Nokia Maps always tries to establish an online connection to the map server because an online search for addresses on the server is much quicker than searching the data on the local device memory or storage card. The transfer of data is indicated by a flashing symbol in the lower left corner of the screen (on Symbian Series 60 2nd Edition mobile devices like the Nokia N70, this symbol can be found in the upper right corner of the screen). However, you can prevent the establishment of an online connection to avoid downloading data and costs related to data transfer through Nokia Maps Settings menu (Options > Settings > Network > Network Usage > Never). In this case, the application is tied to using the map data already available on the mobile device.
