The Windshield Mount should not block or interfere in any way with the following: • Your view of the road • Any of the controls in your car • Any of your mirrors • The airbag You should be able to reach your GO easily when it is in the Windshield Mount without leaning or stretching. The diagrams show where you can safely attach the Windshield Mount.
Safety preferences We recommend using the safety preferences to make your driving as safe as possible. The safety preferences include, for example, the following options: • Hide most menu options when driving • Show safety reminders • Warn when driving faster than allowed You can also drive more safely by using voice commands to control your TomTom GO.
4. Making your first journey Making your first journey Planning a route with your TomTom GO navigation device is easy. To plan a route, follow the steps below. Important: For safety reasons, you should always plan a route before you start your journey. 1. Tap the screen to bring up the Main Menu. Note: The buttons on your navigation device are shown in full color unless a button is currently unavailable.
• Cross street or intersection - tap this button to set your destination as the point where two streets meet. • Spoken address - tap this button to set your destination by saying the address to your navigation device. In this example, we will enter an exact address. 4. Tap Street and house number. Note: When planning a trip for the first time your navigation device asks you to choose a state or country. Your choice is saved and used for all routes you plan.
8. Your navigation device asks if you need to arrive at a particular time. For this exercise, tap NO. The route is calculated by your device using IQ RoutesTM. IQ Routes is used to plan the best possible route taking into account the real average speeds measured on the roads. 9. When the route has been calculated, tap Done. Your TomTom GO navigation device will warn you about any traffic delays and immediately begin to guide you to your destination, using both spoken instructions and on-screen directions.
Other navigation options When you tap Navigate to..., you can set your destination in many ways, not just by entering the address. The other options are listed below: Tap this button to use TomTom Local Search with Google search to help you find shops and businesses in and around your current location. Local search You can choose to search for stores and businesses near you, near your destination, near any other destination or in a city.
Tap this button to select your last recorded position, as your destination. Position of last stop Planning a route in advance You can use your GO to plan a route in advance, selecting your starting point and your destination. Here are some more reasons to plan a route in advance: • Find out how long a trip is going to take before you start. You can also compare trip times for the same route at different times of the day or on different days of the week. Your TomTom GO uses IQ Routes when planning a route.
7. Your TomTom GO plans the route between the two locations you selected. More information about a route You can access these options for the route you last planned by tapping View route in the Main Menu or the Details button on the route summary screen. You can then select from the following options: Tap this button for a list of all the turn instructions on the route. This is very useful if you need to explain a route to someone else. Browse as text Tap this button to see each turn in the trip.
5. Voice recognition Voice recognition Instead of tapping the screen to control your TomTom GO, you can now give instructions to your GO using your voice. For example, to increase the volume on your GO, you can say, "Increase volume." Important: To use voice recognition, you must have a computer voice installed on your TomTom GO. If you don’t have a computer voice installed, use TomTom HOME to install one.
A red bar means your voice is too loud. A grey bar means your voice is too quiet. For some phrases, your GO will always repeat the command and then ask you if the command has been correctly recognized. 3. If the command is correct, say, "Yes." If the command is incorrect, say, "No" and when prompted, say the command again after the beep . Your GO plans a route from your current position to your Home address. Tips • Voice recognition switches off after a few seconds if you don’t say anything.
You can now enter an address using speech. Alternatively, you can tap the screen to start planning a trip, then tap Spoken address (dialog) or Spoken address to start entering an address by voice. 3. Say the city name. When you say the city name, you are then shown a list of six names that match what you said. Your GO tells you the name at the top of the list. If the name you hear is correct, then say, "Done" or "OK" or "Yes" or "One" or tap on the name.
Numbers should be pronounced normally. For example, you would say the number 357 as one continuous sentence, "Three hundred and fifty seven." If the number is shown incorrectly, say, "Back" or "No" or tap the Backspace key. Then say the number again. Tip: If you say, "Back" when there are no numbers shown on the screen, then your GO will return you to the previous screen. When the number is shown correctly say, "Done" or "OK." Alternatively, enter the number by tapping the screen.
You can use speech to enter destinations wherever you see this button. You can use speech to enter these types of destination: • City center - to say the center of a city or town, tap the speech button at the bottom of the keyboard. • Street and house number - to say an address, tap the speech button at the bottom of the keyboard. • Crossing or intersection - to say the point where two streets meet, tap the speech button at the bottom of the keyboard.

To turn the images off, tap Hide lane images in the Preferences menu.
8. Finding alternative routes Finding alternative routes Once you have planned a route, you may want to change something about the route, without changing your destination. Why change the route? Maybe for one of these reasons: • You can see a roadblock or a line of traffic ahead. • You want to travel via a particular location, to pick someone up, stop for lunch or fill up with gas. • You want to avoid a difficult intersection or a road you don’t like.
