Calling a POI
Many of the POIs on your TomTom GO LIVE include phone numbers. This means that if your device
supports hands-free calling, you can use your GO LIVE 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 GO LIVE.
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.
5. Your GO LIVE 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.

3. Set the distance as 250 yards and tap OK.
4. Select Sound effect and then tap Next.
5. Select the warning sound for the POI and then tap Next.
