Getting started
Switching on
Follow the instructions on the Installation Poster to dock your TomTom ONE
XL in your car.
The first time you switch on your TomTom ONE XL, it may take up to 20
seconds to start. To switch off your TomTom ONE XL, press and hold the On/
Off button for 2 seconds.
Setting up
You have to answer a few questions to set up your TomTom ONE XL. Answer
the questions by tapping the screen. You will use the touchscreen for
everything you do with your ONE XL.
You can change these settings at any time using the Preferences menu. For
information about the Preferences menu, see Preferences on page 33.
Once you have answered the questions, your ONE XL will display the Driving
View. The Driving View is shown in black and white until your ONE XL locates
your current position.
For more information about the Driving View, see Driving View on page 14.
Locating your current position
Your TomTom ONE XL must be outdoors to locate your current position. The
first time you start your ONE XL, it can take up to 5 minutes to find your current
position. If it takes longer than 5 minutes, make sure that you are in an open
place without tall buildings or trees around you.
In the future, your position will be found much faster, normally within a few
seconds.
Once your ONE XL has located your current position, the Driving View is
shown in full colour and shows your position on the map.
Finding your position faster
You can help your TomTom ONE XL to find your position faster by using
QuickGPSfix. QuickGPSfix contains information about the positions of the
GPS satellites. Using this information, your ONE XL can locate your position
very quickly.
To download QuickGPSfix, connect your ONE XL to your computer. TomTom
HOME downloads the information and transfers it to your ONE XL. This
information is updated reguarly, so make sure you connect to your computer
often.
