Move away from electronic devices. Radios, entertainment devices, and other electronic devices may generate interfering signals that may prevent GPS receiver operation if they are in close proximity to the phone. Move your phone away from such devices when using the GPS-Enabled feature.

Stand still. If possible, stand still until your phone is finished determining your location. Moving your phone at a walking pace while your phone is calculating your approximate location may substantially decrease GPS performance.

In a car. When using the GPS Enabled feature in a car, position your phone so that the GPS antenna has good access to GPS signals through the car’s windows. Typically, the GPS antenna has best access to GPS signals in a car when placed near a window.

Note: Although moving your phone at a walking

pace decreases GPS performance, moving it at the speed of a moving car does not.

Stay in SouthernLINC Wireless network coverage. The SouthernLINC Wireless network will provide your phone with information that helps determine your location more quickly and accurately.
