The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a satellite-based system that provides location and 

timing information around the globe. GPS is operated and controlled under the sole 

responsibility of the Government of the United States of America, which is responsible for 

its availability and accuracy. Any changes in GPS availability and accuracy, or in environ-

mental conditions, may impact the operation of your TomTom device. TomTom does not 

accept any liability for the availability and accuracy of GPS.

Use of a TomTom device for navigation still means that you need to drive with due care 

and attention. 

Do not leave your TomTom device or TomTom accessories in view when you leave your 

car. They may become an easy target for thieves.

We recommend that you use the safety preferences on your TomTom device, where avail-

able. The safety preferences are available in the Preferences menu.

Take care of your TomTom device and clean it correctly.
• If your device gets wet, dry it with a soft cloth.
• Do not open the casing of your device under any circumstances. Doing so may be dan-

gerous and will invalidate your warranty.

• Do not expose your device to high or low temperatures, which can cause permanent 

damage. For example, don’t leave it in the car on hot summer days or during cold winter 

nights.

This product uses a Lithium-Ion battery. Do not use it in a humid, wet and/or corrosive 

environment. Do not put, store or leave your product in or near a heat source, in a high 

temperature location, in strong direct sunlight, in a microwave oven or in a pressurized 

container, and do not expose it to temperatures over 60 C (140 F). Failure to follow these 

guidelines may cause the Lithium-Ion battery to leak acid, become hot, explode or ignite 

and cause injury and/or damage. Do not pierce, open or disassemble the battery. If the 

battery leaks and you come into contact with the leaked fluids, rinse thoroughly with water 

and seek medical attention immediately. For safety reasons, and to prolong the lifetime of 

the battery, charging will not occur at low (below 0 C/32 F) or high (over 45 C/113 F) tem-

peratures.
