L. Introduction Withthe Nokia Wireless GPS Module, you can determine your current position and direction essily. The GPS moduleis a battery operated devicethat uses Bluetooth wireless technology to comrrunicate positioning inforration to compatible mobile phones, PGs, PDAs, and other devices. Readthis user guide caræully before usingthe GPS module. Check also http:// vmw.nokia.com/support or your local Nokia Web site for the latest version of this guide, additional inforration, downloads, and services related to your Nokia product. HE Goba Fositioning System The Gobal Positioning System (GPS) is a worldwide satellite- based radio navigation system A Sterrinal can calculateits location to an accuracy of 25 rreters. The accuracy depends on the nurrber of satellites, the signais of which the GPS module receives. In optimal conditions, the accuracy ray be within a few meters. The antenna of the GPS module is located under the Nokia logo, and'it should face upwarcs, Some car windshields and windows may contain metal, which may block or wesken the satellite signals. If you stand still, GPS cannot detect which way you are facing, because it deterrines your direction on the basis of your movement. Copyright © 2004 Nokia. AII rights reserved.

Note The Gobei Positioning System The Gobal Positioning System (GPS) is operated by the United States govemrrent, which is solaly responsible for accuracy and rraintenance of the system The accuracy of location data can be affected by adjustments to GPS satellites made bythe United States govemnrent and is subject to change with the United States Department of Defense civil GPS policy andthe Federal Radionavigation Plan. Accuracy can also be affected by poor satellite georretry. Availability and quality of GPS signals ray be affected by buildings and natural obstacles, as well as weather conditions. The GPS receiver should only be used outdoors to allow reception of GPS signals. Tharefore, GPS should not be used for precise location messurement, and you should never ray solely on location data fromthe GPS receiver. This GPS receiver does not support location of the phone by emergency operators. Copyright © 2004 Nokia. AII rights reserved.

Your Nokia Wireless GPS Module is powered by a rechargeable battery. The full performance of a new battery is achieved only after two or three corrplete charge and discharge cycles The battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of times, but it will eventually wear out. When thetalk and standby times are noticeably shorter than nonral, buy a new battery. Use only Nokia approved batteries, and recharge batteries only with Nokia approved chargers designated forthis. Unplugthe charger fromthe alectrical plug and the device when not in use. Do not leave the battery connected to a charger. Overcharging may shorten its liftirre. f left unused, a fully charged battery will leseits charge over time. Temperature etremes can affect the ability of your battery to charge Usethe battery only for its intended purpose. Never use any charger or battery that is darreged. Do not short- circuit the battery. Accidental short- circuiting can occur when a metallic object, such as a coin, a dlipor a pen, causes direct connection of the positive (- and negative (-) terrrinals of the battery (these look like rretal strips onthe battery). This might happen, for example, when you carry a spare battery in your pocket or purse. Short-circuitingthe terminals may darege the battery or the connecting object. Leavingthe battery in hot or cold places, such as in a closed car in summer or winter conditions, will reducethe capacity and lifetime of the battery. Always try Copyright © 2004 Nokia.
