Your vmax361 uses GPS (Global Positioning
Satellite) technology to show you exactly
where you are in relation to its stored
maps. In some areas, the GPS signal may
vary in strength. Too few signals can affect
the accuracy and even slow the update
time of your Navigation screen. The ‘GPS
Info’ screen tells you this and more.
