    Installing the Dock 
    Use the Dock to install your Blue&Me-TomTom 2 navigation device inside the car. 
    To attach the Dock, insert the base of the dock into the dash plug on the car dashboard or A-pillar. 
    To insert your navigation device into the dock, push the button on the front of the dock to open 
    the top bracket. Place the bottom of the device into the dock and then push the top bracket of the 
    dock down until it clicks into place.  
    Rotate your device to a position that suits you best. To adjust the position of the device, first un-
    screw the knob on the back of the dock or press the left and right buttons on the shaft of the dock. 
    Adjust the position of the device and then fix it in place by tightening the knob. 
    To remove the navigation device, press the button on the front of the dock and lift the navigation 
    device out. 
    To release the dock from the dashboard, push the lower button on each side of the shaft and pull 
    out the dock.  
    Switching on and off 
    To switch on your navigation device manually, press and hold the On/Off button until you see the 
    start-up screen. The first time you switch on your navigation device, it may take a short time to 
    start. 
    Your Blue&Me-TomTom 2 navigation device starts automatically as soon as it is powered by the 
    dock. You can update the application using MyTomTom. 
    To set up your navigation device you need to answer a few questions by tapping the screen. You 
    then need to connect your navigation device to Blue&Me in your car. 
    Note: Your dealer may have connected your navigation device to Blue&Me for you. If this is the 
    case, you can already start using your device. 
     
    Setting up 
    Important: Take care to select the correct language as the language you choose will be used for 
    all text on the screen. 
    When you first switch on your device, you have to answer a few questions to set up the device. 
    Answer the questions by tapping the screen.  
    GPS reception 
    When you first start your Blue&Me-TomTom 2 navigation device, the device may need a few 
    minutes to determine your GPS position and show your current position on the map. In future, 
    your position will be found much faster, usually within a few seconds.

    To ensure good GPS reception, you should use your device outdoors. Large objects such as tall 
    buildings can sometimes interfere with reception.  
    About MyTomTom 
    MyTomTom helps you manage the contents and services of your Blue&Me-TomTom 2 navigation 
    device, as well as giving you access to the TomTom community. You log in to MyTomTom on the 
    TomTom website. It is a good idea to frequently connect your navigation device to MyTomTom to 
    ensure you always have the latest updates. 
    Tip: We recommend using a broadband internet connection whenever you connect your navi-
    gation device to MyTomTom. 
     
    Setting up MyTomTom 
     
    To set up MyTomTom, do the following: 
    1. Connect your computer to the internet. 
    2. Start a browser and go to tomtom.com/getstarted. 
    3. Click Download now. 
    Your browser downloads the MyTomTom support application, which you need to install on 
    your computer in order to connect your device to MyTomTom. Follow the instructions on the 
    screen if you are asked questions while downloading. 
    4. When prompted, connect your device to your computer using the USB cable. Then switch 
    your device on. 
    Important: You should plug the USB cable directly into a USB port on your computer and not into 
    a USB hub or USB port on a keyboard or monitor. 
    Once the MyTomTom support application is installed, you can access MyTomTom from the noti-
    fication area on your desktop. 
    Tip: When you connect your navigation device to your computer, MyTomTom tells you if there 
    are any updates for your device. 
     
    Device not starting 
    In rare cases, your Blue&Me-TomTom 2 navigation device may not start correctly or may stop 
    responding to your taps.

    First, check that the battery is charged. To charge the battery, connect your device to the car 
    charger. It can take up to 2 hours to fully charge the battery. 
    If this does not solve the problem, you can reset the device. To do this, press and hold the On/Off 
    button for 15 seconds and release the button when your device begins to restart.  
    Charging your device 
    The battery in your Blue&Me-TomTom 2 navigation device charges when you connect it to the 
    dock or to your computer. 
    The light on the On/Off button is orange while the battery is charging and is green when the bat-
    tery is fully charged. 
    Important: You should plug the USB connector directly into a USB port on your computer and not 
    into a USB hub or USB port on a keyboard or monitor.  
    Sharing information with TomTom 
    When you first start navigating or perform a reset, your device asks for permission to collect some 
    information about your use of the navigation device. The information is stored on the device until 
    we retrieve it. We use it anonymously to improve our products and services. If you use LIVE ser-
    vices, we will also use your location information to deliver the services to you. 
    You can change whether you share this information with us at any time by doing the following: 
    1. In the Main Menu, tap Settings.  
    2. Tap Status and Information.  
    3. Tap My information.  
    4. Tap No to stop sharing or tap Yes to start sharing.  
    Note: If you choose not to share this information, you will no longer receive LIVE services. This 
    is because LIVE services need to send the location of your device to TomTom in order to re-
    ceive the traffic information related to where you are. The end date of your subscription remains 
    the same, even if you do not share this information with us. 
    Additional information 
    Only if you give us your permission, your navigation device will continuously collect information 
    and send it to TomTom at regular intervals. The information is also stored on your device until you 
    connect it to your PC, then the information is sent to TomTom and deleted from your device. The 
    information includes details that identify the navigation device, details about routes and locations, 
    your MyTomTom account name and information entered while you were using the navigation 
    device. 
    TomTom uses this information to be able to deliver LIVE services to you and to improve the HD 
    Traffic service. 
    Within twenty minutes of switching off your navigation device, TomTom automatically and irre-
    versibly destroys any information that allows identification of you or your device. This, now 
    anonymous, information is used to improve TomTom’s products and services, such as maps, 
    reports on Points of Interest and average speeds driven. These products and services are also 
    used by government agencies and businesses.
