Maps

The digital maps form the basis of everything your TomTom product can do and many functions

make use of the map browser. This chapter explains how to move around in the browser and how to

use it to set up destinations and search for things.

Browse map

Choose 'Browse map'

the same way as a paper map, i.e. with north 'upwards', and shows the usual cities, towns, major

roads, streets, railway lines, rivers and lakes. Unlike a paper map, you can zoom in and out and

vary the amount of detail shown. You can also overlay categories of Points Of Interest, Traffic

information (if subscribed) and personal elements such as favorite locations and

departure/destination points.

Note: The appearance of the map and its associated controls will differ slightly when using live Traffic

information (dimmed main colors, highlighted traffic delays). In addition, TomTom GO remote control or

TomTom MOBILE users will see just two buttons, 'Options' and 'Done'. In these cases, choosing

'Options' brings up extra controls, including 'Use cursor...' and 'Find'.

Scroll around a map by dragging it with your finger (TomTom GO users), stylus (Navigator users) or

by using your Navigator key (TomTom MOBILE users). Maps will usually be scaled for you, perhaps

to encompass a recently-calculated route or to show details of a particular junction, but you can

adjust the scale yourself if needed. If the zoom bar is showing, simply drag its handle

and down slowly. The map will be continuously zoomed in (when sliding down) and out (when

sliding up) around the current cursor position. If the zoom bar is absent (TomTom MOBILE users or

when TomTom GO is used with the optional remote control), press 'OK' to access the zoom

functions.

Tip: Only a 'blocky' preview map is shown while you're changing the zoom level. The moment you lift

your finger, the map is drawn properly in full detail.

Cursor functions

The cursor

is the most valuable tool in the map browser. Select any spot on the map to place

the cursor there. You can then do things with the current cursor position by using the cursor

function
