Nokia Map Loader

To download the Nokia Map Loader on your PC and for further instructions, see

www.maps.nokia.com.
Before you download new maps for the first time, make sure that you have a memory

card inserted in the phone, and select Menu > Maps to do an initial configuration.
To change the selection of maps on your memory card, use the Nokia Map Loader to

delete all maps on the memory card and download a new selection, to ensure that all

maps are from the same release.

Network service

You can set your phone to automatically download maps that you do not have in your

phone when needed. Select Menu > Maps > Settings > Network settings > Allow

network usage.
To prevent automatic download of maps, select No.
Downloading maps may involve the transmission of large amounts of data through your

service provider’s network. Contact your service provider for information about data

transmission charges.

Maps and GPS

You can use the global positioning system (GPS) to support the Maps application. Find

out your location, or measure distances and coordinates.
Before you can use the GPS function with your phone, you must pair your phone with a

compatible external GPS receiver using Bluetooth wireless technology. For more

information, see the user guide for your GPS device.
After pairing the Bluetooth GPS device with the phone, it may take several minutes for

the phone to display the current location. Subsequent connections should be faster, but

if you have not used GPS for several days, or are very far away from the last place you

used it, it may take several minutes to detect and display your location.
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is operated by the government of the United States,

which is solely responsible for its accuracy and maintenance. The accuracy of location

data can be affected by adjustments to GPS satellites made by the United States

government and is subject to change with the United States Department of Defense civil

GPS policy and the Federal Radionavigation Plan. Accuracy can also be affected by poor

satellite geometry. Availability and quality of GPS signals may be affected by your

location, buildings, natural obstacles, and weather conditions. The GPS receiver should

only be used outdoors to allow reception of GPS signals.
Any GPS should not be used for precise location measurement, and you should never

rely solely on location data from the GPS receiver and cellular radio networks for

positioning or navigation.
