Maps Maps About Maps Select Menu > Applications > GPS > 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. When you have an active data connection and browse the map on the display, a new map is automatically downloaded, if you browse to an area not covered by the maps that have already been downloaded. You can also use the Nokia Map Loader PC software to download maps. To install Nokia Map Loader to a compatible PC, visit 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, if available in your device. 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. About GPS 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. Assisted GPS (A-GPS) is used to retrieve assistance data over a packet data connection, which assists in calculating the coordinates of your current location when your device is receiving signals from satellites. 90
