Gps; Using Gps - Sony Ericsson ELM Extended User Manual

GPS

Your phone has a GPS receiver that uses satellite signals to calculate your location. Some
GPS features use the Internet. Data rates and charges may apply.
If you cannot use some GPS features, see I cannot use Internet-based services on page 72.

Using GPS

Your location can be found when you have a clear view of the sky. If your location is not
found after a few minutes, move to another location. To help the search, stand still and do
not cover the GPS antenna.
The first time you use the GPS it may take up to 10 minutes before your location is found.
