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 tens
of minutes.
Establishing a GPS
connection in the
car, in bad weather
conditions, or in a
challenging geographical environment 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.
See "GPS
receiver", p. 53.
● 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 tens of minutes.
