Almost all digital cartography is inaccurate and incomplete to some extent. Never rely solely 
on the cartography provided for use in this device.
When you open Maps, it shows the location that was saved from your last session

A GPS indicator (
) 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 key. A new map 
is automatically downloaded if you scroll to an area which is not covered by maps 
already downloaded. See “Download maps,” p. 40. 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).
