Location Services (GPS & AGPS)

GPS & AGPS

The following information is applicable to Motorola
mobile devices that provide location based (GPS
and/or AGPS) functionality.
Your mobile device can use

Global Positioning

System

(GPS) signals for location-based applications.

GPS uses satellites controlled by the U.S.
government that are subject to changes
implemented in accordance with the Department of
Defense policy and the Federal Radio Navigation
Plan. These changes may affect the performance of
location technology on your mobile device.
Your mobile device can also use

Assisted Global

Positioning System

(AGPS), which obtains

information from the cellular network to improve
GPS performance. AGPS uses your wireless service
provider's network and therefore airtime, data
charges, and/or additional charges may apply in
accordance with your service plan. Contact your
wireless service provider for details.

Your Location

Location-based information includes information
that can be used to determine the approximate
location of a mobile device. Mobile devices which are
connected to a wireless network transmit
location-based information. Devices enabled with
GPS or AGPS technology also transmit
location-based information. Additionally, if you use
applications that require location-based information
(e.g. driving directions), such applications transmit
location-based information. This location-based

information may be shared with third parties,
including your wireless service provider, applications
providers, Motorola, and other third parties providing
services.

Emergency Calls

When you make an emergency call, the cellular
network may activate the AGPS technology in your
mobile device to tell the emergency responders your
approximate location.
AGPS has limitations and might not work in your
area
. Therefore:
Always tell the emergency responder your location

to the best of your ability; and

Remain on the phone for as long as the

emergency responder instructs you.

Navigation

Navigation

The following information is applicable to Motorola
mobile devices that provide navigation features.
When using navigation features, note that mapping
information, directions and other navigational data
may contain inaccurate or incomplete data. In some
countries, complete information may not be
available. Therefore, you should visually confirm that
the navigational instructions are consistent with
what you see. All drivers should pay attention to road
conditions, closures, traffic, and all other factors that
may impact driving. Always obey posted road signs.
