GPS receiver
The GPS receiver is located in the top of the device.
When using the receiver, from an upright position,
move the device to an angle of about 45 degrees,
with an unobstructed view of the sky.
Establishing a
GPS connection
may take from a
couple of
seconds to
several minutes.
Establishing a
GPS connection
in the car may
take longer.
The GPS receiver draws its power from the device
battery. Using the GPS receiver may drain the
battery faster.
About satellite signals
If your device cannot find the satellite signal,
consider the following:
If you are indoors, go outdoors to receive a better
signal.
If you are outdoors, move to a more open space.
Ensure that
your hand does
not cover the
GPS antenna of
your device.
If the weather
conditions are bad, the signal strength may be
affected.
If the power saver turns on while the device is
attempting to establish a GPS connection, the
attempt is interrupted.
Establishing a GPS connection may take from a
couple of seconds to several minutes.
