    Welcome to Maps.
    Maps shows you what is nearby, helps you plan your route,
    and guides you where you want to go.
    •Find cities, streets, and services.
    •Find your way with turn-by-turn directions.
    •Synchronise your favourite locations and routes
    between your mobile device and the Ovi Maps internet

    available.
    Note: Downloading content such as maps, satellite
    images, voice files, guides or traffic information may
    involve transmission of large amounts of data (network
    service).
    Some services may not be available in all countries, and
    may be provided only in selected languages. The services
    may be network dependent. For more information,
    contact your network service provider.
    Almost all digital cartography is inaccurate and

    cartography that you download for use in this device.
    Content such as satellite images, guides, weather and
    traffic information and related services are generated by
    third parties independent of Nokia. The content may be

    If only cell ID based positioning is available, a red halo
    around the positioning icon indicates the general area you
    might be in. In densely populated areas, the accuracy of
    the estimate increases, and the red halo is smaller than in
    lightly populated areas.

    Use the Nokia Ovi Suite application to download the latest
    maps and voice guidance files to your compatible
    computer. To download and install Nokia Ovi Suite on your
    compatible computer, go to www.ovi.com.
    Tip: Save new maps to your device before a journey,
    so you can browse the maps without an internet
    connection when travelling abroad.
    To make sure your device does not use an internet
    connection, in the main menu, select Options >
    Settings > Internet > Connection > Offline.Use the compassIf your device has a compass, when activated, both the
    arrow of the compass and the map rotate automatically in
    the direction to which the top of your device is pointing.
    Select Menu > Maps and My position.
    Activate the compass —  Press 5.
    Deactivate the compass —  Press 5 again. The map is
    oriented north.
    The compass is active when there is a green outline. If the
    compass needs calibration, the outline of the compass is
    red or yellow.
    Calibrate the compass —  Rotate the device around all
    axes in a continuous movement until the outline of the
    compass turns green.
    The compass has limited accuracy. Electromagnetic fields,
    metal objects, or other external circumstances may also
    affect the accuracy of the compass. The compass should
    always be properly calibrated.About positioning methodsMaps displays your location on the map using GPS, A-GPS,
    WLAN, or cell ID based positioning.
    The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a satellite-based
    navigation system used for calculating your location.
    Assisted GPS (A-GPS) is a network service that sends you
    73Maps 
    						
    							GPS data, improving the speed and accuracy of the
    positioning.
    Wireless local area network (WLAN) positioning improves
    position accuracy when GPS signals are not available,
    especially when you are indoors or between tall buildings.
    With cell ID based positioning, the position is determined
    through the antenna tower your mobile device is currently
    connected to.
    Depending on the available positioning method, the
    accuracy of positioning may vary from a few metres to
    several kilometres.
    When you use Maps for the first time, you are prompted
    to define the internet access point to use to download map
    information, use A-GPS, or connect to a WLAN.
    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.
    Note: Using WLAN may be restricted in some
    countries. For example, in France, you are only allowed to
    use WLAN indoors. For more information, contact your
    local authorities.
