About Maps

You must have an internet access point defined in the device to retrieve assistance
data from the Nokia A-GPS service over a packet data connection.
Define an access point for A-GPS — Select Menu > Applications > Location
and Positioning > Positioning server > Access point. Only a packet data
internet access point can be used for this service. Your device asks for the internet
access point when GPS is used for the first time.

Hold your device correctly

When using the GPS receiver, ensure you do not cover the antenna with your hand.
Establishing a GPS connection may take from a couple of seconds to
several minutes. Establishing a GPS connection in a vehicle may take
longer.
The GPS receiver draws its power from the device battery. Using the
GPS receiver may drain the battery faster.

Select Menu > Maps.
With Maps, you can see your current location on the map, browse maps of different
cities and countries, and search for addresses and places of interest. You can also
plan routes, and get voice-guided car and pedestrian navigation around the world.
If you save your favorite locations and routes to your Nokia account, you can
organize them into collections, and synchronize the saved items between your
cellular phone and the Ovi Maps internet service.
You can also view information about weather, traffic, events, travel, or other
location details, if available for your country or region.
