Safety Notice

Some navigation devices contain a GSM/GPRS module which can interfere with electrical devices
such as cardiac pacemakers, hearing aids and aviation equipment.

If your device includes a GSM/GPRS module, do not use it near unprotected electrical units or in
areas where the use of mobile telephones is prohibited, such as hospitals and aircraft.

When you first switch on your device, you have to answer a few questions to set up the device.
Answer the questions by touching the screen.

GPS reception

When you first start your TomTom GO navigation device, the device may need a few minutes to
determine your position. In future, your position will be found much faster.
To ensure good satellite reception, use your device outdoors and keep it upright. Large objects
such as tall buildings can sometimes interfere with reception.
Important: QuickGPSfix contains information about satellite positions which helps your navigation
device find your position faster. QuickGPSfix information is sent to Always Connected devices in
real time and to Smartphone Connected devices when connected to TomTom services using your
smartphone. You can also update QuickGPSfix using MyDrive.
