Maps
About Maps
Select Menu > Maps.
With Maps, you can see your current location on the
map, browse maps of different cities and countries, search
for places of interest, plan routes from one location to
another, save locations, and send them to compatible
devices. You can also purchase 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.
When you have an active data connection and browse the
map on the display, a new map is automatically
downloaded, if you browse to an area not covered by the
maps that have already been downloaded. You can also
use the Nokia Map Loader PC software to download maps.
To install Nokia Map Loader to a compatible PC, go to
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, if available in
your device.
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.
About GPS
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. GPS signals may
not be available inside buildings or underground and may
be impaired by materials such as concrete and metal.
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.
The trip meter has limited accuracy, and rounding errors
may occur. Accuracy can also be affected by availability
and quality of GPS signals.
Assisted GPS (A-GPS) is used to retrieve assistance data
over a WiFi connection, which assists in calculating the
coordinates of your current location when your device is
receiving signals from satellites.
