your current position. Once this is done, the Driving View is shown in full  
colour.  
Locating your current position  
Your TomTom RIDER must be outside to be able to locate your current  
position. The first time you start your RIDER, it takes up to 5 minutes for the  
device to find your current position.  
In future, your position will be found much faster, normally within a few  
seconds. If your RIDER takes longer than 5 minutes to locate your current

position, make sure that you are in an open place without tall buildings or trees  
around you.  
Your RIDER does not transmit your location, so others cannot use it to track  
you while you are driving.  
Note: Before driving with your TomTom RIDER, we recommend that you  
charge it fully using the home charger.  
TomTom RIDER uses a GPS receiver to locate your current position. For more

Mounting TomTom RIDER on  
Mounting TomTom RIDER on  
your motorcycle  
Where should I mount my TomTom RIDER?  
When you choose where to mount your device, think about the following:  
• The mounting options available  
• The most comfortable position  
Spend some time thinking about where to mount your TomTom RIDER on  
your motorcycle. Not all mounts are suitable for all bikes. It should be in a  
position where you can see it easily and where it does not block your vision.  
Warning: The Adhesive Mount is very strong and it is very difficult to remove  
once it has been attached to your motorcycle. Before attaching the Adhesive  
Mount to your motorcycle, be sure that you have chosen the position where  
you finally want to mount your RIDER.  
Mounting your TomTom RIDER  
There are four different mounts:  
• Handlebar Mount  
• Handlebar Adaptor  
• Mirror Mount  
• Adhesive Mount  
The sections below describe how to use each mount. Make sure that you  
screw all parts of the mounts together very tightly, otherwise the mount may  
move while you are driving.  
Handlebar Mount  
The Handlebar Mount is attached directly onto the handlebars. To use this  
mount, follow these steps:  
1. Unscrew the Handlebar Mount using the Allen key.  
11  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
 
2. Wrap the piece of rubber provided around the handlebars to make the  
handlebars thick enough for the Handlebar Mount. Cut the piece of rubber  
to adjust the thickness.  
Note: The piece of rubber helps prevent vibration and stops the Handlebar  
Mount from slipping while you are driving.  
3. Place the Handlebar Mount around the handlebars and over the piece of  
rubber.  
4. Screw the Handlebar mount together tightly using the Allen key provided.  
5. Screw the Holder to the Handlebar Mount using four of the small screws  
included with the mounting kit.  
If your TomTom RIDER is not in a comfortable position, unscrew the  
Handlebar Mount slightly and adjust the angle of the mount and the holder.  
Then screw the Handlebar Mount together tightly again.  
You can now place your TomTom RIDER in the Holder. See this section:  
Handlebar adaptor  
The Handlebar Adaptor is secured by bolts next to the grip, as shown.  
12  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
To use this mount, follow these steps:  
1. Carefully remove the bolts that hold the grip in place. Do not remove the  
grip from the handlebars.  
2. Place the Handlebar Adaptor over the bolt holes.  
3. Use the extra-long bolts provided to attach the Handlebar Adaptor and the  
grip to the handlebars. Use an Allen key (not provided) to tighten the bolts.  
4. Attach the Handlebar Mount to the Handlebar Adapter. Follow steps 2 - 4 in  
the section Handlebar Mount above.  
You can now place your TomTom RIDER in the Holder. See this section:  
Mirror Mount  
The Mirror Mount is held in place by the wing mirror. If your motorcycle or  
scooter has no mirrors but has the bolt holes for a wing mirror, you can still  
use the Mirror Mount.  
To use this mount, follow these steps:  
1. Unscrew one of the wing mirrors on your motorcycle.  
2. Place first the rubber washer, then the Mirror Mount and finally the metal  
washer over the bolt hole, as shown in the diagram.  
13  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
Note: The washers help to prevent the mirror mount from moving or from  
being damaged. Select the diameter of the washers according to the  
diameter of the bolt hole.  
3. Screw the wing mirror back into place. The wing mirror holds the Mirror  
Mount in place.  
Note: If you have only the bolt holes for a wing mirror, use one of the bolts  
provided to hold the Mirror Mount in place. Select the diameter of the bolt  
according to the diameter of the bolt hole.  
4. Screw the Adhesive Mount to the Mirror Mount, using four of the small  
screws included with the mounting kit.  
5. Screw the Holder to the Adhesive Mount using four of the small screws  
included with the mounting kit.  
You can now place your TomTom RIDER in the Holder. See this section:  
Adhesive Mount  
Use the Adhesive Mount if you are unable to use any of the other mounts, or  
if you want to place your TomTom RIDER in a position that is not possible  
using the other mounts.  
14  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
Attach this mount only to a part of your motorcycle that is strong enough to  
hold the mount, the Holder and your RIDER.  
Note: It is very difficult to remove the Adhesive Mount.  
Think carefully about where you want to attach the Adhesive Mount. Clean the  
position you have chosen thoroughly and make sure that you remove any  
grease or dirt.  
To use this mount, follow these steps:  
1. Attach the adhesive pad to the Adhesive Mount.  
2. Press and hold the Adhesive Mount in the position you have chosen.  
3. Screw the Holder to the Adhesive Mount using four of the small screws  
included with the mounting kit.  
You can now place your TomTom RIDER in the Holder. See this section:  
Placing your TomTom RIDER in the Holder  
1. Open the Holder and place the bottom edge of your TomTom RIDER into  
the Holder first.  
Make sure that the two teeth on the bottom of the Holder meet the two  
connections on your RIDER. If your RIDER is not placed in the Holder  
correctly, it may fall out while you are driving.  
2. Push your RIDER firmly into place.  
15  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
 
