You can use applications such as GPS data to find out your location, or measure

distances and coordinates. These applications require a GPS connection.

Your device does not have an internal GPS antenna. To use applications that require

a GPS connection, use a compatible GPS receiver (accessory sold separately). Use

Bluetooth connectivity to connect to the GPS receiver.

You can also use network-based positioning with your device.

You can use the mobile network to find out your current location, even indoors. This

is faster but less accurate than with GPS, and you cannot use the location as a

starting point for navigation.

To use the mobile network for positioning, in the device settings, select the

connect to the GPS receiver. To start using a compatible GPS receiver with Bluetooth

coordinates may vary by region.

of location data can be affected by adjustments to GPS satellites made by the United
