Operation Notice of GPS

GPS signal reception can be affected by the location of satellites,
tall buildings, tunnels, bridges, etc. If the GPSRD is not
receiving a signal, you will need to change your location until a
signal is received.

The GPSRD will only receive satellite broadcasts from satellites
that have an elevation above the horizon of 5 degrees or more.

For optimal GPS signal reception the GPSRD should be
mounted on the lower part of the windshield.

The latitude, longitude, and altitude indications on the display
are based on WGS-84 Datum, and usable in North America and
Canada only. These indications may not be accurate in other
areas, and the altitude indication may not appear even in North
America and Canada depending on the signal conditions from
GPS satellites.
