When using the GPS receiver

The GPS receiver is installed under the receiver’s top panel. Therefore, when the GPS
receiver is activated, do not cover the top with anything that will block the satellite
signals.
The GPS receiver is installed here.

GPS signals cannot pass through metal objects. When using the receiver inside a
vehicle, you may not receive GPS signals. We recommend you use it near a window.

The GPS receiver may not work if used in the following locations:
1. Tunnels or high-rise buildings
2. Underground parking lots

The Global Positioning System (GPS) is built and operated by the U.S. Department of
Defense. The Department is responsible for accuracy and maintenance of the system.
Any changes by the Department may affect the accuracy and function of the GPS
system.
