Network (PAN) functions.
Depending on your phone's Operating System, this network, or PAN, might be called one of the
following names:
Personal Hotspot

The PAN function is probably already in your phone's Operating System, or you can download an app
to create a PAN.
Please check the user guide for your phone if you are having trouble finding the settings.
For more help, go to tomtom.com/connect.
Note: Some mobile service providers don't allow their users to use a PAN. If your phone doesn't
have the PAN function, you should contact your service provider for more information.
