Acquiring Satellites
• The GPS Satellite strength bars indicate the strength of your satellite reception.
• Acquiring satellite signals can take a few minutes. When at least one of the bars is green,
your device has acquired satellite signals.
• You may experience delays receiving satellite signals when in areas with an obstructed
view to the sky, such as garages, tunnels, or large cities with tall buildings.
