The mini-S3 BTGPS has one power jack via the mini-USB connection. Caution
and care must be exercised when handling these parts. Bending or breaking

RECEPTION OF SATELLITE SIGNALS
A longer than normal time-to-first-fix of position may result the first time you
use the mini-S3 BTGPS.
Operating the GPS receiver requires a clear and unobstructed view of sky with
the antenna facade pointing upward to the sky.
GPS receivers may receive interference near cellular base-stations and when in
close proximity to mobile phone antennas. This interference may affect
positioning and time-to-fix performance.

the regulations and rules may be dangerous or illegal.
Road safety is the first priority; do not use or operate the mini-S3 BTGPS
