6 Getting Around with Maps
6.1 Using Maps
Maps lets you track your current location, view real-time traffic situations, and receive detailed
directions to your destination. It also provides a search tool where you can locate places of interest or
an address on a vector or aerial map, or view locations in street level.
Notes
• You need an active data (3G/GPRS) or Wi-Fi connection to use Maps.
• The Maps application does not cover every country or city.

Location source.

2Touch Security & location.
3Navigate to the My Location sources section, then select Use wireless networks, Enable GPS
satellites, or both.
Note Selecting Enable GPS satellites lets you locate places of interest in street-level. However, this
requires a clear view of the sky and more battery power.
