User manual TOMTOM NAVIGATOR 5 QUICK START GUIDE

[. . . ] When prompted, type in your device code (displayed on the screen of your device). Select `Activate' on your device and then type in the activation code shown on your PC screen. Once the map has been activated, you can continue through the rest of the start up process. Some TomTom maps need to be activated before they can be used. [. . . ] Studying this summary can be useful for you to get a feel for your journey's scope and to check if the route includes roads that you'd rather avoid (in which case, see `Finding alternative routes', below). Select `Done' and you'll find yourself back at the main navigation view, but with the route now clearly colored in for you. As you approach a specific turn in the calculated route, your chosen voice will tell you what to do. For example, "In 100 yards, turn left", followed by "Turn left". As you travel, following the voice instructions, you'll notice that the navigation view is updated constantly, always showing coming roads and junctions and presenting the best route to you. Don't worry if you miss a turn or drive down the wrong road. A new fastest route will be calculated automatically, based on your new position and direction of travel. Wherever you go, it will always give you instructions that will take you to your chosen destination. If you'd rather pick a crossing than a house number, just select the `Crossing' button or press the joystick. White arrow heads show the direction you need to move along the current road and a speciallyshaped green arrow shows what to do at the next turn or intersection. Much of the information on the main navigation view is configurable (see the `Preferences' section for details). 2 The name of the next street to turn onto. 3 Configurable journey information including arrival time, time to destination and distance to destination. See `Name preferences' in the manual on CD, if you want to turn this off. 7 A `phone-style' signal indicator to give an idea of how good or bad the GPS reception is in your current location. If you miss a voice instruction, tap on the turn instruction in the bottom left hand corner ( 1 ), or press 7, 8, 9, 0, # or *, to generate a new one. And if you'd like to view the route summary again, tap anywhere in the journey information panel in the bottom right hand corner ( 2 , 3 or 7 ) or press the right soft key. Most of the time, the voice and turn instructions are all you need to navigate successfully, which means never having to look at the screen. At complicated junctions, where simple instructions aren't adequate, the navigation view comes into its own. A quick comparison between the screen and the world in front of you should be all you need. Maybe a route has been planned that you're not happy with?Perhaps you have been routed through a busy junction? [. . . ] Full details of the TomTom PLUS service can be found on the CD. NOTE: To use TomTom PLUS, you need a GPRS-ready mobile phone with Bluetooth. If you already pick up email or browse the Internet on your phone, then it's probably already GPRS-ready; if you're not sure, ask your network provider. All the features of your TomTom product are fully explained in the manual included on the CD. [. . . ]
