About activities
You can use your TomTom Bandit to record a wide range of types of sports and activities but you
should take note of the following:
Scuba diving
If you want to use the TomTom Bandit in water or underwater to depths down to 50 m, fit the
optional waterproof lens cover.
See Using lens covers.
Extreme sports
Your TomTom Bandit has been designed to cope with knocks and is protected against vibration and
shock. It also works in a temperature range from -20°C to +40°C.
Important: Make sure your TomTom Bandit is secure before you start every activity. Regularly check
the security of the mount. If the activity involves shocks or vibration, use a lanyard to prevent loss
of the TomTom Bandit if the mount fails.

During recording, you can move right from the Camera Status screen to view the Metrics screen.
Move left to go back to the Camera Status screen.
You see two metrics which vary depending on which mode you are using. The text underneath each
metric shows which information is currently being displayed.
Some examples of metrics available:
 Video mode - minutes remaining at the top of the screen, minutes already recorded shown at
the bottom of the screen.
 Speed mode - maximum speed shown at the top of the screen and current speed at the bottom
of the screen.
