Doing so may be dangerous and will invalidate your warranty. · Do not use the memory card (SD card) with any device other than a TomTom device. Other devices may damage the memory card. · Do not expose your TomTom to high or low temperatures, which can cause permanent damage. For example, don't leave it in the car on hot summer days or during cold winter nights. 5 3. Getting started Getting started Switching on Follow the instructions at the start of this manual to dock your TomTom in your car stereo. Your TomTom can also be used without docking it in your car stereo. A mount is available as an accessory so that you can use your TomTom in other cars.

Setting up You have to answer a few questions to set up your TomTom. Answer the questions by tapping the screen. You will use the touchscreen for everything you do with your TomTom. You can change these settings at any time using the Preferences menu. For information about the Preferences menu, see Preferences on page 38. Once you have answered the questions, your TomTom will display the Driving View. The Driving View is shown in black and white until your TomTom locates your current position. For more information about the Driving View, see Driving View on page 14. Locating your current position Your TomTom must be outdoors to locate your current position. The first time you start your TomTom, it can take up to 5 minutes to find your current position. If it takes longer than 5 minutes, make sure that you are in an open place without tall buildings or trees around you. In the future, your position will be found much faster, normally within a few seconds. Once your TomTom has located your current position, the Driving View is shown in full colour and shows your position on the map. Night view When you switch on the headlights in your car, your TomTom will switch to night view. In night view, the brightness of the screen on your TomTom is dimmed so it's easier to see when it's dark outside. Night view on your TomTom is linked to the dimmer setting on your car stereo. See the manual for your car stereo for information about the dimmer setting. 6 To manually control the brightness of the screen, select not to link the night view to the dimmer setting in the Docking preferences in the Preferences menu. To switch to night view manually, tap Use night colours in the Preferences menu. 7 4. Making your first journey Making your first journey Planning a route with TomTom is very simple.
