To activate a map manually, do the following:

1. Tap Manual.

2. Go to this website: www.ttcode.com

3. Follow the instructions on this page to get an activation code.

4. Enter the activation code on your device to activate the map.

Once you have answered the questions and activated your map, NAVIGATOR

displays the Driving View. The Driving View is shown in black and white until

NAVIGATOR locates your current position.

For more information about the Driving View, see Driving View on page 10.

Locating your current position

Your GPS receiver must be outdoors to locate your current position. The first

time you start NAVIGATOR, it can take up to 5 minutes to find your current

position. If it takes longer than 5 minutes, make sure that you are in an open

place without tall buildings or trees around you.

In the future, your position will be found much faster, normally within a few

seconds.

Once NAVIGATOR has located your current position, the Driving View is

shown in full colour and shows your position on the map.

Backup TomTom NAVIGATOR

It's always a good idea to make a backup of the contents of your memory card.

You can make a backup using TomTom HOME.

For more information about TomTom HOME, see Using TomTom HOME on

page 40.

Now you are ready to get going. When you start to use NAVIGATOR, make

sure you always drive safely by using the Safety preferences in the

Preferences menu.

You can choose to use the safety lock. If the safety lock is enabled, only a few

buttons and features are available while you are driving. When you are

stationary, all the buttons and features are available.

You can also choose to turn the map display off.

For more information, see Safety preferences on page 29.

Note: TomTom NAVIGATOR does not transmit your position. You can

however send your position to TomTom Buddies. For more information, visit

www.tomtom.com/plus

Note: Some vehicles have a heat reflective shield embedded in the

windscreen, which may prevent TomTom NAVIGATOR from locating your

current position. If this is a problem in your vehicle, try placing your GPS

receiver in your rear window.
