About Maps
With Maps, you can see your current location on the
map, browse maps of different cities and countries,
search for places, plan routes from one location to
another, save locations, and send them to compatible
devices. You can also purchase licenses for traffic
information and navigation services, if available for
your country or region.
When you use Maps for the first time, you may need to
select an Internet access point for downloading maps.
If you browse to an area which is not covered by maps
already downloaded in your device, a map for the area
is automatically downloaded through the Internet.
Some maps may be available in your device or on a
memory card. You can also use the Nokia Map Loader
PC software to download maps. To install Nokia Map
Loader to a compatible PC, see www.nokia.com/
maps.
Tip: To avoid data transfer costs, you can also use
Maps without an Internet connection, and
browse the maps that are saved in your device
or memory card.
Note: Downloading content such as maps,
satellite images, voice files, guides or traffic
information may involve transmission of large
amounts of data (network service).
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.
Network positioning
Select Menu > Maps.
You can use the mobile network to find your current
location, even indoors. This is faster but less accurate
than with GPS, and you cannot use the location as a
starting point for navigation.
To use the mobile network for positioning, select the
network-based positioning method from the device
settings. When you start the Maps application and your
GPS connection is ready, GPS replaces mobile network
as the positioning method.
Compass
Select Menu > Maps.
Your device has an internal compass. When the
compass is enabled, the circle around the compass is
green, and the map view rotates automatically
