GPS receiver

The GPS receiver is

the receiver, slide the
numeric keypad open
and hold the device
upright in your hand at
an angle of about 45
degrees, with a clear
view of the sky.
Establishing a GPS connection may take from a couple of
seconds to several minutes. Establishing a GPS connection
in the car may take longer.
The GPS receiver takes its power from the battery. Using

About satellite signals

If your device cannot find the satellite signal, consider the
following:
• If you are indoors, go outdoors to receive a better
signal.
• If the numeric keypad slide is closed, open it.
• If you are outdoors, move to a more open space.
• Check that your hand does not cover the GPS antenna
of your device. For the location of the antenna, see
"GPS receiver", p. 67.
• If the weather conditions are bad, in such a case the
signal strength may also be affected.
• Establishing a GPS connection may take from a couple
of seconds to several minutes.

Satellite status

To check how many satellites your device has found, and
whether your device is receiving satellite signals, press
and select Tools > Connectivity
Options > Satellite status. If your device has found
satellites, a bar for each satellite is shown in the satellite
info view. The longer the bar, the stronger the satellite
signal. When your device has received enough data from
the satellite signal to calculate the coordinates of your
location, the bar turns black.
