Home location

Tap this button to set or change your Home location. You enter the ad-

dress in the same way as you do when you plan a route.

Your Home location provides an easy way to plan a route to an important

location.

For most people, your Home location will be your home address. How-

ever, you might prefer to set the location to another regular destination,

such as your place of work.

Keyboard

Tap this button to select the keyboards that will be available for your use

and the layout of the Latin keyboard.

You use the keyboard to enter names and addresses, such as when you

plan a route or search for the name of a town or a local restaurant.

Language

Tap this button to change the language used for all the buttons and mes-

sages you see on your device.

You can choose from a wide range of languages. When you change the

language, you are also given the opportunity to change the voice.

Make your own menu

Tap this button to add up to six buttons to your own personalized menu.

If there are only one or two buttons in your menu, both buttons are

If you have three or more buttons in your menu, then a single button is

shown in the Driving view which opens your menu when tapped.

Manage POIs

Tap this button to manage your own Point of Interest (POI) categories

and locations.

You can set your TomTom device to let you know when you are near to

selected POI locations. For example, you could set the device to let you

know when you are approaching a gas station.

You can create your own POI categories and add your own POI locations

to these categories.

You can, for example, create a new POI category called Friends. You