3. Close the Holder. Make sure that your RIDER is held firmly in place.  
You are now ready to make your first journey with your TomTom RIDER.  
Battery cable  
The battery cable can optionally be used to power and charge your  
TomTom RIDER from your motorcycle battery.  
Note: If you are unsure about setting up the battery cable, consult your local  
motorcycle garage.  
Connect the battery cable connector to the power connector on the holder.  
Connect the red battery cable to the switched positive 12 volt power supply  
on your motorcycle and the black battery cable to the ground supply on your  
motorcycle.  
Make sure that the battery cable is secured safely to your motorcycle. It must  
not hang from the frame or interfere with the motorcycle in any way. Make  
sure that it is also not in contact with any areas of the motorcycle that become  
hot and may melt the cable.  
Taking care of your TomTom RIDER  
It is important to take care of your RIDER and to clean it correctly.  
• Use the screen cloth provided to wipe the screen of your RIDER; do not use  
any liquid cleaners.  
• Only open the compartment that contains the memory card slot when you  
are indoors. Do not open the compartment when your RIDER is wet.  
• When carrying your RIDER, always use the RIDER case provided.  
• If your RIDER gets wet, dry it with a soft cloth.  
• Do not open the casing of your RIDER under any circumstances.  
• Do not use the memory card (SD card) with any device other than your  
RIDER. Other devices may damage the memory card.

only the driving menu is displayed. For more information, see this chapter:  
Note: Before you can plan a route in this way, TomTom RIDER must first  
locate your current position.  
Arrival times  
When you plan a route, your RIDER asks you if you need to arrive by a  
particular time:  
Tap YES to enter an arrival time.  
Your RIDER calculates your arrrival time and shows you whether you will  
arrive on time. Your arrival time is constantly recalculated during your journey.  
The status bar shows whether you will arrive on time or late, as shown below:  
You will arrive 55 minutes before the arrival time you entered.  
If the estimated arrival time is more than five minutes before the  
time you entered, it is shown in green.  
You will arrive 3 minutes before the arrival time you entered.  
If the estimated arrival time is less than 5 minutes before the  
time you entered, it is shown in yellow.

