About the voice coach 
When playing music, a voice coach guides you through the important stages of your training. 
The voice coach is on by default and you hear the voice coach every time the watch beeps or buzzes 
with a message that needs your attention. As you are listening to music, the buzzer in the watch 
cannot be heard so your watch interrupts the music with a brief message.  
General prompts: 
 Watch ready, Demo mode, Bluetooth not working when swimming. 
TrainingPartner prompts: 
 Zone: in zone, above zone, below zone. 
 Goal: at 50%, 90% 100% and 110% of goal. 
 Race: ahead, behind, lost, won. 
Note: You can switch off the voice coach by pressing DOWN to open the SETTINGS menu, then 
select PROFILE and press RIGHT to open the PROFILE menu. Press VOICE and select NONE. 
You can also change the language of the voice coach using the same VOICE option within 
PROFILE. 
 
Headphones troubleshooting 
Some TomTom GPS watches are supplied with their own headphones for listening to music. 
If you experience gaps or clicks in the music, this may be due to your body blocking the Bluetooth 
signal between your watch and the headset controls.  
Try wearing the watch on the other wrist to improve the reception and audio quality. The best 
position for the watch is on the right wrist.
