Introduction
Welcome to Maps. Here is important background
information before you get started.
System requirements
To use Maps, you need the following:
●Mobile device with S60 3.1 or 3.2 edition.
●Minimum of 5 MB free space either in the device
memory or compatible memory card.
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. The GPS receiver should only be used
outdoors to allow reception of GPS signals.
Any 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.
GPS receiver
If your device has an internal GPS receiver, you can use
it with Maps. Using the internal GPS receiver may drain
the device battery faster.
Use Maps with a compatible external GPS
receiver
1. Fully charge your GPS receiver, and switch it on.
© 2008 Nokia. All rights reserved.4

2. Set up a Bluetooth connection between your device
and the GPS receiver.
3. Place the GPS receiver in a position with an
unobstructed view to the sky.
4. Open the Maps application, and select the external
GPS receiver.
It may take several minutes to establish the first GPS
connection. Subsequent connections are faster, but, if
you have not used GPS for several days, or you are very
far from the last location you used it, it may take a
while to find a strong satellite signal.
Use the mobile network for positioning
If your mobile device supports assisted GPS (A-GPS),
you can use the mobile network to find your current
location even indoors. This is faster but less accurate
than with GPS, and you cannot use the location as a
starting point for navigation.
To use the mobile network for positioning, select the
network-based positioning method from the device
settings. When you start the Maps application and your
GPS connection is ready, GPS replaces mobile network
as the positioning method. For information about the
mobile network data transmission charges, contact
your service provider.

Get started
About Maps
With Maps, you can see your current location on the
map, browse maps for different cities and countries,
search for addresses and different points of interest,
plan routes from one location to another, and save
locations and send them to compatible devices. You
can also purchase licences for extra services, such as
travel guides, traffic information, and navigation
service with voice guidance. These services are not
available for all countries or regions.
When you use Maps for the first time, you may need to
select a cellular or a WLAN 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 memory
card. You can also use the Nokia Map Loader PC
software to download maps. To install Nokia Map
Loader to a compatible PC, go to www.nokia.com/
maps.
Downloading maps and extra services, such as travel
guides and voice guidance files, may involve the
transmission of large amounts of data through your
service provider's network. For more information on
data transmission charges, contact your service
provider.
To connect to the internet automatically when you
start Maps, select Options > Tools > Settings >
Internet > Go online at start-up > Always on.
To prevent automatic downloading of maps, select
Options > Tools > Settings > Internet > Go
online at start-up > Never.
To set the device to ask your permission before
connecting to the internet, select Options > Tools >
Settings > Internet > Go online at start-up >
Always ask.
To be informed when your device registers to a
network other than your home network, select
Options > Tools > Settings > Internet >
Roaming warning > On (shown only when you are
online). For details and roaming costs, contact your
service provider.

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.

Adjust the map view
You can adjust the map view in several ways to suit
your location or usage. Here are only a few examples.
See "Settings", p. 18.
System of measurement
To define the measurement system used in the maps,
select Options > Tools > Settings > Map >
System of measurement > Metric or Imperial.
Points of interest
To define what kinds of points of interest are shown
on the map, select Options > Tools > Settings >
Map > Categories and the desired categories.
Day or night view
To adjust the map for car navigation during daytime
or night-time, select Options > Tools > Settings >
Map > Colours > Day mode or Night mode.
Change map type
To change the map type,
select Options > Map
view > Map, 3D, Satellite,
or Hybrid. The satellite and
hybrid maps are available for
browsing maps and
pedestrian navigation, and
they cannot be downloaded
with Nokia Map Loader.
Satellite data is not available
for all regions.
Display indicators
The GPS indicator on the bottom right
corner of the display shows the availability and
strength of the satellite signal. One bar is one satellite.
When the device tries to find a satellite, the bar is
yellow. When the device receives enough data from
the satellite to establish a GPS connection, the bar
turns green. The more green bars, the stronger the GPS
connection.
Initially, your device must receive signals from at least
four satellites to calculate the coordinates of your
location. After the initial calculation, signals from
three satellites may be enough.

The data transfer indicator shows the
internet connection used and the amount of data
transferred since the application started.

go to www.nokia.com/maps, and follow the
instructions on the screen.
Download maps with Nokia Map Loader
1. Connect your device to the computer with a
