Limited GPS reception
Interruptions or disturbances of GPS reception while driving for several kilometres,
may cause impaired function. No or faulty GPS reception may occur:
–
between tall buildings
–
in car parks, tunnels or under bridges
–
in forests or on tree-lined roads
–
during rainstorms and thunderstorms
–
in the event of unfavourable satellite constellations in conjunction with the GPS
antenna installation position (in this case reception may be disrupted over a longer
period of time)
–
in alpine valleys.
The system is capable of functioning, even with poor GPS reception, but the accuracy
of the positioning may be limited.
Sufficient GPS reception should be available for about 95% of travel time with a
properly installed GPS antenna. Unfavourable positioning of the GPS antenna may
account for more frequent disruptions to reception. If this should be the case, contact
the workshop responsible for installation of your VDO Dayton device. The navigation
system can compensate for GPS reception problems for several minutes or kilometres
without functional impairment.
In order to avoid interference or malfunctioning of the system, the GPS antenna must
not be covered by any objects.
Stickers on the vehicle windscreen near the GPS antenna may also interfere with reception.
