STEP BY STEP SEARCH ONLY
Important: In the interest of safety and to avoid distractions while you are driving, you should
always plan a route before you start driving.
To plan a route using a pair of coordinates, do the following:
1.
Select the Main Menu button to open the Main Menu.
2.
Select Drive To.
3.
Select Latitude Longitude.
Tip: The example coordinates shown on the screen are your current latitude and longitude.
4.
Type in your pair of coordinates. You can enter any of these coordinate types:
Decimal values, for example:
N 51.51000 W 0.13454
51.51000 -0.13454
Degrees, minutes and seconds, for example:
N 51°30′31″ W 0°08′34″
GPS standard coordinates, for example:
N 51 30.525 W 0 08.569
5.
As you type in the coordinates, suggestions are shown based on what you have entered. You can
continue typing or select a suggestion.
6.
Select a suggestion for your destination.
The location is shown on the map.
7.
To plan a route to this destination, select Drive/Ride depending on which device you are using.
A route is planned and then guidance to your destination begins. As soon as you start driving,
the guidance view is shown automatically.
Tip: To see more results, hide the keyboard or scroll down the results list.
Tip: You can switch between seeing the results on the map or in a list by selecting the
list/map button:
Tip: For decimal values you don't have to use a letter to indicate the latitude and longi-
tude. For locations west of the 0 meridian and locations south of the equator, use a minus
sign (-) before the coordinate.
Note: The bar below the coordinates goes red if you enter coordinates that are not recognised
by your TomTom GO BASIC.