You will arrive 19 minutes late.  
If the estimated arrival time is later than the time you entered, it  
is shown in red.  
When would I enter an arrival time?  
If you have an appointment, you can enter the time of your appointment as  
your arrival time and you will know in advance if you are going to be on time.  
What are the other navigation options?

Finding alternative routes  
Finding alternative routes  
Once you have planned a route, you may want to change something about the  
route, without changing your destination.  
Why would I want to change the route?  
Maybe for one of these reasons:  
• You can see a roadblock or a line of traffic ahead.  
• You want to travel via a particular location, to pick someone up, stop for  
lunch or fill up with petrol.  
• You want to avoid a difficult junction or a road you don’t like.  
Tap Find alternative... in the Main Menu to change the route that is currently  
planned.  
Then tap one of the options below.  
Find  
alternative...  
Tap this button to calculate an alternative to the route already planned.  
Your RIDER will look for another route from your current location to your  
destination.  
Calculate  
alternative  
If you decide you would prefer to use the original route after all, tap  
Recalculate original.  
Why would I need to do this?  
Apart from the roads near your position and near your destination, the new  
route will use totally different roads to reach your destination. This is an easy  
way of calculating a totally different route.  
Tap this button if you can see a roadblock or a line of traffic ahead. You then  
have to choose how much of the route ahead you want to avoid.  
Choose from the different options: 100m, 500m, 2000m, 5000m. Your RIDER  
will recalculate your route avoiding the section of the route for the distance  
you selected.  
Avoid  
roadblock  
Don’t forget that once a new route is calculated, you may have to turn off the  
road you are on very soon.  
If the roadblock suddenly clears, tap Recalculate original to return to your  
original route.

location you chose.  
Using this button, you can only travel via one location. If you want to pass  
more than one, use an Itinerary. For more information, see Itinerary planning  
Tap this button to return to the original route without any deviations for  
roadblocks or to travel via particular locations.

Itinerary planning  
Itinerary planning  
What is an Itinerary?  
An Itinerary is a plan for a journey with more stops than just your final  
destination.  
An Itinerary is made up of the following items:  
• Destinations - places you want to stop  
• Waypoints - places you want to pass  
Here’s an example of an Itinerary:  
Destinations are shown with this symbol.  
Waypoints are shown with this symbol.  
When would I use an Itinerary?  
You could use an Itinerary for these kinds of trips:

distance and time to the first destination and not for the whole Itinerary.  
As soon as you start to use an Itinerary, the route is calculated from your  
current position. You do not need to set a departure point.  
When you have passed a waypoint or reached a destination, it is marked as  
visited.

Favourites  
What are Favourites?  
Favourites are places that you go often. You can create Favourites so that you  
don’t have to enter the address every time you want to navigate there.  
They don’t have to be places you like, just useful addresses.  
How can I create a Favourite?  
From the Main Menu, tap Add Favourite.  
Note: The button Add Favourite may not be shown on the first page of the  
Main Menu. Tap the arrow to open other pages in the Main Menu.  
You can then select the location of the Favourite from the list below.  
Give your Favourite a name that is easy to remember. Your RIDER will always  
suggest a name, usually the address of the Favourite. To enter the name, just  
start typing. You don’t have to delete the suggested name.  
You can set your Home location as a Favourite.  
Does it make sense to do this?  
Home  
If you want to change your Home location, you can create a Favourite of the  
Home location before you change it.

Manage POIs  
You can, for example, do the following:  
• Create your own POI categories and add POIs to them.  
• Set warnings when you get close to POIs.  
Why would I want to create my own POIs?  
A POI acts like a shortcut - once you have saved a location as a POI you never  
have to type the address of that POI again. But when you create a POI you can  
save more than just the location.  
• Phone number - when you create a POI, you can save a phone number with  
it.  
• Categories - when you create a POI you have to put it in a category.  
For example, you could create a category of POIs called ‘Favourite  
restaurants’. With each POI, save their phone number so that you can call  
them from your RIDER to reserve a table.  
How can I create my own POIs?  
1. Tap the screen to bring up the Main Menu.  
2. Tap Change preferences.  
3. Tap Manage POIs.

