Abstract
A mobile communication terminalhas a navigation function to perform a route guidance from a present location to a destination by utilizing a networkand a GPS signal. A geomagnetism sensor, a direction detecting circuitand a gyro sensordetects a traveling direction of the mobile communication terminal(user). The CPUdetermines whether or not the traveling direction and a direction of the route designated by the navigation function are coincident with each other by the processing in a step S. Then, if the traveling direction and the direction of the route designated by the navigation function are not coincident with each other, the LEDnotifies what direction the user has to go by emitting light in any one of red, yellow and orange.
