The internal GPS receiver takes its power from the device
battery. Using the GPS receiver may drain the battery
faster.
You can also pair a compatible GPS receiver with your
device using Bluetooth wireless technology.

Tips on creating a GPS connection

If your device cannot find the satellite signal, consider the
following:
•
If you are indoors, go outdoors to receive a better
signal.
• If you are outdoors, move to a more open space.
•
Ensure that your hand does not cover the internal
receiver of your Nokia N810 Internet Tablet. For the
location of the receiver, see 'GPS receiver', p. 42.
•
Signal strength may be affected by bad weather
conditions.
• Establishing a GPS connection may take from a couple
of seconds to several minutes. Establishing a GPS
connection in a car may take longer.
•
Some vehicles have tinted (athermic) windows, which
may block the satelllite signals.
