Battery notes
We recommend that you fully charge your
TomTom GO the first time that you connect it
to the home dock. It takes up to 2hours to
charge the battery completely.
When
you place your GO in the Home Dock,
you are asked if you wish to connect to the
computer.
If you select No, the device will
switch off if you do not tap the screen for three
minutes. This happens so that the battery
can
recharge at afaster rate.
For
information on connecting to acomputer,
refer
to the installation poster.
Note: Your TomTom GO uses a small amount of
battery power to remember the last screen being
shown when the device is switched off.
If you do not charge your GO for a prolonged period
of time, the next time you start your GO it will show
the default starting screen. All other device settings
will still be maintained.

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 7days. 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 itdoes not
interfere with your view of the road.
