GPS Applications
GPS applications allow you to achieve real-time,
GPS-enabled, turn-by-turn navigation and to access local
searches based on a variety of category parameters.
To receive better GPS signals, avoid using your device in the
following conditions:
• inside a building or between buildings
• in a tunnel or underground passage
• in poor weather
• around high-voltage or electromagnetic fields
• in a vehicle with tinted windows
Global GPS turn-by-turn navigation, mapping, and Point of
Interest content is available for three continents, including
North America (U.S., Canada, and Mexico), Western Europe,
and China, where wireless coverage is available.
Important! If you touch or cover the internal GPS antenna
while using GPS services, it may impede the GPS
signal resulting in the GPS services not working in
an optimal manner. Refer to the following diagram
to locate the approximate location of the internal
GPS antenna.
