 | `layer` | [`ILayer`](http://leafletjs.com/reference.html#ilayer)  | The layer that the user's location should be drawn on. | a new layer |
 | `setView` | `boolean`  or `string`  | Set the map view (zoom and pan) to the user's location as it updates. Options are `false`, `'once'`, `'always'`, `'untilPan'`, or `'untilPanOrZoom'` | `'untilPanOrZoom'` |
 | `flyTo` | `boolean` | Smooth pan and zoom to the location of the marker. Only works in Leaflet 1.0+. | `false` |
-| `keepCurrentZoomLevel` | `boolean`  | Only pan when setting the view. | `false` |
+| `keepCurrentZoomLevel` | `boolean` or `Array` | Only pan when setting the view. Set to True (for any zoom), or a zoom range like [13,18] which will only zoom the map when outside the range. Keeps the current zoom, when current view within the defined range. | `false` |
 | `clickBehavior` | `object`  | What to do when the user clicks on the control. Has three options `inView`, `inViewNotFollowing` and `outOfView`. Possible values are `stop` and `setView`, or the name of a behaviour to inherit from. | `{inView: 'stop', outOfView: 'setView', inViewNotFollowing: 'inView'}` |
 | `returnToPrevBounds` | `boolean`  | If set, save the map bounds just before centering to the user's location. When control is disabled, set the view back to the bounds that were saved. | `false` |
 | `cacheLocation` | `boolean` | Keep a cache of the location after the user deactivates the control. If set to false, the user has to wait until the locate API returns a new location before they see where they are again. | `true` |
