Compass
Select Menu > Maps.
Your device has an internal compass. When the
compass is enabled, the circle around the compass is
green, and the map view rotates automatically
according to the direction to which the top of the
device is pointing.
The compass is active by default. To turn off the
compass, select in the Maps main view, select
Options > Tools > Turn compass off. When the
compass is not turned on, the circle around the
compass is white, and the map view does not rotate
automatically. Turning off the compass is only valid for
the current session. When you open Maps the next
time, it will be turned on automatically.
Before you can calibrate the compass you should check
the following:
● The device sensors are on. Select Menu >
Settings > Phone > Sensor settings >
Sensors > On.
● GPS connection is active.
● The map is zoomed to your GPS position. Otherwise
the compass icon is not shown.
To calibrate the compass:
Rotate the device around all axes in a continuous
movement until the calibration indicator changes its
colour to green . If the indicator is yellow , the
accuracy of the compass is low. If the indicator is red
, the compass is not calibrated

To zoom in to your GPS position or your last known
location, select Options > My position.
When the GPS connection is active, shows your

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 84 inserted).
