With Maps, you can see your current location on the map,

browse maps for different cities and countries, search for

addresses and different points of interest, plan routes from

one location to another, and save locations and send them

to compatible devices. You can also purchase licences for

extra services, such as travel guides, traffic information, and

navigation service with voice guidance. These services are

not available for all countries or regions.
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 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 on a memory card.

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.

Downloading maps and extra services 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.

Network positioning

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, start the Maps

application, and select

Network based

as the positioning

method. When your GPS connection is ready, it replaces

mobile network as the positioning method.
