Welcome to Maps.
Maps shows you what is nearby, helps you plan your route, and guides you where you
want to go.
•
Find cities, streets, and services.
• Find your way with turn-by-turn directions.
• Synchronise your favourite locations and routes between your phone and the
Nokia Maps web service.
• Check weather forecasts and other local information, if available.
Some services may not be available in all countries, and may be provided only in
selected languages. The services may be network dependent. For more information,
contact your network service provider.
Using services or downloading content may cause transfer of large amounts of data,
which may result in data traffic costs.
Contents of digital maps may sometimes be inaccurate and incomplete. Never rely
solely on the content or the service for essential communications, such as in
emergencies.
Some content is generated by third parties and not Nokia. The content may be
inaccurate and is subject to availability.

estimate increases, and the red halo is smaller than in lightly populated areas.
