Calling a POI
Many of the POIs on your TomTom Start include phone numbers. This means that you can use
your Start to find out the phone number for a POI, call them using a phone and then plan a route
to the location of the POI.
For example, you can search for a cinema, call to book a ticket and then plan a route to the
cinema.
1. Tap Navigate to or Drive to in the Main Menu.
2. Tap Point of Interest.
3. Select how you want to search for the POI.
For example, if you want to search for a POI on your route, tap POI along route.
4. Tap the type of POI you want to navigate to.
For example, if you want to call a cinema to reserve a ticket, tap Cinema and then select the
name of the cinema you want to call. Then tap Show info to see the phone number.
5. Call the POI on a phone to, for example, reserve tickets or check their opening hours.
6. Tap Select.
Your Start starts navigating to the POI.
Setting warnings for POIs
You can set a warning sound or message to be played or displayed when you approach a selected
type of POI, such as a petrol station.
The following example will show how to set a warning sound to be played when you are 250
metres from a petrol station.
1. Tap Manage POIs or Warn when near POI in the settings menu.
2. Scroll down the list and tap Petrol station.
Tip: To remove a warning, tap on the category name and then tap Yes. POI categories which
have been set with a warning have a sound symbol next to the category name.
3. Set the distance as 250 metres and tap OK.
4. Select Sound effect and then tap Next.
5. Select the warning sound for the POI and then tap Next.
6. If you only want to hear the warning when the POI is directly on a planned route, select Warn
only if POI is on route. Then tap Done.
The warning is set for the selected POI category. You will hear a warning sound when you are
250 metres from a petrol station on your route.
