5. Tips on Using GPS

In order to get information for navigation, devices are equipped with a GPS receiver that uses signals from satellites
orbiting the earth. If this is your first GPS device, the following tips will help you get started.

 When using GPS, make sure you are outside with a clear view of the sky and no buildings or trees are

in the way.

 Remain stationary to acquire the initial GPS signal before you start your journey.

 The time to acquire the first GPS signal of the day may take up to 2-3 minutes, so please be patient.

 Keeping your device powered on will help make getting subsequent GPS signals much faster during

that same day.

6. Launching Scout

The Scout application that resides within your device requires a subscription from your wireless carrier and means
of accessing the public Internet. Scout comes pre-loaded on your device.

1. On the device’s Main Menu, choose the Scout application.
