Assembly
1. Assemble the suction-mount cradle as shown
in the installation poster.
2. Plug the small plug end of the DC power lead
into the socket on the back of the
cradle. Plug the other end into your vehicle’s
12V (cigarette lighter) socket.
3. Ease TomTom GO onto its cradle by locating
its front edge first and then rotating back firmly
until you hear a click. You’ll feel TomTom GO
lock into place. The green LED on TomTom
GO’s front panel will light up if the cradle is
also connected to your vehicle’s 12V socket.
4. Clean the inside of your windscreen (or side
window), to remove any dust and grease.
Place the cradle in a suitable location on your
windscreen and push the black plastic lever to
the right, fixing the cradle in position.
NOTE: Some newer vehicles may have a heat reflective
shield embedded in the windscreen. In some cases this
can prevent proper GPS signal reception. If this turns
out to be a problem in your vehicle, you will need to
purchase and install the TomTom External Antenna Kit
(available as an accessory).
Tip: You don’t have to use the cradle if you don’t want to. If
necessary, TomTom GO can be positioned on its own anyw-
here that’s convenient, provided that it’s safely secured.
Under normal journey conditions, the suction
mount is perfectly sufficient to hold the cradle
in position. Note that suction may be lost if left
overnight, due to condensation and low tem-
perature. For this reason, and for security, we
recommend removing both the suction mount
Installation
cradle and TomTom GO when leaving your
vehicle overnight. To remove the cradle, pull the
suction mount lever to the left. If the cradle still
doesn’t detach from your wind screen, tug gently
on the clear plastic tab at the edge of the suction
mount, to break the vacuum seal.
Tip: To activate your 12V socket, you may need to set your
ignition key in an ‘Accessories’ position. Please consult
your vehicle handbook. In addition, TomTom GO contains a
rechargeable battery and can be used for up to 4 hours wit-
hout charging, so for short journeys it may be possible to do
without the DC power lead for simpler and tidier operation.
To adjust the angle of TomTom GO, slacken the
adjustable knobs on the cradle and then turn
it gently. In addition to tilting the cradle up and
down and from side to side, you can also rotate
TomTom GO in the cradle, from left to right,
±45°. When you’re happy, tighten up the knobs
again.
Tip: After using TomTom GO, remove it from the cradle by
pressing the release button while rotating the unit forward
gently. Put it in the supplied bag. If you want to clean it, use
a soft, dry cloth. Do not use water or a solvent.
