GPS signal and reception
The tracker uses GPS (Global Positioning System) technology to calculate its
current location. It receives signals from GPS satellites in space. These GPS
signals can be received when the device is used outdoors or in a vehicle. The
GPS signal is blocked, however, when the tracker is located inside a building
or under a concrete roof. The signal may be blocked or diverted even if the
tracker is placed near a window. In such case,s the device will use an
alternative method to calculate its position. The position is determined
through the identification of a nearby Wi-Fi router or mobile communications
antenna. This is less precise than GPS data and may be hundreds of meters from
the tracker. If the device is using a cell-based location (also known as “GSM-
based location”), you will be able to tell by a semi-transparent blue circle
over the location.
SOS alert
Press on the SOS button (on the back side) to trigger the SOS alert until the
device makes a beep sound. You will receive a notification in the Trackimo+
app when the button is pressed.

(Applicable in the EU and other European countries with systems of separately
collecting waste and recyclables). Old devices cannot be disposed of as
household waste! If the tracker can no longer be used, all consumers are
legally obligated to separate old devices from household waste, e.g. by
disposing of them using a municipal/ district collection point. This ensures
that old devices are properly recycled and avoid negative environmental
impact. Therefore electronic devices are labelled with the symbol shown here.
Batteries cannot be disposed of as household waste! As a consumer, you are
legally obligated to dispose of all batteries at a municipal/district
collection point or a retailer, regardless of whether or not they contain
harmful substances*, so that they can be disposed of in an environmentally
friendly way.
