Device not starting
In rare cases, your TomTom navigation device may not start correctly or may stop responding to
your taps.
First, check that the battery is charged. To charge the battery, connect your device to the car
charger. It can take up to 2 hours to fully charge the battery.
If this does not solve the problem, you can reset the device. To do this, press and hold the On/Off
button until you hear the drum sound and your device restarts. This can take 30 seconds or more.
Charging your device
The battery in your TomTom navigation device charges when you connect it to the car charger or
to your computer.
Important: You should plug the USB connector directly into a USB port on your computer and not
into a USB hub or USB port on a keyboard or monitor.

Safety Notice
Some navigation devices contain a GSM/GPRS module which can interfere with electrical devices
such as cardiac pacemakers, hearing aids and aviation equipment.
Interference with these devices may endanger the health or life of you or others.
If your device includes a GSM/GPRS module, do not use it near unprotected electrical units or in
areas where the use of mobile telephones is prohibited, such as hospitals and aircraft.

It is important to take care of your device:
Do not open the casing of your device under any circumstances. Doing so may be dangerous
