When your GO is up-to-date, you can use a memory card as extra storage space to store downloaded
maps or to store routes and tracks on your device.
Important: Routes and tracks cannot be stored on the same memory card as maps because different
memory card formatting is used.

Device not starting

In rare cases, your TomTom GO may not start correctly or may stop responding to your taps.
First, check that the battery is charged. To charge the battery, connect your GO to the car charger. It
can take 3 - 5 hours to fully charge the battery, depending on the type of device.
Important: Do not charge your device using your vehicle's own USB port because it is not powerful
enough.
If this does not solve the problem, you can perform a reset. To do this, press and hold the On/Off
button until your GO begins to restart.

Charging your device

The battery in your TomTom GO charges when you connect it to your TomTom vehicle charger, to
your computer, or to a USB Home Charger.
Important: Do not charge your device using your vehicle's own USB port because it is not powerful
enough.
You are warned when the battery level is low or critical. You lose your connection to some TomTom
services when the battery level is low or critical. When the battery is empty, your GO goes into sleep
mode.
Important: On device models START 42/52, START 40/50/60, and GO 51/61, the screen intentionally
dims when you connect your device to your computer. The screen also dims if you use a non-TomTom
