Speed Camera warnings
There are several types of speed camera. When you are approaching a camera and until you have
passed the camera, the type of camera and the distance to the camera are shown, and you hear a
warning sound. The background colour turns orange or red if you are driving faster than the speed
limit permitted at the camera.
Tip: You can choose to view either the map view, the road view or the overlay mode.
The warning sound depends on your speed:
 Low pitch sound - you are driving below or at the speed limit.
 High pitch sound - you are driving more than the speed limit.
The warning bar shows the camera symbol and camera type, and the distance to the camera.
The colour of the warning bar and the speed panel also depend on your speed:
 Grey shows you are driving below or at the speed limit.
 Orange shows you are driving up to 5 kmh or 5 mph above the speed limit.
 Red shows you are driving more than 5 kmh or 5 mph above the speed limit.
Note: The warning for each camera type depends on the camera warnings you have chosen in the
Settings menu. For example, if you have selected When speeding, you will not be warned about
a camera if you are driving below or at the speed limit.
In the Settings menu, you can choose which types of cameras you want to be warned about and the
warning time before you reach a camera.
When you have passed a reported mobile camera, you are asked to tell TomTom about the status of
the camera.
If you pass a speed camera and do not receive a warning you can report it to TomTom.
