Installing in your car
Use the supplied mount to install your TomTom PRO in your vehicle. Read the instructions about
positioning your device before you install your PRO.
To install your PRO, do the following:
1. Connect the supplied USB cable to the mount. If the mount is integrated into your PRO,
connect the USB cable to the device.
Note: Use ONLY the USB cable supplied with your PRO. Other USB cables may not work.
2. Connect the USB cable to the USB car charger and plug this into the power supply on your
dashboard.
3. Choose the best smooth location, on your windshield or side window, to mount your
TomTom PRO.
Tip: If the mount is integrated into your PRO, you can easily change the rotation of your
device. Push the button on the back of the device to release the mount, then slide the mount
out. Insert it back into the other side of the device.
4. Make sure that both the suction cup on the mount and your windshield are clean and dry.
5. Press the suction cup of the mount firmly against your windshield.
6. Turn the rubber grip near the base of the mount in a clockwise direction until you feel it lock.
7. If your mount is not integrated into your PRO, place your PRO in the mount, making sure that
it clicks into place.
Dashboard adhesive disks are available as part of a range of accessories for your PRO. For more
information, go to tomtom.com/accessories.
Positioning the device
Be careful where you install your PRO. The PRO shouldn't block or interfere with any of the
following:
Your view of the road.
The controls in your vehicle.
Your rearview mirrors.
The airbags.
You should be able to reach your PRO easily without leaning or stretching. In a car, you can attach
your PRO to the windshield or side window or you can use a Dashboard Mount Disk to attach the
mount to your dashboard.
