Before you use your TomTom Bandit, please read all the safety precautions carefully. Failure to
follow the guidelines and instructions could result in an accident or collision that causes death or
serious injury and/or damage to your TomTom Bandit.
 Obey all local laws and pay close attention to your surroundings before and while using your
TomTom Bandit. Never adjust or check your TomTom Bandit while operating a bicycle, a
motorcycle, a car, or any other vehicle type.
 Only use approved accessories made specifically for your TomTom Bandit.
 Always wear a helmet and protective gear that is appropriate for your activity.
 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.
 Never mount your TomTom Bandit in such a way that will obstruct or impair your view. Any
major impact (for example, dropping or bumping) may damage your TomTom Bandit.

cause skin irritation.
 Do not use or store your TomTom Bandit in a hot places such as a car, or in dusty, humid or
steamy places for extended periods of time.
 With the standard lens cover your TomTom Bandit is splash-proof. If you want to use the
TomTom Bandit in water or underwater to depths down to 50 m (5 ATM), or for activities on the
water surface, for example surfing, install the optional waterproof (IPX8) lens cover. If any
abnormality is found during use, switch off your TomTom Bandit immediately. Water inside your
TomTom Bandit or Batt-Stick can cause damage and could cause an explosion or fire.
 Keep your TomTom Bandit lens cover and Batt-Stick clean, especially the seals. Check the lens
cover and Batt-Stick seals for debris, damage and cracks. Small debris and cracks can cause
leakage and may damage your TomTom Bandit.
 After every use in water or near sand, mud or other foreign materials, rinse the outside of your
TomTom Bandit with clean water. After cleaning, dry the camera with a clean, dry and lint-free
cloth. On the Batt-Stick, open the external contact cap and dry both the contacts and the cap.
Not doing this can cause corrosion or camera failure.
