The content may be inaccurate and incomplete to some extent and is subject to availability. Never rely solely on the aforementioned content and related services. Some services may not be available in all countries, and may be provided only in selected languages. The services may be network dependent. For more information, contact your network service provider.Empty the cacheEmptying the cache memory helps you keep your data secure. The information or services you have accessed are stored in the cache memory of the device. If you have accessed or tried to access confidential information requiring passwords, empty the cache after each browsing session. Select Options > Clear privacy data > Cache.End the connectionEnd the connection and close the Browser application — Select Options > Exit. Delete cookies — Select Options > Clear privacy data > Cookies. Cookies contain information collected about your visits to web pages. Connection securityWith a secure connection and security certificates, you can safely browse the internet. If the security indicator ( ) is displayed during a connection, the data transmission between the device and the internet gateway or server is encrypted. The security icon does not indicate that the data transmission between the gateway and the content server (where the data is stored) is secure. The service provider secures the data transmission between the gateway and the content server. Security certificates may be required for some services, such as banking services. You are notified if the identity of the server is not authentic or if you do not have the correct security certificate in your device. For more information, contact your service provider. Important: Even if the use of certificates makes the risks involved in remote connections and software installation considerably smaller, they must be used correctly in order to benefit from increased security. The existence of a certificate does not offer any protection by itself; the certificate manager must contain correct, authentic, or trusted certificates for increased security to be available. Certificates have a restricted lifetime. If Expired certificate or Certificate not valid yet is shown, even if the certificate should be valid, check that the current date and time in your device are correct. Before changing any certificate settings, you must make sure that you really trust the owner of the certificate and that the certificate really belongs to the listed owner. 61Internet

Positioning (GPS)You can use applications such as GPS data to find out your location or measure distances. These applications require a GPS connection.About GPSThe Global Positioning System (GPS) is operated by the government of the United States, which is solely responsible for its accuracy and maintenance. The accuracy of location data can be affected by adjustments to GPS satellites made by the United States government and is subject to change with the United States Department of Defense civil GPS policy and the Federal Radionavigation Plan. Accuracy can also be affected by poor satellite geometry. Availability and quality of GPS signals may be affected by your location, buildings, natural obstacles, and weather conditions. GPS signals may not be available inside buildings or underground and may be impaired by materials such as concrete and metal. GPS should not be used for precise location measurement, and you should never rely solely on location data from the GPS receiver and cellular radio networks for positioning or navigation. The trip meter has limited accuracy, and rounding errors may occur. Accuracy can also be affected by availability and quality of GPS signals. The coordinates in the GPS are expressed using the international WGS-84 coordinate system. The availability of the coordinates may vary by region.Assisted GPS (A-GPS)Your device also supports assisted GPS (A-GPS). A-GPS requires network support. Assisted GPS (A-GPS) is used to retrieve assistance data over a packet data connection, which assists in calculating the coordinates of your current location when your device is receiving signals from satellites. When you activate A-GPS, your device receives useful satellite information from an assistance data server over the cellular network. With the help of assisted data, your device can obtain the GPS position faster. 68Positioning (GPS)
Your device is preconfigured to use the Nokia A-GPS service, if no service provider-specific A-GPS settings are available. The assistance data is retrieved from the Nokia A-GPS service server only when needed. To disable the A-GPS service, select Menu > Applications > GPS data and Options > Positioning settings > Positioning methods > Assisted GPS > Options > Disable. You must have an internet access point defined in the device to retrieve assistance data from the Nokia A-GPS service over a packet data connection. The access point for A-GPS can be defined in positioning settings. A wireless LAN (WLAN) access point cannot be used for this service. Only a packet data internet access point can be used. Your device asks you to select the internet access point when GPS is used for the first time.Tips on creating a GPS connectionIf your device cannot find the satellite signal, consider the following: •If you are indoors, go outdoors to receive a better signal. •If you are outdoors, move to a more open space. •Ensure that your hand does not cover the GPS antenna of your device. •If the weather conditions are bad, the signal strength may be affected. •Some vehicles have tinted (athermic) windows, which may block the satellite signals. Check satellite signal status — To check how many satellites your device has found, and whether your device is receiving satellite signals, select Menu > Applications > GPS data and Options > Satellite status. If your device has found satellites, a bar for each satellite is displayed in the satellite information view. The longer the bar, the stronger the satellite signal is. When your device has received enough data from the satellite signal to calculate your location, the bar colour changes. Initially, your device must receive signals from at least four satellites to be able to calculate your location. When the initial calculation has been made, it may be possible to continue calculating your location with three satellites. However, the accuracy is generally better when more satellites are found.Position requestsYou 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 on the location of your device. When you receive a position request, the service that is making the request is displayed. Select Accept to allow 69Positioning (GPS)
your position information to be sent or Reject to d e ny t h e request.Landmarks With Landmarks, you can save the position information of specific locations in your device. You can sort the saved locations into different categories, such as business, and add other information to them, such as addresses. You can use your saved landmarks in compatible applications, such as GPS data. Select Menu > Applications > Landmarks. The coordinates in the GPS are expressed using the international WGS-84 coordinate system. Select Options and from the following: •New landmark — Create a new landmark. To make a positioning request for your current location, select Current position. To select the location from the map, select Select from map. To enter the position information manually, select Enter manually. •Edit — Edit or add information to a saved landmark (for example, a street address). •Add to category — Add a landmark to a category in Landmarks. Select each category to which you want to add the landmark. •Send — Send one or several landmarks to a compatible device. Your received landmarks are placed in the Inbox folder in Messaging. You can sort your landmarks into preset categories, and create new categories. To edit and create new landmark categories, open the categories tab, and select Options > Edit categories. GPS dataRoute guidanceSelect Menu > Applications > GPS data and Navigation. Start the route guidance outdoors. If started indoors, the GPS receiver may not receive the necessary information from the satellites. Route guidance uses a rotating compass on the device display. A red ball shows the direction to the destination, and the approximate distance to it is shown inside the compass ring. Route guidance is designed to show the straightest route and the shortest distance to the destination, measured in a straight line. Any obstacles on the route, such as buildings and natural obstacles, are ignored. Differences in altitude are not taken into account when calculating the distance. Route guidance is active only when you move. To set your trip destination, select Options > Set destination and a landmark as the destination, or enter the latitude and longitude coordinates. To clear the destination set for your trip, select Stop navigation.Trip meterSelect Menu > Applications > GPS data and Trip distance. The trip meter has limited accuracy, and rounding errors may occur. Accuracy can also be affected by availability and quality of GPS signals. 70Positioning (GPS)
