Improving GPS accuracy
The first time you use the GPS function in your device, it can take a few minutes for
your location to be found. To help the search, make sure you have a clear view of
the sky. Stand still and don't cover the GPS antenna (the highlighted area in the
image). GPS signals can pass through clouds and plastic, but not through most
solid objects such as buildings and mountains. If your location isn't found after a
few minutes, move to another location.
