How can i get rid of the German language which came with tomtom. How do I get English ???

You will have to check 2 settings. First one. Tap on the screen. Tap on change preferences. Tap on the arrow 3 times. You should be on page: Preferences 4 of 6 by now. Tap on change language. Tap on English US. Tap on Yes.

Since its in german.. You may need to use google translate to translate the german to english just so you know what screens in german match with the screens listed above.

See my other post on this subject:

Basically: 'Change preference' (look for Spanner image Icon) -> Scroll right Arrow until 'Change language' (look for Flags image Icon) -> Select English -> Select an English Voice
Hope it helps. Let me know how you go and good luck.

Thanks.

In the menu, you should find the settings for language.

Now, If you don't speak German, this can be a problem.

If you use your computer to translate, you can do it.

Go to http://babelfish.yahoo.com/ and select the languages as required (German to English). Enter the commands you see on the TomTom, and navigate that was until you see the language settings.

The icons are the same even though the language is german
Start tom tom:
tap bottom right icon to acknowledge warning
once map comes up tap map anywhere
tap on wrench icon to enter setup
tap on the triangle pointing right 5 times or until you see the three flag icon
tap on three flag icon english us should be 8 choices down
have fun, below is the manual for youtr tt1
