Download maps

When you browse a map on the display in Maps, a new

map is automatically downloaded if you scroll to an area

which is not covered by maps already downloaded. You

can view the amount of transferred data from the data

counter (kB) shown on the display. The counter shows the

amount of network traffic when you browse maps, create

routes, or search for locations online. Downloading maps

data 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.
To prevent the device from automatically downloading

maps through the internet, for example, when you are

outside your home cellular network, or other map related

data required by the extra services, select
