Introduction

1. Introduction

With the Nokia Bluetooth GPS Module you can determine
your current position and direction easily. The GPS module
uses Bluetooth wireless technology to communicate
positioning information to a compatible device, such as a
mobile phone or PC.

To use the GPS module, you need a compatible software
application on the device that you connect to it.

Read this user guide carefully before using the GPS module.
Also read the user guide for the device that you connect to
the module.

Keep all accessories and enhancements out of reach of
small children.

■ Water-resistance

You can use this device in the rain, but do not submerge it in
water.

Introduction

If the device has been exposed to sweat or salt water, wipe
it immediately with freshwater to avoid corrosion. The
device must be carefully wiped dry.

■ Bluetooth wireless technology

Bluetooth wireless technology allows you to connect
compatible devices without cables. The GPS module and a
compatible device do not need to be in line of sight, but
they should be within 10 meters (33 feet) of each other.
Connections may be subject to interference from
obstructions, such as walls, or other electronic devices.

The GPS module complies with the Bluetooth Specification

2.0 + EDR that supports the Serial Port Profile 1.1. Check
with the manufacturers of other devices to determine their
compatibility with this device.

There may be restrictions on using Bluetooth technology in
some locations. Check with your local authorities or service
provider.

Introduction

■ About the GPS

The GPS (Global Positioning System) is a worldwide
satellite-based radio navigation system.

The GPS module can calculate its location to an accuracy of
10 meters (33 feet). The accuracy depends on the number of
GPS satellites to which the GPS module is in a line of sight.
In optimal conditions, the accuracy may be within a few
meters.

If you stand still, GPS cannot detect which way you are
facing because it determines your direction as you move.

Almost all digital cartography is inaccurate and incomplete
to some extent. Never rely solely on the cartography
provided for use with this device.

The use of the GPS module requires the module and your
compatible device to be switched on. Do not switch on your
device where it may cause interference or danger.

The GPS is operated by the government of the United States,
which is solely responsible for its accuracy and
maintenance. The accuracy of location data can be affected

Introduction

by adjustments to GPS satellites made by the United States
government and is subject to change with the United States
Department of Defense civil GPS policy and the Federal
Radionavigation Plan. Accuracy can also be affected by
poor satellite geometry. Availability and quality of GPS
signals may be affected by your location, buildings, natural
obstacles, and weather conditions. The GPS module should
only be used outdoors to allow reception of GPS signals.

GPS should only be used as a navigation aid. It should not
be used for precise location measurement and you should
never rely solely on location data from the GPS module for
positioning or navigation.
