|
|
Hi
I have a TomTom Via 125 and couple of days ago it wanted a software update and using it over the last couple of days I've noticed a new icon
It's a red triangle with a few wavey lines in it....always seems to sit on the top left of the screen and I can't seem to find out what it means.
Sorry for being a vague....can anyone help

I agree with susan, erm, I mean sussamb
Red triangle means 'warning'. Wavy lines could be toxic gas, the sea or maybe even fog.

Weather conditions for TomTom maps in various countries is licenced to 3rd party providers by TomTom.
If there are errors, it's not TomTom's fault. _________________ David |

Also it's the weather in the area so there might be fog near you but not necessarily exactly where you are. |

Shield up, Mr, Sulu. The star ship TomTom must be defended against all attackers at all times. |

No, of course I don't. Just like a bit of banter.  |

But as Eric Morecambe would say "They are showing all the right icons, but not necessarily in the right places." _________________ Dennis

Perhaps what I should have said is "Well, there you go. That's a TT for you."  |
