Finding and Viewing Locations

WARNING:

For important information about driving and navigating safely, see the

Important Product Information Guide at www.apple.com/support/manuals/ipodtouch.

Maps provides street maps, satellite photos, a hybrid view, and street views of locations
in many of the world’s countries. You can get detailed driving, public transit, or walking
directions and traffic information. Find your current (approximate) location, and use
your current location to get driving directions to or from another place.

To use Maps, iPod touch must join a Wi-Fi network that is connected to the Internet.
See “Connecting to the Internet” on page 35.

Important:

Maps, directions, and location-based applications provided by Apple

depend on data collected and services provided by third parties. These data services
are subject to change and may not be available in all geographic areas, resulting in
maps, directions, or location-based information that may be unavailable, inaccurate, or
incomplete. Compare the information provided on iPod touch to your surroundings
and defer to posted signs to resolve any discrepancies. In order to provide your
location, data is collected in a form that doesn’t personally identify you. If you don’t
want such data collected, don’t use the feature. Not using this feature won’t impact the
non–location-based functionality of your iPod touch.
