Tips & Warnings
While driving, pay attention to the vocal instructions instead of checking the Tom Tom screen. If you take a wrong turn, the Tom Tom will automatically adjust and give commands to get back on track.
Do not leave the Tom Tom on the dash in your car when not using it. It is an easy target for thieves.
