V800 uses SiRFInstantFix™ satellite prediction technology to acquire a fast satellite
fix. It accurately predicts satellite positions for up to three days allowing you to find
satellite signals in 5 -10 seconds.
To catch the GPS satellite signals, go outdoors and away from tall buildings and
trees. Wear V800 with the face upwards on your wrist. Keep it in a horizontal position
in front of you and away from your chest. Keep your arm stationary and raised above
the level of your chest during the search

Due to the location of the GPS antenna on the V800, it is not recommended to wear it
with the display on the underside of your wrist. When wearing it on the handlebars of a
bike, make sure the display is facing up.
