Use the GPS system cautiously. Users shall be liable for any
damages resulting from negligent operation of the system.
Do not leave your phone in a vehicle or expose the phone to
direct sunlight to avoid overheating the battery, which could
pose damage to the phone or risk to the vehicle.
The GPS signal cannot pass through solid non-transparent
objects. Signal reception may be affected by obstructions such
as high-rise buildings, tunnels, bridges, forests, weather (rainy or
cloudy days), etc. If the vehicle's visor contains metal, it will be
difficult for the GPS signal to pass through.
Other nearby wireless communication products (such as mobile
phones or radar-detecting devices) may interfere with the
satellite signal, resulting in unstable signal reception.
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is built and operated by the
US Defense Department. The Department is responsible for the
accuracy and maintenance of the system. Any changes that the
Department makes may affect the accuracy and function of the
GPS system.

11.2 Downloading Location Data via QuickGPS

Before using your phone for GPS navigation, open QuickGPS to
download ephemeris data (current satellite position and timing
information). QuickGPS significantly speeds up the time for
determining your GPS position. QuickGPS downloads ephemeris
data from Web servers, instead of from satellites, using your phone's
Internet connection via Wi-Fi, ActiveSync or GPRS/3G.
1. Tap Start > Tools > QuickGPS.
2. Tap Download on the QuickGPS screen. When the download is
complete, QuickGPS closes.
