Installing in your car

Use the supplied mount to install your TomTom VIA in your vehicle. Read the instructions about

positioning your device before you install your VIA.

To install your VIA, do the following:

1. Connect the supplied USB cable to the mount. If the mount is integrated into your VIA, connect the

USB cable to the device.

Note: Use ONLY the USB cable supplied with your VIA. 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 windscreen or side window, to mount your TomTom

VIA.

Tip: If the mount is integrated into your VIA, you can easily change the rotation of your device.

Release the mount from the VIA 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 windscreen are clean and dry.

5. Press the suction cup of the mount firmly against your windscreen.

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 VIA, place your VIA in the mount, making sure that it clicks

into place.

Dashboard adhesive disks are available as part of a range of accessories for your VIA. For more

information, go to tomtom.com/accessories.

Positioning the device

Be careful where you install your VIA. The VIA shouldn't block or interfere with any of the following:

 Your view of the road.

 The controls in your vehicle.

 Your rear-view mirrors.

 The airbags.

You should be able to reach your VIA easily without leaning or stretching. In a car, you can attach your

VIA to the windscreen or side window or you can use a Dashboard Mount Disk to attach the mount to

your dashboard.

Switching on and off

Switching 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.

Sending your device to sleep

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

Get going

11

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.

Switching your device off completely

To switch 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 switch off the device. Select the "back" button if you don't want to

switch your device off.

 Press and hold the On/Off button for more than 5 seconds until the device switches 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 VIA, 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 VIA, it may need a few minutes to determine your position. In

future, your position will be found much faster.

To ensure good satellite reception, use your VIA 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 VIA find your

position faster. QuickGPSfix information is sent to Always Connected devices in real time and to

Smartphone Connected devices when connected to TomTom services using your smartphone. You

can also update QuickGPSfix using MyDrive.

Sending information to TomTom

When you first start navigating or you have reset your VIA, your VIA asks for permission to collect

some information about your use of the navigation device. The information is stored on your VIA 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 with 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.

12

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 you have the latest version of the application

installed on your navigation device by connecting to MyDrive using a computer.

When your VIA is up-to-date, you can use a memory card as extra storage space to add extra maps or

to store routes and tracks to your device. Maps can be purchased from tomtom.com.

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

memory card formatting is used.

Finding the memory card slot

The memory card slot is under the mount.

To insert a memory card, release the mount from the VIA using the thumb indent. Insert the memory

card into the slot. Clip the mount back onto the device until you hear it click.

Device not starting

In rare cases, your VIA may not start correctly or may stop responding to your taps.

First, check that the battery is charged. To charge the battery, connect your VIA 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 VIA begins to restart.

Charging your device

The battery in your TomTom VIA 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 VIA goes into sleep

mode.

Important: On device models START 42/52, START 40/50/60, and 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 VIA. Other USB cables may not work.

Caring for your VIA

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 invalidate the warranty.

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

About TomTom services

TomTom services give you real-time information about traffic and speed cameras on your route, and

lets you sync using TomTom MyDrive.

Smartphone Connected devices use your existing smartphone data plan to access TomTom Traffic as

well as other services like TomTom Speed Cameras and TomTom MyDrive by connecting to your

smartphone using Bluetooth®. Check tomtom.com/connect for more information.

To get TomTom services on your VIA, you need the following items:

 A smartphone with a data plan from a mobile services provider.

 A TomTom account.

Using TomTom services means that data is sent and received by your phone using your mobile

services provider.

Important: You might have additional costs when you use the internet on your phone, especially if you

are outside the area covered by your data plan. Check with your mobile services provider for more

information.

Note: TomTom services are not available in all countries or regions, and not all services are

available in all countries or regions. For more information on available services in each region, go to

tomtom.com/services.

Personal Area Networks

Smartphone-connected devices only

Your phone shares its internet connection by using the phone's Bluetooth® and Personal Area

Network (PAN) functions.

Depending on your phone's Operating System, this network, or PAN, might be called one of the

following names:

 Personal Hotspot

 Tethering or Bluetooth Tethering

 Tether or Bluetooth Tether

The PAN function is probably already in your phone's Operating System, or you can download an app

to create a PAN.

Note: Some mobile service providers don't allow their users to use a PAN. If your phone doesn't

have the PAN function, you should contact your service provider for more information.

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

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