What is GPS?
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a
satellite-based navigation system made up of
a network of 24 satellites placed into orbit by
the U.S. Department of Defense.
GPS was originally intended for military
applications, but in the 1980s, the government
made the system available for civilian use.
GPS works in any weather conditions,
anywhere in the world, 24 hours a day.
There are no subscription fees or setup
charges to use GPS.

About satellite signals
Your unit must acquire satellite signals to
operate. If you are indoors, near tall buildings
or trees, or in a parking garage, the unit
cannot acquire satellites.
Acquiring satellite signals
Before the unit can find your current location
and navigate a route, you must do the
following:
1. Go outside to an area free from tall
obstructions.
2. Turn on the unit.
Acquiring satellite signals can take a few
minutes.
