GPS Reception

1. Activate the product in an area without larg e buildings
to improve GPS reception.

The com m erci al p urp os e GPS has the average rag e error of m ore
than 15 me te r s and the r a nge err o r could be mor e than 100 mete r s
du e to environmental c onditions l ike buildings, roadside trees etc.

2.

The temperature range for optimum operation of t he GP
S receiver i n your car is -10 ~ 50

3. Wh en using the product for the first time or after a long
period (more than three days), it may t ake a l i t t l e longer
to recognize your current location .

It may take between five and thirty minutes to get GPS reception.

GPS recepti on may be i mpai r ed under the following circums tances.

1) If there is an object at th e end of the GPS antenn a

2) If you r vehicle has m etallic elements on t he wind shields

3) If equipment generating electromagnetic waves that interfere with the GPS
signal is in stalled in the vehic le e.g.: Other GPS devic es such as a certain
type of wireless act ivated alarm s , MP3 and CD players an d camera al arm s
usi ng GPS.

4) If you are usin g a receiver connected by cable, electric interference can be
avoided b y sim p ly ch an gi ng the location of th e receiver ( ant en n a).

5) On heavily overcast or cloudy days, if the vehicl e is in a covered location
such as under a bridge or raised roadway, in a tunnel, an underground
roadway or parking area, inside a building or surrounded by high-rise
buildings.

6) If GPS signal recepti on is poor, it may take long er to loc ate your current
position when the vehicle is moving than when it is stationary.
