You will be asked how you want to activate the map that comes with

TomTom NAVIGATOR will connect to TomTom using the wireless data 
connection and activate the map.

To activate a map manually, do the following:
1. Tap Manual.
2. Go to this website: www.ttcode.com

Improving reception
If your TomTom NAVIGATOR takes longer than 5 minutes to find your current 
position, make sure that the device is in an open space away from tall objects, 
such as buildings or trees.
Important: Some vehicles have heat reflective shielding in the windscreen. 
This may prevent your NAVIGATOR from locating your current position.

Arrival times
When you plan a route, your TomTomNAVIGATOR asks you if you need to 
arrive at a particular time.
Tap YES to enter a preferred arrival time.
Your NAVIGATOR calculates your arrival time and shows you whether you will 
arrive on time.
You can also use this information to work out when you need to leave. If your 
NAVIGATOR shows that you will arrive 30 minutes early, you can wait and 
leave in 30 minutes time, rather than arrive early.
Your arrival time is constantly recalculated during your journey. The status bar 
shows whether you will arrive on time or if you are going to be late, as shown 
below:
You will arrive 55 minutes before the arrival time you entered.
If the estimated arrival time is more than five minutes before 
the time you entered, it is shown in green.
You will arrive 3 minutes before the arrival time you entered. 
If the estimated arrival time is less than 5 minutes before the 
time you entered, it is shown in yellow.

route.
