Acquiring GPS Signals
When you turn on your navigation device, the GPS receiver must collect satellite data and establish the current
location. The time required to acquire satellite signals varies based on several factors, including how far you
are from the location where you last used your navigation device, whether you have a clear view of the sky, and
how long it has been since you last used your navigation device. The first time you turn on your navigation
device, it may take several minutes to acquire satellite signals.
