Defense policy and the Federal Radio Navigation Plan. These changes may affect
the performance of location technology on your mobile device.
Your mobile device can also use
Assisted Global Positioning System
(AGPS), which
obtains information from the cellular network to improve GPS performance. AGPS
uses your wireless service provider's network and therefore airtime, data charges,
and/or additional charges may apply in accordance with your service plan. Contact
your wireless service provider for details.
Your Location
Location-based information includes information that can be used to determine the
approximate location of a mobile device. Mobile phones which are connected to a
wireless network transmit location-based information. Devices enabled with GPS or
AGPS technology also transmit location-based information. Additionally, if you use
applications that require location-based information (e.g. driving directions), such
applications transmit location-based information. This location-based information
may be shared with third parties, including your wireless service provider,
applications providers, Motorola, and other third parties providing services.
Emergency Calls
When you make an emergency call, the cellular network may activate the AGPS
technology in your mobile device to tell the emergency responders your approximate
location.
AGPS has limitations and
might not work in your area
. Therefore:
•
Always tell the emergency responder your location to the best of your ability; and
•
Remain on the phone for as long as the emergency responder instructs you.
Performance Tips
•
Go outside and away from underground locations, covered vehicles, structures
with metal or concrete roofs, tall buildings, and foliage. Indoor performance
might improve if you move closer to windows, but some window sun shielding
films can block satellite signals.
•
Move away from radios, entertainment equipment, and other electronic devices.
