Improving
reception
If
your
TomTom
GO
takes longer than 5
minutes
to
find
your
current position, make
sure that the device
is
in
an
open space away
from
tall objects such
as
buildings or trees.
When you connect
your
TomTom
GO
to
your
computer, you can use
TomTom
HOME
to
download information
about
GPS
satellite
positions during the next 7 days. This helps
your
GO
to
find
your
position faster.
Important:
Some vehicles have heat reflective
shielding in the windscreen. This may prevent
your
GO
from
locating
your
current position.
The
TomTom
External Antenna Kit (available
for
purchase
as
an
accessory) can help
to
improve reception.
Windshield
mount
Use the windshield
mount
to
install
your
TomTom
GO inside
your
car.
To attach the mount, press the suction cup
firmly
to
the windshield in
your
car,
in
an
area
of
the windshield where the glass
is
flat.
Make sure that both the
mount
and
your
windshield are clean and
dry
before you attach
the mount. Place the
mount
so that it does not
interfere with
your
view
of
the road.

Before You Start...
Take care
of
your
TomTom
GO
Never leave
your

when you leave the car
or
they
may
become
an
easy target
for
thieves.
You can set a password
for
yourTomTom
GO
which
must
be entered every

It is
important
to
take care
of
your
GO.
• Your
GO
is
not
designed
for
use in extreme
temperatures and any such exposure may
cause permanent damage.
• Do
not
open the casing
of
your
GO
under
any circumstances. Doing so may be
dangerous and will invalidate the warranty.
• Wipe or
dry
the screen
of
your
GO
using a
soft cloth.
Do
not
use any liquid cleaners.