TomTom Traffic  
TomTom Traffic  
TomTom Traffic  
TomTom Traffic is a TomTom PLUS service that sends up-to-date traffic  
information to your RIDER. To use TomTom Traffic you must have a mobile  
phone with Bluetooth and a wireless data connection, for example, GPRS,  
EDGE, UMTS, CDMA.  
TomTom Traffic takes the most up-to-date information from the best local  
sources. Use the free trial to try TomTom Traffic. For more information, see  
the TomTom PLUS leaflet.  
Note: TomTom Traffic is not available in all countries or areas. Visit  
www.tomtom.com/plus to check availability in your country.  
Setting up TomTom Traffic  
To receive TomTom Traffic, first establish a connection between your mobile  
phone and your TomTom RIDER. See Connecting to your phone on page 45.  
Then do the following:  
1. Tap TomTom Traffic in the Main Menu.  
2. Tap Enable Traffic.  
Using Traffic  
61  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
 
TomTom Traffic will immediately try to retrieve the latest traffic information.  
Note: TomTom Traffic retrieves traffic information from TomTom using a  
wireless data connection on your mobile phone. You must be connected to  
your phone and you must have a wireless data subscription with your mobile  
network operator.  
For information about connecting to your phone, see Hands-free calling on  
Updating traffic information  
If you are using TomTom Traffic, there are two ways to update the traffic  
information:  
• Tap Update traffic info in the Traffic menu.  
• Set Traffic to be updated automatically at regular intervals.  
To do this, tap Change Traffic preferences in the Traffic menu. Select  
Automatically update traffic info while on route, then tap Done.  
You are then asked if you want to limit how often Traffic is updated.  
If you choose not to limit how often Traffic is updated, then TomTom will  
send updated traffic information to your RIDER as soon as it is available.  
If you choose to limit how often Traffic is updated, you are asked to set a  
time.  
TomTom saves this time limit and sends new traffic information at the  
interval you set. If there is no new traffic information, then TomTom will not  
send any information to your RIDER. This saves you money by not using  
your wireless data connection when there is no new information.  
Using traffic information  
Having up-to-date traffic information can help you to reduce your journey  
time.  
Whenever you plan a route, the latest traffic updated you received from  
TomTom is taken into account by your RIDER when it plans the route.  
Your RIDER can also recalculate your route if the traffic situation changes after  
you start a journey:  
1. Tap Change Traffic preferences in the Traffic menu.  
2. Select Automatically optimise route after every update.  
After your RIDER gets new traffic information, it will automatically optimise  
your route.  
Note: The best route may be the same as the route originally planned.

How does navigation work?  
How does navigation work?  
Global Positioning System (GPS)  
In order to navigate you to your destination, your TomTom RIDER must know  
where you are now. To find your current position, your TomTom RIDER uses  
the Global Positioning System (GPS). GPS is available for free and without  
subscription.  
The GPS uses satellites to transmit signals to GPS receivers. Your  
TomTom RIDER has a built-in GPS receiver. Using the GPS signal, your  
TomTom RIDER can work out where you are and how fast you are going. GPS  
signals work in all weather, anywhere in the world.  
Note: Your TomTom RIDER does not transmit your position, so others cannot  
use it to track you while you are driving. You can however send your position  
to TomTom Buddies. For more information, visit www.tomtom.com/plus  
Maps  
Once your RIDER knows where you are and you have told it where you want  
to go, it uses the digital map on the memory card or hard disk to work out the  
best route to your destination.

Battery notes  
Battery notes  
It takes about 2 hours to charge the battery completely.  
Note: Your TomTom RIDER uses a small amount of battery power to  
maintain its state when you switch it off. If you do not charge it for a  
prolonged period of time then you will lose this state and your  
TomTom RIDER will re-start. Your settings will however, be maintained.
