This User Manual explains everything you need to know about your new TomTom Touch Fitness
Tracker.
What is a fitness tracker exactly?
Your TomTom Touch tracks your activities AND your body composition. Body composition is a great
indicator of your fitness. When people exercise, what they usually want is to reduce their body fat %
and increase their muscle %. With your TomTom Touch, you track what you’re made of, not just
your steps.
What are the key features?
Your TomTom Touch has a touchscreen and can track steps, calories, active time, distance, sleep,
heart rate and body composition.
Tip: Though this product is a TomTom product, it has no GPS so it doesn't do navigation. If you
are looking for a product that records your running and cycling routes on the map, and has
precise speed, pace and distance calculations, try a TomTom GPS Sports Watch.
Here are some good starting points in this User Manual:
Quick Start
About your Fitness Tracker
Wearing your Fitness Tracker

Your Fitness Tracker and water
Tip: There are also frequently asked questions (FAQs) at tomtom.com/support. Select TomTom

We hope you enjoy reading about and, most importantly, having fun while getting fitter using your
new TomTom Touch!

Wearing your Fitness Tracker
The way you wear your TomTom Touch is important because it can affect the performance of the
Heart Rate Sensor and your composition results. For more information on how this sensor works, see
The heart rate sensor.
If you experience issues with getting an accurate heart rate reading or taking a body compostion
measurement, make sure your TomTom Touch is worn as follows:
Done up tightly but not so tight that it is uncomfortable.
Placed above the wrist bone.
You get the most accurate results from the heart rate sensor when you are warmed up.
Important: To improve accuracy, KEEP STILL until your heart rate is detected.
Cleaning your Fitness Tracker
It is recommended that you clean your TomTom Touch once a week if you use it frequently.
Wipe the TomTom Touch with a damp cloth as needed. Use mild soap to remove oil or dirt.
Do not expose your TomTom Touch to strong chemicals such as gasoline, cleaning solvents,
acetone, alcohol, or insect repellents. Chemicals can damage the seal, case, and finish.
Clean the heart rate sensor area and connection pads with mild soap and water as needed.
Do not scratch the heart rate sensor area. Protect it from damage.
The heart rate sensor
Your TomTom Touch has a built-in heart rate sensor to help you train more efficiently.

7
How the sensor works
Your heartbeat is measured by using light to measure changes in your blood flow. This is done on
the top of your wrist by shining light through the skin onto the capillaries just below the skin and
detecting the changing light reflections.
The performance of the heart rate sensor is not affected by your body fat percentage or body hair.
It IS however affected by the position of the TomTom Touch on your wrist, your skin colour, skin
type and by whether you have warmed up or not.
Using the heart rate sensor
To get the best performance from the heart rate sensor, see Wearing your Fitness Tracker.
Continuous heart rate tracking is switched ON by default.
