■ About GPS
Your device has an internal GPS receiver. 
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is operated by the government of the United States, 
which is solely responsible for its accuracy and maintenance. The accuracy of location data 
can be affected by adjustments to GPS satellites made by the United States government and 
is subject to change with the United States Department of Defense civil GPS policy and the 
Federal Radionavigation Plan. Accuracy can also be affected by poor satellite geometry. 
Availability and quality of GPS signals may be affected by your location, buildings, natural 
obstacles, and weather conditions. The GPS receiver should only be used outdoors to allow 
reception of GPS signals.
Any GPS should not be used for precise location measurement, and you should never rely 
solely on location data from the GPS receiver and cellular radio networks for positioning or 
navigation.
■ Assisted GPS
Your device supports Assisted GPS (A-GPS, network service). 
Assisted GPS (A-GPS) is used to retrieve assistance data over a packet data connection, 
which assists in calculating the coordinates of your current location when your device is 
receiving signals from satellites. 
Contact your service provider for the correct internet access point and charges 
related to the service.
Your device is preconfigured to use the Nokia A-GPS service, if no service 
provider-specific A-GPS settings are available. The assistance data is retrieved 
from the Nokia A-GPS service server only when needed.
To use A-GPS, you must have a packet data internet access point defined. See 
Positioning settings p. 25.
