Hands-
free 
callingAbout hands-free calls
Important: Not all phones are supported or compatible with all features. For more infor-
mation, go to tomtom.com/phones/compatibility.
If you have a mobile phone with Bluetooth®, you can use your TomTom Rider to make 
hands-free phone calls.
Using a headset
We recommend using a compatible headset with your TomTom Rider to hear spoken 
instructions, make and receive hands-free phonecalls and hear warning sounds on your 
Rider. This makes riding with your Rider as safe as possible. TomTom recommends the 
Cardo scala-rider™ Bluetooth® headset. For more information and a full list of compatible 
headsets, go to tomtom.com/riderheadsets.
The Cardo scala-rider™ Bluetooth® headset is included in some products. The instruc-
tions below describe how to set up this headset.
To turn the headset on, press and hold the on/off button for 10 seconds, until the LED 
flashes blue 3 times. An ascending alert tone is played. When the headset is on, the LED 
flashes blue every 3 seconds.
To turn the headset off, press and hold the on/off button for 3 seconds, until the LED 
flashes red 3 times. A descending alert tone is played.
If you did not establish a Bluetooth connection between your Bluetooth headset and your 
TomTom Rider when you first turned your Rider on, you can establish the connection at 
any time.
From the Main Menu, tap options. Tap Connect to headset and follow the instructions to 
establish the connection.
Attach your headset to your helmet as shown at the start of this guide. Make sure you posi-
tion the microphone correctly. For best results, don’t position the microphone directly in 
front of your mouth, position it just to the side of your mouth.
Connecting to your phone

use a compatible headset with your RIDER. We recommend the Cardo scala-rider™ Blue-
