TomTom Go300 & Bluetooth

[snorty]

Hi

I am new to TomTom & have just purchased Go300.

Question: If I have a Bluetooth enabled mobile phone, can it be used in conjuction with the TomTom 300 for "hands free"

[jimbokb]

In A word NO. TTG 300 does not support hands free.

The bluetooth on the 300 is for using Tomtom Plus services ie downloads & traffic.

OK

Thanks

The 300 does not have hands free, but the 700 does. The 300 still functions with BT though, just not in this capacity.

[snorty]

Thanks for that.

Allowing for the fact that I am a complete dorf regarding Sat Nav, what do you mean " still functions with BT though"

Regards

[DavidHobbs]

The 300 has a built in BT connection, but it doesn't function as a hands free device. You still have to tap the screen, etc.

[snorty]

Sorry about this but do you mean that if a call comes in on my (Bluetooth)mobile, I can answer it by tapping the screen etc

I dont regard myself as thick, but as i said, I am new to Sat Nav

Regards

Hi snorty,

You can’t use the Bluetooth on a GO 300 for hands free operation of the phone, for that you need either a GO 500 or 700.

However, if you pair your GO 300 with a Bluetooth phone and you subscribe to the Plus services from TomTom you could get Traffic info, weather info, etc.

Please see the TomTom Plus website for further information!

Regards,
