Establishing a GPS connection may take
from a couple of seconds to several
minutes. Establishing a GPS connection in
a vehicle may take longer.
The GPS receiver draws its power from the
device battery. Using GPS may drain the
battery faster.
Position requests
You may receive a request from a network
service to receive your position
information. Service providers may offer

weather or traffic conditions, based on

displayed. Select
Accept
to allow your
position information to be sent or
Reject

your current location, and traveling
information, such as the approximate

Route guidance
Route guidance shows the straightest
route and the shortest distance to the
destination, measured in a straight line. It
ignores any obstacles on the route, such
as buildings and natural obstacles, or
differences in altitude. Route guidance is
active only when you move. Start the
route guidance outdoors to receive the
necessary information from the satellites.
