Installing in your car

Use the mount provided with your device to install your TomTom GO device in your vehicle. Read
the instructions about positioning your device before you install your device.
To install your device, do the following:
1. Connect the supplied USB cable to the mount. If the mount is integrated into your device,
connect the USB cable to the device.
Note: Use ONLY the USB cable supplied with your device. Other USB cables may not work.
2. Connect the USB cable to the USB car charger and plug this into the power supply on your
dashboard.
3. Choose the best smooth location, on your windscreen or side window, to mount your
TomTom GO device.
4. Make sure that both the suction cup on the mount and your windscreen are clean and dry.
5. Press the suction cup of the mount firmly against your windscreen.
6. Turn the rubber grip near the base of the mount in a clockwise direction until you feel it lock.
7. If your mount is not integrated into your device, place your device in the mount, making sure
that it clicks into place.
Dashboard mount disks are available as part of a range of accessories for your device. For more
