging and

is green when the battery is fully charged.

When you connect your device to a computer, 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 directly into a USB port on your

computer and not into a USB hub or USB port on a keyboard or monitor.

Windshield Mount

Use the Windshield Mount to install your TomTom GO inside your car.

Make sure that both the Windshield Mount and your windshield are clean and

dry before you attach the mount. Place the Windshield Mount so that it does

not interfere with your view of the road or of any of the controls in your car.
