When you open Maps, the capital city of the country you are in or the location that was saved from your last session is shown. The map of the location is also downloaded, if needed.
To establish a GPS connection and zoom in to your last known location, press 0, or select Options > My position.
A GPS indicator on the bottom right of the display shows the availability and strength of the satellite signal. One bar indicates one satellite. When the device receives enough data from the satellite to establish a GPS connection, the bar turns green. 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.
To zoom in or out, press * or #. To move on the map, use the scroll keys. A new map is automatically downloaded if you scroll to an area which is not covered by maps already downloaded. See "Download maps", p. 34. The maps are free of charge, but downloading 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. The maps are automatically saved in the device memory or on a compatible memory card (if inserted).
