Tools speak to when making an emergency call, if able, just as you would when using a phone without GPS capabilities. Note If you are concerned about whether your local 911 emergency response center is equipped to receive GPS location information, contact your local authorities. In general, if your phone has access to signals from more GPS satellites, your location will be determined faster and more accurately than if your phone has access to signals from fewer GPS satellites. If your phone does not have adequate access to GPS satellites signals, the location of the nearest cell tower in contact with your phone is automatically made available to the emergency response center, if the center has the capability to receive such information. See "Enhancing GPS Performance" on page 122 for information on how to help your phone determine your location. Viewing Your Approximate Location 1. Press M > GPS > Position. 2. Scroll to view the entire screen. This displays the following information about the last time your location was calculated: ⅷ The time (as Greenwich Mean Time) and date that the location was last calculated. ⅷ The approximate location, expressed as latitude and longitude. ⅷ The estimated accuracy of the calculated location. This estimate of accuracy is only a very rough estimate and may vary substantially from the actual accuracy of the approximate location information reported. ⅷ The number of satellites used to calculate the location. In general, more satellites make for better accuracy. To calculate your location again: ᮣ Press Rfrsh (left softkey). It may take your phone several minutes to complete the process of determining your location. During this time, a message usually appears on your phone's display saying your phone is scanning for satellites. For tips on Section 2F. Tools 121
