Nokia E55 - Manual (Page 78)

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.
