Positioning
Almost all digital cartography is inaccurate and
incomplete to some extent. Never rely solely on the
cartography that you download for use in this device.

Map coverage varies by country or region. This may be, for
example, due to legal restrictions.
When you open the Maps application, Maps zooms in to
the location that was saved from your last session. If no
position was saved from the last session, the Maps
application zooms in to the capital city of the country you
are in based on the information the device receives from
the cellular network. At the same time, the map of the
location is downloaded, if it has not been downloaded

To move on the map, scroll up, down, left, or right. A new
map is automatically downloaded if you scroll to an area

maps are automatically saved in the device memory or on
a compatible memory card (if inserted).
To establish a GPS connection and zoom in to your last

A GPS indicator is shown on the display when you

location, the circles turn green.
To view information about satellites when you are using
Maps, select Options > Map options > Satellite info.
