Special Note Regarding Driving in California, Minnesota and Other States
California Vehicle Code Section 26708 which applies to those driving within the State of California
restricts the mounting of a navigation device on the windshield to a seven-inch square in the lower
corner of the windshield farthest removed from the driver or in a five-inch square in the lower
corner of the windshield nearest to the driver and outside of an airbag deployment zone, if the
system is used only for door-to-door navigation while the motor vehicle is being operated. Drivers in
California should not mount the device on their side or rear windows.
Minnesota State Legislature Statutes Section 169.71, subdivision 1, section 2 restricts any person
driving within the State of Minnesota from driving with a device suspended between the driver and
the windshield.
Many other states have enacted laws which restrict the placement of any object or material on the
windshield, side or rear window that obstructs a driver's clear view of the road. It is incumbent upon
the driver to be aware of all applicable laws and to place the device in such a manner that will not
interfere with his/her driving.
TomTom Inc. bears no responsibility for and hereby disclaims all liability for any fines, penalties or
damage incurred by a driver for violations of the law. While driving in any state with windshield
mounting restrictions, TomTom recommends using the supplied Adhesive Mounting Disk or
purchasing an alternative mounting system (e.g. dashboard or air vents). See tomtom.com for more
information about these mounting options.

This GPS Navigation System is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not
to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) of the U.S. Government, Industry Canada of the Canadian
Government (IC).
The SAR limit recommended by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the U.S.
Government, Industry Canada of the Canadian Government (IC) is 1.6W/kg averaged over 1 gram of
tissue for the body (4.0 W/kg averaged over 10 grams of tissue for the extremities - hands, wrists,
ankles and feet). Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions specified by FCC/IC
with the device transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands.
FCC information for the user
THE DEVICE COMPLIES WITH PART 15 OF THE FCC RULES
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Statement
This equipment radiates radio frequency energy and if not used properly - that is, in strict
accordance with the instructions in this manual - may cause interference to radio communications
and television reception.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful
interference and (2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may
cause undesired operation of the device.
This device has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,
pursuant to part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can
radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions,
may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful
interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off
and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following
measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver
is connected.
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void
the user's authority to operate the equipment.
Important
This equipment was tested for FCC compliance under conditions that included the use of shielded
cables and connectors between it and the peripherals. It is important that you use shielded cable
and connectors to reduce the possibility of causing radio and television interference. Shielded
cables, suitable for the product range, can be obtained from an authorized dealer. If the user
modifies the equipment or its peripherals in any way, and these modifications are not approved by
TomTom, the FCC may withdraw the user’s right to operate the equipment. For customers in the
USA, the following booklet prepared by the Federal Communications Commission may be of help:
"How to Identify and Resolve Radio-TV Interference Problems". This booklet is available from the US
