To disable the security lock on TOM TOM GPS devices, proceed as follows:

In the main menu, click on "modify preferences"
Then, access the "Security Preferences" menu.
Uncheck the box "Hide most menu options while driving"

And there you go.

Thank you very much for the information, I was bothered for a long time and I couldn't access the preferences menu to change it. It's resolved, thank you!!!

thank you
but I have the manual and of course the device is not 'stolen'
I searched but couldn't find a section on "security lock"
so I'm stuck with this intermittent issue
sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't

Good evening, I just had the same problem so I turned off my GPS and turned it back on half an hour later and then I was able to enter a new address.

A big thank you to everyone. I was able to unlock my husband remotely, panicking in Paris!

However, this doesn't explain why this function was activated when we didn't even know how to access the security preferences menu!

Have a good day dear community.

Security helps protect the GPS against theft.
For how to do this: see your MANUAL.
If you have neither, it has been stolen.

Re-read the charter, it can help you understand "how it works."

Use the security lock
To make driving with your TomTom ONE even safer, activate the
Security Lock in the Preferences menu.
You can choose to activate the security lock. In this case, only
a few buttons and features will be available while you
drive. When you stop, all buttons and features will be
available again.
You can also choose to disable the map display.
For more information, see Security Lock on page 32.

page 32

Security Lock
Touch this button to set your security preferences:
* Security Lock
* Disable map mode
Security Lock
When you activate the security lock, you can no longer access all
the buttons and features of your ONE while you drive.
The main menu only displays the buttons that can be useful to you
while driving.
As soon as your car stops, you can access all the buttons
and features again.
Disable map mode
When you disable map mode, instead of seeing your position on the map in
Driving mode, you will only see the next instruction.
When you touch this button, you need to specify when the map should be
disabled. Here are the three options:
* Always - you will only see the next instruction and the arrows. The
map will never be displayed.
* At a certain speed - allows you to set the speed at which the map
will need to be disabled. When you drive fast, the map can distract you.
* Never: the map is always active.

I have the same problem with the security lock, even the TomTom GPS vendors don't know how to unlock it.
Do you know how to do it?
