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 tap 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.
