Mount A Tomtom One Xl

A TomTom One XL is a global positioning system, or GPS. A GPS uses satellite technology to track a user's position and provide him with directions to get to his destination. For easier accessibility, a TomTom One XL can be mounted on the dashboard or windshield of a vehicle. This makes it easier for the driver to see and hear the maps and directions that are being visually displayed and announced by the unit.


Instructions


1. Clean the area where you are mounting the TomTom One XL. You can mount the GPS unit either to the windshield or the dashboard. Spray a glass-cleaning product on the windshield or use a vehicle-dashboard-cleaning product to clean the dashboard, and wipe the surface dry with paper towels.


2. Remove the backing from one side of the TomTom adhesive disk. The adhesive disk has sticky residue on both sides. It doesn't matter which side you use first.


3. Stick the adhesive side of the disk to the back of the TomTom One XL's holder or docking station. There is a circular area that holds the disk. Ensure the adhesive disk is securely stuck to the back of the holder or docking station.


4. Remove the backing from the other side of the adhesive tape. Stick the disk on the TomTom One XL's cradle onto your windshield or dashboard. Position it so the holder arm is facing upward. This is where you will place the TomTom. Press down firmly so the holder is stuck to the windshield.


5. Attempt to turn or twist the holder to the left and right. This ensures it is secure.


6. Connect the TomTom One XL onto the holder. The slot on the back of the TomTom One XL unit fits into the holder.


7. Move the TomTom One XL screen up or down based on your viewing preference. The arm on the holder move the TomTom.


8. Insert the power adapter jack into the power adapter outlet on the bottom of the device. Plug the other end of the power adapter into your vehicle's cigarette lighter outlet. Once the car is powered on, the device will receive power and be ready to use.
