About GPS
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a constellation of satellites that
a GPS receiver uses to calculate geographical positions. To determine
a position, data from at least three satellites is required. To determine
elevation, the data from four or more satellites is required. Accuracy of
the positioning varies from 10 feet to several hundred feet, depending
on vehicle placement and the surrounding environment.
Geographical terrain (such as mountains), man-made structures (such as
highway overpasses, bridges, and tall buildings), as well as weather
can interfere with the GPS signal. For best GPS reception, position the
device and mount with a clear line of sight to the sky. Some vehicles
may have a limited view of the sky due to metal sun shields or a
metallized windshield coating.
Map data includes the geographical coordinates for address locations and
points of interest (POIs). With GPS reception, your device calculates a route
to your selected location.

Helpful Tips on Entering Addresses
Auto-Complete Feature:
Enter the fi rst few characters in a name and a short list displays
a couple of names that start with the typed characters.
On the keyboard, the only keys available are for the next valid
characters in a search name.
Continue entering characters until the searched-for name displays
in the list. Tap on the name to select it.
Cities:
Some cities with common names such as “Athens” have several types
of names associated with a city.
If a name does not display, continue typing characters until the name
you are looking for displays in the list.
Streets:
If the next letter in the street name can not be selected on the keyboard,
tap Expand Search to search a greater area.
The Expand Search button can also help locate addresses that may actually
be in a different town, spelled slightly differently, or in a neighboring town.
Note: If you’re entering a State or County Route, it’s typically best to fi rst
either enter the State or County initials (for example, State Road 535 would
be entered as “SR”) but you may also need to try other options, such as
“State Road” or “CA” for California, for example.
