Maps
Select Menu > Applications > GPS > Maps.
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 licenses 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, go to http://
maps.nokia.com.
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.
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
Select Menu > Applications > GPS > Maps.
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, select the
network-based positioning method from the device settings.
When you start the Maps application and your GPS connection
is ready, GPS replaces mobile network as the positioning
method.
Move on a map
Select Menu > Applications > GPS > Maps.
To zoom into your GPS position or your last known location,
select Options > My position.
When the GPS connection is active, shows your current
location on the map.
To move on the map, scroll up, down, left or right with the
scroll key. The map is oriented towards north by default.
When you have an active connection and browse the map, a
new map is automatically downloaded if you scroll to an area
that 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 with the keypad, press * and
#. To zoom in and out on the map with the keyboard, press
the Shift and backspace keys.
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.
