Solution:

You can translate the "Use my location" message with WordPress built-in filter hook gettext, for example, add below codes into your theme file functions.php:

add_filter( 'gettext', 'my_text_func', 20, 3 );
/**
 * @link http://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API/Filter_Reference/gettext
 */
function my_text_func( $translated_text, $text, $domain ) {
    if($text == 'Use my location' && $domain = 'toolset-maps'){
        $translated_text = "Use my location in your language";
    }
    return $translated_text;
}
