Using Maps - Samsung Rugby Smart SGH-I847 User Manual

Important! Before using Google Maps you must have an active
data connection. The Maps application does not
cover every country or city.
Enabling a Location Source
Before you use Google Maps and find your location or search
for places of interest, you must enable a location source. To
enable the location source you must enable the wireless
network, or enable the GPS satellites.
1. From the Home screen, tap
Location and security.
2. Tap the Use GPS satellites field. A green checkmark will
display next to the field.
Note: Selecting Use GPS satellites allows you to locate places
of interest at the street-level. However, this also requires
a clear view of the sky and uses more battery power.
To receive better GPS signals, avoid using your device in the
following conditions:
• inside a building or between buildings
• in a tunnel or underground passage
Settings
• in poor weather
• around high-voltage or electromagnetic fields
• in a vehicle with tinted windows
