Locating your current position
Your TomTom RIDER must be outside to be able to locate your current 
position. Make sure that you are in an open place without tall buildings or trees 
around you.
The first time you start your RIDER, it can take a few minutes for the device to 
find your current position. In the future, your position will be found much 
faster, normally within a few seconds.
Your RIDER does not transmit your location, so others cannot use it to track 
you while you are driving.
