Warnings

To receive traffic information from the TomTom Traffic server your Pocket PC needs

a working mobile GPRS internet connection.

●

The Traffic Plug-In has been designed to retrieve traffic information over a

GPRS or other packet switched connection. Do not use the Traffic Plug-In

with GSM Data or other circuit switched connections, this can lead to

substantial communication costs.

●

The devices and networks that can be used to set up a GPRS mobile internet

connection are various. Though the TomTom website will provide tips on how

to connect, TomTom cannot provide support on setting up an internet

connection on your Pocket PC.

oContact your mobile telecom provider for support on setting up a

GPRS connection with your mobile phone and/or a Pocket PC

oContact the manufacturer of your mobile phone for configuring

Bluetooth on your mobile phone.

oContact your Pocket PC manufacturer for information on establishing a

Bluetooth bond between your Pocket PC and a mobile phone, and for

configuring a GPRS and Internet connection on your Pocket PC.

●

Due to its dynamic nature, traffic information can by definition never

represent the full, current traffic situation. There are locations for which

information is not available, and some incidents might not be detected on

time. Quality, coverage and reporting times will differ from one region to the

other. Pay attention to changes in usual traffic routes, construction detours

and other road conditions which may not be reported by the TomTom Traffic

Plug-In. Adhere to all applicable traffic laws and regulations.

●

Please note that traffic information is not available in all countries covered by

TomTom maps. Check www.tomtom.com for the latest on traffic coverage.

Getting started

TomTom Navigator receives traffic information from the TomTom Traffic server

over a mobile GPRS internet connection.

To receive traffic information:

●

Verify that you have a working GPRS Internet connection on your Pocket PC

(although TomTom cannot give you support on how to set up a GPRS Internet

connection, you will find useful tips at www.tomtom.com). Make sure your Pocket

PC is not in the desktop cradle and open Internet Explorer from the Pocket PC’s

main menu. In the address bar type pda.tomtom.com/test, if the TomTom web

site appears you have a working internet connection.

Using your PC, create a TomTom Traffic useraccount at MyTomTom.

●

your Pocket PC. If the Traffic Plug-In has been installed correctly you will be

prompted to enter the login and password of your TomTom Traffic account. Enter

connection, activate your traffic account and retrieve the latest traffic

information. Please be patient; retrieving traffic information the first time can

take several minutes.

●

Tap OK to continue. After selecting menu icon style and the introduction screen,

TomTom Navigator will show the Traffic View, explained in the next section.

Traffic View

The Traffic View presents traffic incidents in a map. To open the Traffic View, open

the View Selector by tapping and then select Traffic.

Move around the map in Traffic View the same way as in Map View. Traffic View is

ideal for commuting. It provides an overview of the traffic situation without the

need to plan a route. In Traffic View, the map will move with your position.

Update the information on the map by tapping .

Note: Every traffic update request implies data communication and, though the

amount of data exchanged is compressed, it can affect your communication costs.

Traffic incidents are displayed on the map. Traffic jams are indicated with animated

lines. The animation indicates the affected direction, an icon positioned at the tail

of the jam can indicate the cause of the jam. Road works are displayed as dotted

stationary lines. Single icons on the map indicate other traffic incidents, such as an

accident or road closure.

Tapping a traffic icon on the map will display details on the incident. If you have

planned a route and tap the Avoid option below the incident details, TomTom

Navigator will replan the route avoiding the traffic incident. Avoided incidents are

displayed in the map with .

The bar below the map in Traffic View is the Traffic Ticker. It:

•Presents information on the area, for example “dense fog”

•Presents information about incidents on the current route

•Indicates when the traffic information was last refreshed

To plan the quickest route taking into account delays caused by traffic incidents,

select Minimise traffic delays … from the Tools menu. Select Original route

from the Tools menu to clear all incident avoids and replan the route.

Navigator View

When navigating, Navigator will inform you on traffic incidents reported on your

route. In the Navigator map all traffic incidents on your route are displayed.

The Route Scheme on the left side of the screen displays the traffic incidents on your

route, and your current position. Tap Show Route Scheme in the Navigation

Menu to show and hide the Route Scheme.

Tap an icon on the Route Scheme to show incident details. The Avoid button on the

details screen is explained in the next section.

When traffic information is available the Traffic Ticker is visible in Navigation View. To

refresh the traffic information tap Update traffic info in the Navigation menu.

Note: Every traffic update request implies data communication and, though the

amount of data exchanged is compressed, it can affect your communication costs.

Getting around traffic jams

Traffic information is available for main roads. Navigator informs you about traffic

incidents and will – by default - leave the decision to avoid them to you. Navigator

can help you plan around incidents.

When you plan a route, Navigator will always calculate the quickest route to your

destination, regardless of the presence of traffic incidents on your route. In case

there is a traffic incident on your route, Navigator will let you know through:

•A message in the Ticker

•An icon in the Route Scheme

•Playing a sound

To avoid traffic incidents:

1. In the navigation menu tap Alternative route

2. Tap Minimise traffic delays. Navigator will now plan the quickest

route taking into account delays caused by traffic jams.

Note: Sometimes Minimise traffic delays will guide you through a traffic jam

because there is no quicker route circumventing the incident.

To circumvent an incident completely:

1. Tap the incident’s icon in the Route Scheme

2. Tap the Avoid button. Navigator will plan the quickest route around the

traffic incident.

Any route you will plan will now circumvent the incident, until the incident is

cleared, the avoid is cleared or if you revert to the original route.
