Switching on and off
Before you
start
Install your TomTom GO in your car following
the instructions on the installation poster at
the start of this book.
To switch on your TomTom GO, 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 while to start.
You have to answer a few questions to set up
your device.
Having problems?
In rare cases, your TomTom GO 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 TomTom Home charger, the
TomTom Car charger or to your computer. 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 GO begins to restart.

Before you start

Battery notes
The battery in your TomTom GO 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 GO to a computer
using the home dock, you are asked if you
want to connect to the computer. If you select
No and do not tap the screen within three
minutes, the device will automatically switch
off. This happens so that the battery can
charge faster.
Important: 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.
