calculate your approximate location. It will take the GPS 
feature of your phone some time to determine your 
approximate location. Even where your phone has 
good access to sufficient GPS satellite signals and 
network assist data, it may take 30 seconds or more to 
determine the approximate location. This time will 
increase where there is reduced access to satellite 
signals. When your approximate location is 
determined, it is made available to the appropriate 
emergency response center.
In some cases, your local 911 emergency response 
center may not be equipped to receive GPS location 
information. For this reason, and because the GPS 
location information reported is only approximate or 
may not be available in your location (see 
“IMPORTANT: Things to Keep in Mind” on page 122)
always report your location to the 911 operator you 
speak to when making an emergency call, if able, just 
as you would when using a phone without GPS 
capabilities.
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 125 for 
information on how to help your phone determine your 
location.

This displays the following information about the last 
time your location was calculated:

the location was last calculated.

GPS location information, contact your local 
authorities.
