About Maps

With Maps, you can see your current location on the map,
browse maps of different cities and countries, search for
places, plan routes from one location to another, save
locations, and send them to compatible devices. You can also
purchase licenses for traffic information and navigation
services, if available for your country or region.
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 on a memory card. You can
also use the Nokia Map Loader PC software to download
maps. To install Nokia Map Loader to a compatible PC, see
www.nokia.com/maps.
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.
Note: Downloading content such as maps, satellite
images, voice files, guides or traffic information may involve
transmission of large amounts of data (network service).
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.
