are drawn up and continuously extended through community effort. It is possible
that, depending on the country and locality, they may not be complete in some
regions. We would like to ask you to excuse such omissions. Nevertheless, the
maps provided by OSM are the best ones available to our knowledge. Especially
in off-road areas these maps offer unbeatable advantages, and we are sure that
you will come to appreciate them on your bike trips.
When you leave your bicycle unattended, please make sure that the device is not
exposed to direct sunlight over a long period of time. If the battery overheats, this
can lead to serious damage to the device as well as to malfunctions. And please
bear in mind that it may be stolen! We advise you to remove the BikePilot
whenever you leave your bicycle unattended and to switch it off or to standby
mode.
The GPS satellite system is operated by the United States Government.
The United States Government is exclusively responsible for the performance and
functioning of the GPS signal. Any modification to the GPS system may affect its
accuracy and precision.
With the exception of glass, the GPS signal cannot penetrate solid objects. If you
are inside a building or tunnel,
the GPS signal will not be received.
At least 4 GPS satellites are needed to determine one's position. The reception
quality can be affected by external influences such as bad weather. Problems can
also arise under avenues of trees with dense foliage, in woods or between high
buildings.
Other wireless devices or on-board electronics of vehicles
can interfere with the GPS signal reception or give rise to unstable positioning.
