15. Maps
You can browse maps for different cities and countries,
search for addresses and points of interest, plan routes
from one location to another, save locations as
landmarks, and send them to compatible devices.
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.
To use the Maps application, select Menu > Maps and
from the available options.
Download maps
Your phone may contain pre-installed maps on the
memory card. You can download a new set of maps
through the internet using the Nokia Map Loader PC
software.
Nokia Map Loader
To download the Nokia Map Loader on your PC and for
further instructions, see.
Before you download new maps for the first time, ensure
that you have a memory card inserted in the phone.
Select Menu > Maps to do an initial configuration.
To change the selection of maps on your memory card,
use the Nokia Map Loader to delete all maps on the
memory card and download a new selection, to ensure
that all maps are from the same release.
Network map service
You can set your phone to automatically download maps
that you do not have in your phone when needed.
Select Menu > Maps > Settings > Network
settings > Allow network usage > Yes or In home
network.
To prevent automatic download of maps, select No.
Note: Downloading maps may involve the
transmission of large amounts of data through your
service provider’s network. Contact your service provider
for information about data transmission charges.
Maps and GPS
You can use the Global Positioning System (GPS) to
support the Maps application. Find out your location, or
measure distances and plot coordinates.
Once the internal GPS receiver in your device locates a
satellite signal, it may take several minutes for the phone
to display the current location. Subsequent connections
should be faster, but if you have not used GPS for several
days, or are very far away from the last place you used it,
it may take several minutes to detect and display your
location.
