This User Manual explains all you need to know about your new TomTom GO COMFORT.

To learn about getting started with your device and installing it in your vehicle, we recommend that

you read the Get going chapter.

After that, you will probably want to connect to TomTom services and you can read all about that in

the TomTom services chapter. To help you avoid traffic delays and get to your destination quicker,

you can use TomTom services even on the routes you drive every day.

Once you've had a look around your new TomTom GO COMFORT, set up a Wi-Fi® connection and see

if any new updates are available to install. We're always improving our maps and software, so check

regularly for updates.

In Quick Search and Step-by-step search you can read all about how you can search for addresses,

Points of Interest, and Contacts. Both types of search give the same result, so choose the type of

search that you find easiest to use.

For information about what you see on the device itself, go to What's on the screen.

To plan your first route, go to Planning a route.

Tip: There are also frequently asked questions (FAQs) at tomtom.com/support. Select your

product model from the list or enter a search term.

We hope you enjoy reading about and, most importantly, using your new TomTom GO COMFORT!

Welcome to navigation with TomTom

TomTom offers a Danger Zone service instead, and in Switzerland, no safety camera services are

permitted at all. In Germany, you are responsible for switching the Safety Cameras service on or

off. The issue of the legality of using safety camera services in Germany and other EU countries is

not unique. You therefore use this service at your own risk. TomTom accepts no liability arising

from the use of this service.

Installing in your car

Use the supplied mount to install your TomTom GO COMFORT in your vehicle. Read the instructions

about positioning your device before you install your TomTom GO COMFORT.

To install your TomTom GO COMFORT, do the following:

1. Connect the supplied USB cable to the mount. If the mount is integrated into your TomTom GO

COMFORT, connect the USB cable to the device.

Note: Use ONLY the USB cable supplied with your TomTom GO COMFORT. 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

GO COMFORT.

Tip: If the mount is integrated into your TomTom GO COMFORT, you can easily change the

rotation of your device. Release the mount from the TomTom GO COMFORT using the thumb

indent. Turn the mount around and clip it back onto the device until you hear it click.

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 TomTom GO COMFORT, place your TomTom GO

COMFORT in the mount, making sure that it clicks into place.

Dashboard adhesive disks are available as part of a range of accessories for your TomTom GO

COMFORT. For more information, go to tomtom.com/accessories.

Positioning your TomTom GO COMFORT

Be careful where you install your TomTom GO COMFORT. The TomTom GO COMFORT 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 TomTom GO COMFORT easily without leaning or stretching. In a

car, you can attach your TomTom GO COMFORT to the windshield or side window or you can use a

Dashboard Mount Disk to attach the mount to your dashboard.

Turning on and off

Turning your device on

Press the On/Off button until your device starts. If the device was off you see the map view. If your

device was sleeping you see the last screen you were looking at.

Get going

10

Putting your device to sleep

To put your navigation device to sleep, press the On/Off button and then release it.

You can also press the On/Off button for more than 2 seconds until you see the Sleep and Turn Off

buttons. Select Sleep to make the device sleep.

Tip: To send your navigation device to sleep when the USB cable is unplugged or whenever it is

removed from the mount, go to Battery settings in the Settings menu.

Turning your device off completely

To turn off your navigation device completely, you can do one of the following:

 Press and hold the On/Off button for more than 2 seconds until you see the Sleep and Turn Off

buttons. Select Turn Off to turn off the device. Select the "back" button if you don't want to

turn your device off.

 Press and hold the On/Off button for more than 5 seconds until the device turns off.

Setting up

Note: The language you choose will be used for all text on the screen. You can always change the

language later in Language and Units in the Settings menu.

When you first switch on your TomTom GO COMFORT, you have to answer a few questions to set it

up. Answer the questions by touching the screen.

GPS reception

When you first start your TomTom GO COMFORT, it may need a few minutes to determine your

position. In the future, your position will be found much faster.

To ensure good satellite reception, use your TomTom GO COMFORT outdoors and keep it upright.

Large objects such as tall buildings can sometimes interfere with reception.

Important: QuickGPSfix contains information about satellite positions which helps your TomTom GO

COMFORT find your position faster. QuickGPSfix information is downloaded whenever your device is

connected to the internet using any method (Wi-Fi, GPRS, smartphone, or USB).

Sending information to TomTom

When you first start navigating or you have reset your TomTom GO COMFORT, your TomTom GO

COMFORT asks for permission to collect some information about your use of the navigation device.

The information is stored on your TomTom GO COMFORT until we retrieve it. We use it anonymously

to improve our products and services. If you use our services, we will also use your location

information to deliver the services to you.

You can change whether you send this information to us at any time by doing the following:

1. In the Main Menu, select the Settings button.

2. Select System.

3. Select Your Information & Privacy.

4. Select the button to turn sending of information on or off.

Note: If you choose not to send location information to us, you will no longer receive our

services. This is because services need to send the location of your device to TomTom in order to

receive the traffic information related to where you are. The end date of your subscription

remains the same, even if you do not send this information to us.

You can find current and more detailed information at tomtom.com/privacy.

