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.
