Getting started

not being used by a radio station. You will 
use this frequency for your FM Transmitter

2. Attach the FM Transmitter Mount to the 
windshield in your car, then dock your GO.
If you are in the Driving View, your GO asks

radio.

do one of the following:
• Tap the FM Transmitter button shown in 
the Driving View.
• In the Main Menu tap Change 
preferences, then tap Speaker 
preferences.
3. Tap Yes.
Your FM Transmitter Mount immediately 
start to transmit sound to your car radio at 
a set frequency.

Your GO confirms the new frequency that 
you selected and repeats the last spoken 
instruction.
5. Tap OK.
Whenever your GO is docked on the FM 
Transmitter Mount, this button is shown in the 
Driving View.
Tap this button at any time to start or stop the 
FM Transmitter Mount transmitting sound, 
and to change the frequency that the Mount is 
using. 
Note: If you drive into an area where a radio 
station transmits on the frequency you are using 
for the FM Transmitter Mount, you may have to 
change the frequency you use.
Tips
• You cannot search automatically for a 
frequency that is not being used by a 
radio station. You need to search 
manually on your car radio.
• When you search for a frequency not 
being used by a radio station, try to find 
one that has no interference at all. Any 
noise that you can hear from a radio 
station will interfere with the reception.
• When you find a frequency, store it in 
your radio so that you can find it again 
easily.
