How to plan your first route

Don't worry if some of the icons are 'greyed out', this
just indicates that these menu options aren't availa-
ble yet. E.g. as you haven't yet planned a route then
'Find alternative...', '
View route' and 'Clear route' are all greyed out.
How to plan your first route
1. Move outside, if you haven't already done so,
so that the GPS hardware can locate your
position. This may take some time, and will
happen more quickly if you remain stationary.
The screen displays your current position
on its map, represented in a '3D' navigation
view, from a driver's perspective. When you
start moving, the navigation view will match
the streets outside as you would see them
through your windscreen.
Your position (and direction) is indicated by the
icon.
2. Bring up the main menu as explained previ-
ously. Use
a few times to browse through
all the different things you can do, then
choose 'Navigate to...'
your first route.
Remember that
more to see on the next page, in this case extra
ways of choosing a destination.
3. Choose 'Address'
standard keyboard, used for entering place
names (e.g. towns, streets and favourite
locations). Above the keyboard is a small
browser window in which your TomTom GO
will present locations from its database.
