To attach the Windshield Mount, press the suction cup firmly against the

windshield on an area where the glass is flat. Then twist the rubber grip near

the base of the Windshield Mount in a clockwise direction until you hear a

click.

Home Dock

The home dock is used for charging your TomTom GO when it is not in the car

and for connecting your GO to your computer.

When connected to your computer, you can use TomTom HOME to manage

your GO.

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 reception of a strong GPS signal, you should use your device

outdoors. Large objects such as tall buildings can sometimes interfere with

reception.

Important

: Some vehicles have heat reflective shielding in the windshield

which may prevent your navigation device from locating your position.

The TomTom External Antenna Kit (available for purchase as an accessory)

can help to improve reception.

Safety Notice

Your TomTom GO contains 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 others.

Do not use near unprotected electrical units nor in areas where the use of

mobile telephones is prohibited, such as hospitals and airplanes.

Take care of your device

Never leave your TomTom GO navigation device or accessories on view when

you leave the car or 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.

• 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.
