Installing USA maps onto TT XL for imbecile

Sun Mar 23, 2014 12:29 pm

I have a TomTom XL without SD card and have downloaded USA maps and now I haven't a clue how to make them work. What I have read involves much jargon. Is there a step by step guide for the ignorant? The file I have is a RAR file. If you can point me in the right direction I would much appreciate it.
