When you use Maps for the first time, you may need to select a cellular access point for
downloading map information for your current location. To change the default access point
later, select Options > Tools > Settings > Internet > Network destination.
To receive a note when your device registers to a network outside your home network, select
Options > Tools > Settings > Internet > Roaming warning > On. For details and roaming
costs, contact your network service provider.

on the cartography provided for use in this device.

capital of the country you are in. The map of the location is also downloaded, if needed.

One bar indicates one satellite. When the device receives enough data from the satellite to
establish a GPS connection, the bar turns green. Your device must receive signals from at

signals from three satellites may be enough.
To zoom in or out, press * or #. To move on the map, use the scroll key. A new map is
automatically downloaded if you scroll to an area which is not covered by maps already
downloaded. See ”Download maps,” p. 38. The maps are free of charge, but downloading may
involve the transmission of large amounts of data through your service provider's network.
For more information on data transmission charges, contact your service provider. The maps
are automatically saved in the device memory or on a compatible memory card (if inserted).
