your location with three satellites. However, the accuracy 
is generally better when more satellites are found.
Position requests
You may receive a request from a network service to 
receive your position information. Service providers may 
offer information about local topics, such as weather or 
traffic conditions, based upon the location of your device. 
When you receive a position request, a message is 
displayed showing the service that is making the request. 
Select 
Accept
 to allow your position information to be 
sent or 
Reject
 to deny the request.
Maps 
Press , 
and 
select 
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, view traffic details, and save locations as 
landmarks and send them to compatible devices.
You can also purchase extra services, such as guides, a 
turn-by-turn Drive & Walk navigation service with voice 
guidance, and a traffic information service.
Maps
 uses GPS. You can define the positioning methods 
used with your device in the device settings. See 
‘Positioning’, p. 125. For the most accurate location 
information, use either the internal GPS or the external 
GPS receiver.
When you use 
Maps
 for the first time, you may need to 
define an internet access point for downloading map 
information for your current location. To change the 
default access point later, select 
Options
> 
Tools
> 
Settings
> 
Internet
> 
Default access point
 (shown only 
when you are online).
When you browse a map in Maps, the map data for the 
area is automatically downloaded to your device through 
the internet. A new map is downloaded only if you scroll to 
an area which is not covered by maps already downloaded.
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.
 Tip! You can also download maps by using a WLAN 
connection, or through the internet using Nokia 
MapLoader. See ‘Download maps’, p. 75.
