Getting a GPS Fix
The iCN 620 unit receives GPS signals through the aerial on the back of your unit. In order for the aerial to receive
signals, ensure that:
1 The unit is outside or in a vehicle parked outside  sunlight alone is not suf cient (e.g. through the window of a building).
2 The aerial is pointing horizontally out through your windshield, and has a clear view of the sky.
When you  rst power on your unit and program a route, it may take several minutes for the unit to get its  rst GPS  x.
You can minimize the amount of time that this takes by remaining stationary in your vehicle until the unit has a  x.
GPS strength indicator is red when
the unit has no GPS  x, and green
with signal strength indicators when
a GPS  x is available.
ý
You will know when the unit has got a GPS  x by the symbols on your map screen. When the unit has no  x, the GPS
strength indicator in the bottom left-hand corner of the screen will be coloured red and the words Waiting for GPS will
be displayed. Also, while the unit is attempting to get a  x, you will notice that there are no route instructions displayed
on the map screen.
Once the unit has a valid  x, the GPS strength indicator will turn green and you are ready to program in your destination.
