The internal GPS receiver takes its power from the device 
battery. Using the GPS receiver may drain the battery 
faster.
You can also pair a compatible GPS receiver with your 
device using Bluetooth wireless technology.
About satellite signals
If your device cannot find the satellite signal, consider the 
following:
•
Go outdoors to receive a better signal.
•
If you are outdoors, move to a more open space.
•
Check that your hand does not cover the internal 
receiver of your Nokia N810 Internet Tablet. For the 
location of the receiver, see ‘GPS receiver’, p. 41.
•
Signal strength may be affected by bad weather 
conditions.
•
Establishing a GPS connection may take from a couple 
of seconds to several minutes. Establishing a GPS 
connection in a car may take longer.
