2. The temperature range for optimum operation of the GP S receiver in your car is -10 \~ 50°C.
3. When using the product for the first time or after a long period (more than three days), it may take a little longer to recognize your current location.
It may take between five and thirty minutes to get GPS reception.
GPS reception may be impaired under the following circumstances.
1) If there is an object at the end of the GPS antenna
2) If your vehicle has metallic elements on the windshields
3) If equipment generating electromagnetic waves that interfere with the GPS signal is installed in the vehicle e.g.: Other GPS devices such as a certain type of wireless activated alarms, MP3 and CD players and camera alarms using GPS.
4) If you are using a receiver connected by cable, electric interference can be avoided by simply changing the location of the receiver (antenna).
5) On heavily overcast or cloudy days, if the vehicle 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 reception is poor, it may take longer to locate your current position when the vehicle is moving than when it is stationary.
