    About postcodes 
    When searching using a postcode, your results depend on the type of postcode used in the country 
    that you are searching in. 
    The following types of postcodes are used: 
     Postcodes that navigate you to a street or part of a street. 
     Postcodes that navigate you to an area comprising, for example, a single town, several villages 
    in a rural area or a district in a large city. 
    Postcodes for streets 
    Countries such as the Netherlands and the United Kingdom use this type of postcode. When you 
    search using this type of postcode, enter the postcode, then leave a space and then optionally enter 
    the house number. For example, 1017CT 35. Your device then plans a route to a specific house or 
    building on a specific street. 
    Postcodes for areas 
    Countries such as Germany, France and Belgium use this type of postcode. If you search using a 
    postcode for an area, your results include all the streets in a city district, the whole town, or the 
    villages within that postcode.    
    You may get results from multiple countries if you enter a postcode for an area.  
    Note: If you search using a postcode for an area, you will not get a specific address in your 
    results. 
    This type of postcode is still very useful in reducing the number of search results. For example, a 
    search for Neustadt in Germany returns a long list of possible results. Adding a space followed by 
    the postcode for an area narrows the results down to the Neustadt that you are looking for. 
    As another example, if you want to search in a city, enter a postcode for an area and select the city 
    centre you are searching for from the results.  
    About mapcodes 
    In countries where roads and houses have no names or addresses, you can use a mapcode instead. A 
    mapcode represents a location.  
    Every location on Earth, including those in the sea like islands and oil rigs, can be represented by a 
    mapcode. Mapcodes are short, and easy to recognise, remember and communicate. They are 
    precise to a few metres, which is good enough for every-day use.  
    Go to mapcode.com for instructions on how to find the mapcode for a location. 
    Mapcodes are more precise and more flexible than the address on a business card. You can choose a 
    location that you want to associate with your address, for example, the main entrance or the 
    entrance to a car park.

    Using suggested destinations 
    What are suggested destinations? 
    Your TomTom Rider can learn your daily driving habits to saved favourite Places and it can also 
    suggest destinations when you start the device from sleep mode, for example, when driving to Work 
    in the morning. 
    Getting ready for suggested destinations 
    Before you get your first suggested destination, your device needs some time to learn about your 
    habits. The more regularly you drive with your TomTom Rider, the faster you will get suggestions 
    and the more accurate the suggested destinations will be.  
    To receive suggested destinations, you need to do the following: 
     In Settings > System > Your information and privacy, switch on Keep journey history on this 
    device for optional features. 
     Make sure no route is planned. 
     If your device has voice control, switch voice control ON. Make sure that your volume is not 
    muted and is set higher than 20%. 
     Do some driving for a few days, planning routes to your favourite My Places destinations. 
    Using suggested destinations 
    Important: If your device has voice control, you can say Yes or No or select the Yes or No button. If 
    your device doesnt have voice control, select the Yes or No button. 
    If your device prompts Going to X?, where X is a destination, you have 12 seconds to respond yes or 
    no.  
    Tip: If you dont respond yes or no, your Rider assumes a yes. 
    If you respond yes, your device plans a route to your destination. If you respond no, you can select 
    from a list of saved Places and recent destinations instead. 
    Alternatively, if your device prompts Where do you want to go?, you can choose immediately from 
    a list of saved Places and recent destinations. 
    Switching suggested destinations on or off 
    You can turn suggested destinations on or off at any time. See Route planning and Voice Control (if 
    your device has voice control) for information on how to switch this feature on or off.  
    Planning a route to an address using search 
    Important: In the interest of safety and to avoid distractions while you are driving, you should 
    always plan a route before you start driving.
