Switching on
Using
your
TomTom
Rider
Press and hold the On/Off button for 2 seconds, or
until your TomTom Rider starts.
The first time you switch on your TomTom Rider, it
may take up to 20 seconds to start. To switch off
your TomTom Rider, press and hold the On/Off but-
ton for 2 seconds.
Before you use your Rider for the first time, it's a
good idea to charge it fully.
The battery in your TomTom Rider navigation
device charges when you connect it to the home
charger or to your computer.
Note: You should plug the USB connector directly into
a USB port on your computer and not into a USB hub
or USB port on a keyboard or monitor.
Setting up
First, you have to answer a few questions to set up
your device. Answer the questions by tapping the
screen. You will use the touchscreen for everything
you do with your TomTom Rider.
Locating your current position
Your TomTom Rider must be outside to be able to
locate your current position. Make sure that you are
in an open place without tall buildings or trees
around you.
The first time you start your Rider, it can take a few
minutes for the device to find your current position.
In the future, your position will be found much
faster, normally within a few seconds.
Your Rider does not transmit your location, so oth-
ers cannot use it to track you while you are driving.
Using your TomTom Rider
Mounting your navigation device
Attach the RAM™ mount kit to your motorcycle as
shown on the Installation Poster, then place your
Rider in the holder. When you are attaching the
mount kit to your motorcycle, follow these guide-
lines:
• If you are unsure about attaching the mount kit
yourself, ask a professional to fit it for you.
• Make sure that the mount kit does not interfere
with any of the controls on the motorcycle.
• Always use the correct tools. If you use unsuita-
ble tools, you may damage or break the mount
kit.
• Do not overtighten nuts. You may crack parts of
the mount kit or damage your handlebars if you
overtighten the nuts.
• If you are using the u-bolt, don't forget to put the
rubber caps provided over the exposed threads.
Damage due to modifications, improper installa-
tion, road hazards or accident, are not covered. Nei-
ther RAM nor TomTom shall be liable for any injury,
loss, or damage, direct or consequential, arising out
of improper installation, or inability to use product.
Before use, the user shall determine the suitability
of the product for its intended use. The user
assumes all risk and liability, whatsoever, in con-
nection with the mount.
