Starting your TomTom Hands-Free Car Kit for the first time 

When you first connect your TomTom Hands-Free Car Kit to a power supply, your Car Kit starts 
and plays the TomTom drums sound. 

Your Car Kit is initially set to use English to give you information. 

To change the language, do the following: 

1.

 

Press the 

Menu

 button once you have heard the TomTom drums and your Car Kit talks to you 

for the first time. 

The first information that your Car Kit gives you is about the language it is using. 

After you press the 

Menu

 button, your device reads a sentence in each language that is avail-

able. 

2.

 

When you hear the language that you want your Car Kit to use, press the 

Menu

 button again. 

If you don't press the menu button to change the language, your Car Kit continues to use Eng-
lish for all messages. 

Your Car Kit now starts trying to 

connect to your phone

If you don't change the language when you first start your Car Kit, you can 

change the language

 

later using the menu. 

 

Connecting your TomTom Hands-Free Car Kit to your phone 

If you have not already connected or paired your TomTom Hands-Free Car Kit with your phone, 
when you connect your Car Kit to a power supply, it starts trying to connect to your phone using 
Bluetooth®. 

Your Car Kit tells you that it is in connection mode and ready to connect to your phone. 

If you have already connected one phone to your Car Kit and you want to connect another phone, 
you should 

start the connecting process from the menu

To connect, do the following: 

 

Make sure that you switch on Bluetooth® on your phone. 

 

On your phone, search or scan for other Bluetooth® devices. 

 

On your phone, select 'TomTom Hands-Free Car Kit' when it shows you a list of devices you 
can connect to. 

 

You may have to enter the password '0000' on your phone in order to connect to your 
TomTom Hands-Free Car Kit device. 

 

To avoid having to enter '0000' every time you use the phone, save your TomTom Hands-Free 
Car Kit device as a trusted device on your phone. 

For additional information about Bluetooth settings, refer to your mobile phone user guide. 

If the connection process is unsuccessful, you can either disconnect your Car Kit from the power 
supply then reconnect it to start the connection process again, or 

start the connection process 

from the menu
