Acquiring GPS Signals
When you turn on your navigation device, the GPS receiver
must collect satellite data and establish the current location. The
time required to acquire satellite signals varies based on several
factors, including how far you are from the location where you
last used your navigation device, whether you have a clear view
of the sky, and how long it has been since you last used your
navigation device. The first time you turn on your navigation
device, it may take several minutes to acquire satellite signals.

Vehicle Profiles
WARNING
Entering your vehicle profile characteristics does not guarantee
that your vehicle's characteristics will be accounted for in all
route suggestions or that you will receive the warning icons in all
cases. Limitations may exist in the map data such that your
device cannot account for these restrictions or road conditions in
all cases. Always defer to all posted road signs and road
conditions when making driving decisions.
Routing and navigation are calculated differently based on your
vehicle profile. The activated vehicle profile is indicated by an
icon in the status bar. The navigation and map settings on your
device can be customized separately for each vehicle type.
When you activate a camper vehicle profile, the device avoids
including restricted or impassable areas in routes based on the
dimensions, weight, and other characteristics you entered for
your vehicle.