11

Memory card slot

Some TomTom navigation devices have a memory card slot that is located on the side or bottom of

the device.

Before you use the memory card slot, make sure that your navigation device has the latest software

version installed by selecting Updates & New Items in the Settings menu.

When your TomTom GO COMFORT is up-to-date, you can use a memory card as extra storage space

to store downloaded maps or to store routes and tracks on your device.

Important: Routes and tracks cannot be stored on the same memory card as maps because different

memory card formatting is used.

Device not starting

In rare cases, your TomTom GO COMFORT 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 TomTom GO COMFORT

device to the car charger. It can take 3 - 5 hours to fully charge the battery, depending on the type

of device.

Important: Do not charge your device using your vehicle's own USB port because it is not powerful

enough.

If this does not solve the problem, you can perform a reset. To do this, press and hold the On/Off

button until your TomTom GO COMFORT begins to restart.

Charging your device

The battery in your TomTom GO COMFORT charges when you connect it to your TomTom vehicle

charger, to your computer, or to a USB Home Charger.

Important: Do not charge your device using your vehicle's own USB port because it is not powerful

enough.

You are warned when the battery level is low or critical. You lose your connection to some TomTom

services when the battery level is low or critical. When the battery is empty, your TomTom GO

COMFORT goes into sleep mode.

Important: On device models TomTom START 42/52, TomTom START 40/50/60, and TomTom GO

51/61, the screen intentionally dims when you connect your device to your computer. The screen

also dims if you use a non-TomTom charger that does not provide enough power when charging.

Note: Use ONLY the USB cable supplied with your TomTom GO COMFORT when charging your

device. Other USB cables may not work.

Caring for your TomTom GO COMFORT

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 and

will void the warranty.

 Wipe or dry the screen of your device using a soft cloth. Do not use any liquid cleaners.

Please check the user guide for your phone if you are having trouble finding the settings.

For more help, go to tomtom.com/connect.

About Wi-Fi®

The easiest way to manage your maps, software, and all your device content is over a Wi-Fi

connection.

Your device can be updated using Wi-Fi without the need to connect to a computer. It remembers

previously connected Wi-Fi networks so you can keep your device up-to-date when you are in range

of that network.

Before you begin, make sure that you have access to an unrestricted Wi-Fi network, such as a

personal home network. Please be aware that updating over a public Wi-Fi network, such as in an

airport or hotel, is not recommended because the updates can be large and the network connection

may not be stable.

Tip: If you don’t have access to a Wi-Fi network or your Wi-Fi network is slow or not stable, you

can use a USB connection to update using TomTom MyDrive Connect on your computer.

Connecting to Wi-Fi

Important: Wi-Fi connections that require a web sign-in are not supported on the TomTom GO

COMFORT. These types of Wi-Fi connections are frequently found in public places, for example in

hotels, shops, and restaurants.

To connect to a Wi-Fi network, do the following:

1. Select Settings in the Main Menu, then select Wi-Fi.

You see a list of available Wi-Fi networks and saved Wi-Fi networks that are currently out of

range.

Tip: Scroll down to go to the list of out-of-range saved networks.

2. Select the Wi-Fi network that you want to connect to. If the network is secure, enter the

password. If no password is required, you are connected right away.

Tip: For advanced options for a Wi-Fi network, see Wi-Fi in the Settings menu.

3. Select Done, then select Connect.

It may take a few moments for your device to connect to the Wi-Fi network. If it takes too long,

please check the identity and password you used for the Wi-Fi network.

Once your device has successfully connected to the Wi-Fi network, you see the status Connected

under the Wi-Fi network name.

Tip: To access settings and the status of your services quickly, select the menu bar at the top

of the main menu. In portrait mode, you can also tap the icons down the right hand side.

Wi-Fi connection

18

Forgetting a Wi-Fi network

To forget a Wi-Fi network from your list of available networks do the following:

1. Select Settings in the Main Menu, then select Wi-Fi.

You see a list of available Wi-Fi networks and saved Wi-Fi networks that are currently out of

range.

Tip: Scroll down to go to the list of out-of-range saved networks.

2. Select the Wi-Fi network that you want to forget.

3. Select Modify then select Forget.

About updates and new items

A red exclamation mark in the Settings button shows you that updates or new items are available.

Tip: You may also be offered a system software update when you add a new map.

The following updates or new items can be offered:

System software updates

A System software update is a software update for the device itself. You see an explanation about

why the update is required and which features are changing or being added, if any.

If you have not used your device for a long time, you may be asked to install a required software

update when you use your device again. If you don't install the update, the following issues can

occur:

 Your device cannot be told about any updates, and no further updates would be possible.

 Your device cannot show the details of the required software updates, for example, size,

version, etc.

 Your device cannot add or delete any maps.

Map updates

When a map update is offered, install it as soon as possible so that you always drive with the latest

map.

The existing map is deleted before the map update is installed. If you cancel a map update, then

you will no longer have the map on your TomTom GO COMFORT. If this happens, go to Maps in the

Settings menu and download the map again.
