Calling a POI

Note: Hands-free calling is not supported on all devices.
Many of the POIs on your Blue&Me TomTom 2 include phone numbers. This means that if your device
supports hands-free calling, you can use your Blue&Me TomTom 2 to call the POI and plan a route to
the location of the POI. If your device doesn't support hands-free calling, you can still get the phone
number of POI from your TomTom navigation device and then call the POI using another phone or
device.
For example, you can search for a movie theater, call to reserve a ticket and plan a route to the movie
theater, and all using your Blue&Me TomTom 2.
1. Tap the phone button in the Driving view.
If the button is not visible in the Driving view, tap Make your own menu in the Settings menu and
select Call... to display the button in the Driving view.
2. Tap Point of Interest.
3. Select how you want to search for the POI.
For example, if you want to search for a POI on your route, tap POI along route.
4. Tap the type of POI you want to call.
For example, if you want to call a cinema to reserve a ticket, tap Cinema and then select the name
of the cinema you want to call. Then tap Call or Dial to make the phone call.
Your Blue&Me TomTom 2 uses your mobile phone to call the POI.

Setting warnings for POIs

You can set a warning sound or message to be played or displayed when you approach a selected
type of POI, such as a gas station.
The following example will show how to set a warning sound to be played when you are 250 yards
from a gas station.
1. Tap Manage POIs or Warn when near POI in the settings menu.
2. Scroll down the list and tap Gas station.
Tip: To remove a warning, tap on the category name and then tap Yes. POI categories which
have been set with a warning have a sound symbol next to the category name.
3. Set the distance as 500 feet and tap OK.
4. Select Sound effect and then tap Next.
5. Select the warning sound for the POI and then tap Next.
6. If you only want to hear the warning when the POI is directly on a planned route, select Warn only
if POI is on route. Then tap Done.
The warning is set for the selected POI category. You will hear a warning sound when you are 500
feet from a petrol station on your route.
