INTRODUCTION

INTRODUCTION
With Nokia Maps, you can see the 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 as landmarks and send them to compatible devices.
You can also purchase extra services, such as city guides and a turn-by-turn navigation service with voice guidance.

System requirements

• Mobile device running S60 3rd Edition
• Device memory, or compatible memory card, with at least 5 MB
of free space
• EDGE, UMTS, HSDPA, or wireless LAN connectivity
• Internal or external GPS receiver (optional)
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.
Page 6
INTRODUCTION
GPS should only be used as a navigation aid. It should not be used for precise location measurement and you should never rely solely on location data from the GPS receiver for positioning or navigation.

GET STARTED

GET STARTED

Set up Nokia Maps for the first use

Internal GPS receiver

If your device has an internal GPS receiver, you can use it for detecting your current position and for turn-by-turn navigation (extra service). The GPS receiver takes its power from the battery. Using the GPS receiver may drain the battery faster.

External Bluetooth GPS receiver

You can use Nokia Maps with an external GPS receiver.
Bluetooth technology provides a wireless connection between the GPS receiver and your device. You may therefore freely position the GPS receiver for optimum satellite reception.
1. Fully charge your GPS receiver and switch it on.
2. Set up a Bluetooth connection between your device and the GPS
receiver.
3. Place your GPS receiver in a position with an unobstructed view
to the sky.
4. Select the external GPS receiver when the application opens. The
GPS connection is established.
It may take several minutes to establish the first connection. Subsequent connections are faster, but, if you have not used GPS for several days, or you are very far away from the last location you used it, it may take several minutes to find a strong signal.

Set up network connections

When you use Nokia Maps for the first time, you may need to define an internet access point for downloading map information for your current location.

GET STARTED

The map

When you open Nokia Maps for the first time, the map is centred on your GPS position or last known location if available. If no position is available, the map is centred on the capital or major city of the current country or region, determined by the local network. Scroll to move the general map in the desired direction.
Nokia Maps downloads the map of your current location. The maps are automatically saved in the device memory or on a compatible memory card, if available, in your device.
You can browse the map, see information about the different locations shown on it and, for example, choose them for route planning and turn-by-turn navigation (extra 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.
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.
You can also use Nokia Map Loader. This PC application allows you to select available regions or countries to your PC and to transfer them to an attached mobile device or memory card. You can also use it to download voice skins for turn-by-turn navigation. You can download Nokia Map Loader at www.nokia.com/maps.

To view satellite info, select Options > Map options. If satellites have been detected, a bar for each satellite is shown in the satellite info view. The list does not contain all available satellites. When your GPS device is able to calculate your position, the bar of the satellites involved turns to black. The longer the bar, the stronger the satellite signal. When your GPS device receives signals from four satellites, Nokia Maps can show the coordinates of the current location and show it on the map. Please note that in certain situations, only three satellites are needed to calculate a position.

Map elements

Locations
The map not only shows streets and squares, but also points of interest such as restaurants, cultural attractions, car parks, and so on. You can define the depth of detail of the map by choosing which types of locations are displayed (See Map complexity, p. 25).
Compass rose
The compass rose displays the orientation of the map during navigation and in 3D mode.
The map is oriented towards north by default. However, during navigation, the orientation may change, for example to improve the visibility of turns.
Scale bar
The scale bar shows the scale depending on the actual zoom level. Through the scale bar, you may estimate the distance between two points on the map. The system of measurement can be metric or imperial and can be changed in the Settings (See General settings, p. 25).
Data transfer indicator and counter
The data transfer indicator shows any data transfer activity on your device. The indicator shows the kind of internet connection currently used (e.g. 3G) and blinks when data is being transferred. You can view the amount of transferred data from the data counter (kB) shown next to the indicator. The counter shows the amount of transferred data when you browse maps, create routes, or search for locations online. The counter is reset each time you restart Nokia Maps.
GPS indicator
The GPS indicator shows the availability and strength of the GPS signal.

MAIN FUNCTIONS

MAIN FUNCTIONS

Find places

Choose a place from the map

In addition to streets, squares, and parks, the map also contains locations such as car parks, petrol stations, and public transport. You can select these for turn-by-turn navigation (extra service), routing, and so on. The name of the selected location or street is shown in the upper edge of the screen.
When browsing to a certain direction, map information may not be available on your device for that area. Wait while Nokia Maps downloads the required map data.
To return to your GPS (or last known) position, choose GPS pos..
When you place the cursor near a symbol, Nokia Maps automatically focuses on this location and centres it on the screen.
If no location is selected when you press the scroll key, the context-menu opened applies to the nearest street.

Find an address

Select Options > Find place > Address.
The address search allows you to search for specific cities or streets. The search results can, for example, be displayed on the map and be used for route planning or turn-by-turn navigation (extra service).
You can enter the address details, such as Number, Street, City or post code, and Country *. To start searching, select Options > Search.
14
Page 15
To see a set of actions available for a search result, select Options > Use this place >. This includes showing it on the map, setting it as the start or destination of a route or navigation (extra service).
Tip: When entering your search criteria, try to keep it as simple as possible. For example, if you are looking for a street named East Houston Road, enter Houston for the street name.
MAIN FUNCTIONS

Choose a contact

Another way of finding an address is to use one of your contacts, if you have saved an address for it.
1. Select Options > Find place > Address > Options > Select from
contacts.
2. Select the contact from the list, and OK. Add further details to
the search if necessary.
3. To start searching, select Options > Search.

Find a place by keyword

If you are looking for a certain location in your surroundings, you can find it through the search function. To use the search function, just start typing while in the map view.
With the search function, you can find points of interest as well as guide entries. You cannot search for addresses.
Enter the name of the location you are looking for, and select Search.
You do not need to enter the complete name of the location; you can also enter a meaningful part of the name with at least three characters. You cannot use wildcards. (For example, use Francisco instead of San Francisco).
An alternative way of starting the location search is through Options > Find place > Keyword search.
