Step by step search
Find your destination in easy steps. For an address, enter the city, then the street, then the
house number. For a POI, enter where you want to search, then the type of POI you want to
search for.
Both types of search give the same result, so choose the type of search that you find easiest to
use.
Format memory card
If your device has a memory card slot, you can format a memory card so it can be used for
TomTom maps and other TomTom content.
Reset device
Select this setting to delete all your saved places and settings and restore the standard factory
settings to your TomTom GO BASIC. This includes the language, voice settings, warning settings
and theme. The contact book from your phone is also deleted.
This is not a software update and will not affect the version of the software application in-
stalled on your TomTom GO.
Battery settings
Select this setting to control power saving options on your TomTom GO.
Your information & privacy
Some features require information to be sent to TomTom or stored on your device. You are
asked the following questions:
Use my location and the information I enter to receive TomTom services
If you agree, you can use the following features if they are supported by your device:
TomTom MyDrive
Traffic
Download speed camera locations
Quick Search
Send speed camera reports
Keep journey history on this device for optional features
If you agree, your device suggests destinations if the feature is supported by your device. If
you disagree at a later time, your historical route information is removed. This means that if
you want to receive suggested destinations again at a later time, the feature has to relearn
your driving patterns before it can start suggesting destinations.
