If you have a Bluetooth-capable mobile phone then you can use your TomTom GO 700 or GO 500 as
a hands-free car kit. Although some functions are dependent on your phone's capabilities, you
should usually be able to:
Accept incoming calls on the TomTom GO screen with a single tap of the screen.
See that a new SMS message has arrived and read its contents, again with a single tap.
Dial out, using contact details retrieved from your phone's SIM card.
Get your call history, contact phone numbers and SMS messages from your phone.

If this is the very first time you have used TomTom GO with your phone and there are a few steps
