When the GPS connection is active, shows your current location on the map.
To move on the map, drag the map. The map is oriented towards north by default.
When you have an active connection and browse the map on the display, a new map is

automatically downloaded if you scroll to an area which is not covered by maps already

downloaded. The maps are automatically saved in the device memory or on a

compatible memory card (if inserted).
To zoom in and out on the map, select + and -.

Display indicators

The GPS indicator

shows the availability and strength of the satellite signal.

One bar is one satellite. When the device tries to find a satellite, the bar is yellow. When

the device receives enough data from the satellite to establish a GPS connection, the

bar turns green. The more green bars, the stronger the GPS connection.
Initially, your device must receive signals from at least four satellites to calculate the

coordinates of your location. After the initial calculation, signals from three satellites

may be enough.
The data transfer indicator

shows the internet connection used and the

amount of data transferred since the application started.

Find locations

Select Menu > Maps.
To find a location in the city or area displayed on the map, enter the full or partial address

of the location in the search field. Tap the green arrow, and select Search. To find a

location in another city, enter the city and the full or partial address, such as London

Oxford Street. For the best results, enter the name of the city in the local language.

Tip: If unsure of the name of the location, enter only the first characters of the

search word. For the best search results, enter at least three characters.

To find a specific address, or an address in another country, select Options > Search >

Addresses. Country/Region * and City/Zip code* are mandatory.

Tip: To search for locations in another country using the search field, enter also

the name of the country in the search field: Rome Italy. Enter the name of the

country in English, or use the three letter ISO-code (ITA for Italy, GBR for Great

Britain, CHN for China).

To import a location address from the Contacts application, select Options > Search >

Addresses > Options > Select from Contacts.
If you search for locations without an internet connection, the search results are limited

to a radius of 50 km (31 miles).

Search by categories

The search results are grouped by categories. To limit the search to one category, select

Options > Search > Places and the category.
