Looking at traffic on your route

Information about traffic incidents on your route is shown in the route bar on the right-hand side of the map.

The route bar tells you about traffic delays while you are driving, using symbols to show you where

each traffic incident is located on your route.

Note: If your TomTom navigation app isn't receiving any traffic information, a symbol showing traffic with a cross appears underneath the arrival information panel.

Note : To make the route bar more readable some incidents may not be shown. These incidents will always be of minor importance and only cause short delays.

To get more information about an incident, select an incident in the route bar. The map opens zoomed in on the incident and a pop-up opens showing detailed information about the traffic incident.

The information shown includes:

 The type of traffic incident – general, accident, roadwork, lane closure or weather such as heavy rain or snow.

 The severity of the incident - slow traffic, traffic lining up or stationary traffic.

 The delay time.

 The length of the incident.

For a complete list of incident types, see Traffic incidents .

Time-dependent speed limits

Some speed limits change depending on the time of day. For example, you may see the speed limit near schools decrease to 40 km/h or 25 mph in the morning from 08:00 a.m. - 09:00 a.m. and in the afternoon from 3:00 p.m. - 4:00 p.m. Where possible, the speed limit shown in the speed panel changes to show these variable speed limits.

Some speed limits change depending on driving conditions. For example, the speed limit will decrease if there is heavy traffic, or the weather conditions are bad. These variable speed limits are not shown in the speed panel. The speed shown in the speed panel is the maximum speed limit allowed in good driving conditions.

Important : The speed limit shown in the speed panel is only an indication. You must always obey the actual speed limit for the road you are on and the conditions you are driving in.

About ZIP codes

You can search using a ZIP code to get closer to the area in which you want to find an address or

POI.

When you search using a ZIP code, your results include all the streets in a city district, the whole town, or the towns and villages within that ZIP code area.

Note : If you search using a ZIP code you will not get a specific address in your results.

You do not have to use the state or province postal abbreviation or first change the state or province because this is included in the ZIP code.

For example, a search for York in the whole map returns a long list of possible results. Adding a space followed by the ZIP code narrows the results down to the York that you are looking for.

About mapcodes

In countries where roads and houses have no names or addresses, you can use a mapcode instead. A mapcode represents a location.

Every location on Earth, including those in the sea, like islands and oil rigs, can be represented by a mapcode. Mapcodes are short, and easy to recognize, remember and communicate. They are precise to a few meters, which is good enough for every-day use.

Go to mapcode.com

for instructions on how to find the mapcode for a location.

Mapcodes are more precise and more flexible than the address on a business card. You can choose a location that you want to associate with your address, for example, the main entrance or the entrance to a parking lot.

Voice control (Speak & Go)

About voice control

Note : Voice control is only available when your TomTom BRIDGE is in the dock and the microphone is connected.

Instead of selecting items on the screen to control your TomTom BRIDGE, you can use your voice to control your TomTom navigation app.

You can use voice control to control many of the navigation features on your TomTom navigation app or to change settings. For example, you can change the screen to day colors or decrease the volume just by using your voice.

Voice control is active in the map view, the guidance view, and the voice control screen.

Important : Voice control requires a voice that speaks street names. When there is no voice that speaks street names installed and selected on your TomTom BRIDGE, this feature is not available.

To select a voice that reads aloud street names, select Voices in the Settings menu, then select

Choose a voice and select a Computer voice that reads aloud street names.

Starting voice control

In map view or guidance view, say the wake-up phrase to start voice control. The wake-up phrase is

"Hello, TomTom".

Tip

: Voice control is off by default. You can turn the wake-up phrase on or off in the settings

menu.

Alternatively, you can select Voice Control in the Main Menu:

When voice control is ready to use, you see the voice control screen and your TomTom navigation app says "I'm listening." Speak when you hear the beep.

Note

: If the volume control is set to 20% or lower, the volume automatically changes to 50% when

you start voice control.

The status of voice control on your TomTom navigation app. You can speak when your TomTom navigation app says "I'm listening" and you see the microphone symbol in the left corner.

The status message tells you if voice control cannot understand what you said and gives you instructions about using voice control. At the same time, voice control reads aloud the message.

The microphone symbol shows you when you can speak:

 This symbol shows you that voice control is ready to listen. Speak when you hear the beep.

 This symbol shows you that voice control is busy.

The microphone monitor. While you are speaking the microphone monitor shows how well voice control can hear your voice:



A light blue bar means voice control can hear your voice.

A red bar means your voice is too loud for voice control to recognize individual words.

A dark blue bar means your voice is too quiet for voice control to recognize individual words.

Some tips for using voice control

You can help your TomTom navigation app understand what you are saying by following these tips:

 Mount your TomTom navigation app about an arm's length in front of you, away from speakers or air vents.

 Reduce background noise such as voices or the radio. If there is excessive road noise, you may need to speak in the direction of the microphone.

 Speak fluently and naturally as though speaking to a friend.

 When saying an address, try not to pause between parts of the address or add extra words.

 Say "number one" or "number two" and not "one " or "two" when selecting an item from a list such as a house number.

 Try not to correct mistakes, for example "Number four, oh I mean number five."

Important : Voice control on your TomTom navigation app is specifically for native speakers of the selected language who have a neutral accent. If you have a strong local or foreign accent, voice control may not understand everything that you say.
