To triangulate the location information correctly, bring your camera to an open area, and turn on the
camera again.

The margin of error can be up to several-hundred meters depending on surrounding buildings, weak
GPS signals, etc.

[Date & Time Setting] is not set, or set time is shifted greatly. Set the date and time correctly.
The term of validity of GPS assist data has expired. Update GPS assist data.
As the positions of GPS satellites vary constantly, it may take longer to determine the location or the
receiver may not be able to determine the location at all, depending on the location and time you use
the camera.
“GPS” is a system for determining geographic location by triangulating radio signals from GPS
satellites. Avoid using the camera in places where radio signals are blocked or reflected, such as a
shadowy place surrounded by buildings or trees, etc. Use the camera in open sky environments.
