• Move the Bluetooth device to a place where connection is available when there is a broadcast station or radio near the Bluetooth device, and the terminal cannot be connected to the device. Strong radio waves may prevent connection between the terminal and the Bluetooth device.

• Wireless connection is available with Bluetooth device put in a bag or pocket. However, lowering of communication speed or noise may result when you are in between the Bluetooth device and the terminal.

• Bluetooth communication in some cases may result in an accident, so turn off the terminal and other Bluetooth devices in the following places.

- On trains

- On airplanes

- In hospitals

- Near automatic doors or re alarms

- In places such as gas stations where ammable gas is generated

Reception interference caused by wireless LAN

devices

• As the terminal's Bluetooth device and wireless LAN devices use the same frequency (2.4 GHz), reception interference may occur or the communications speed may lower if you use the Bluetooth device near the wireless LAN devices. Also, you may hear noise or have a connection problem. In these cases, do the following:

- Keep the Bluetooth device over 10 m away from a wireless LAN device.

- Within 10 m, turn off either the Bluetooth device or the wireless LAN device.

Pass code (PIN) of Bluetooth function

• Pass code (PIN) is an authentication code to enter when accessing Bluetooth devices for the first time to recognize and permit the connection each other. Entering the same pass code (PIN) (up to 16 single-byte alphanumeric characters) on each sending/receiving device is required.

• On the terminal, pass code may be displayed as "PIN".

Camera

The terminal has a built-in camera that can shoot photos and videos.

Before Shooting

All photos and videos shot on your terminal are saved to a microSD card. Please insert a microSD card before using Camera. You cannot shoot photos while you are transferring files to the microSD card.

Copyrights and portrait rights

Avoid copyright infringements when copying or editing photos and videos that have been shot on the terminal. You should also avoid infringing the por trait rights of other people by using or modifying their portraits without their consent. Note that the shooting or recording of stage performances, shows or exhibitions may be prohibited, even for personal use.

Please be considerate of the privacy of individuals around you when shooting and sending photos using camera-equipped mobile phones.

Notes for capturing images

• The Camera employs high precision technology, but some pixels or lines may seem brighter or darker than others. Also, when you shoot photos in places with insufficient lighting, noises seen as white line increase. This is normal.

• Clean the lens with a soft cloth before shooting. If the lens is stained with fingerprints or oil, the shot photo may appear out of focus or blurred.

• Do not leave the terminal in a warm place or under a direct sunlight for a long period of time. The qualit y of shot photos or video may deteriorate.

• If you shoot under a fluorescent light, mercury lamp or sodium lamp flickering at high speed, flickering such as stripes may appear. The color tone of photos or videos may vary depending on the shooting timing.

• Do not expose the lens to direct sunlight for a long period of time and do not point at the sun or a bright light directly. The image may become discolored or the camera may fail to operate properly.

• Do not cover the lens with your fingers or hair when shooting.

Application

141

• Shooting a fast moving object may result in an image slightly distorted from the image displayed on the screen at the time of shooting, or the image may be blurred.

• When the battery level is low, you may not be able to save shot photos or videos. Check the battery level before using the camera.

• Shot photos or videos may differ from the actual subjects in brightness or color tone.

• You can hear shutter sound even when the terminal is set to Silent mode.

Maps

"Maps" enables you to show your current location, search for other locations and routes. Open Google Maps to show your approximate location according to information received from the nearest base station. Your current location will be updated more accurately if your current position is determined by GPS.

Note

• Activate the GPS function before getting your current location.

• Google Maps needs to be data connectable (LTE/3G/GPRS), or connected to Wi-Fi.

• Google Maps does not work for all nations or regions.

• Your current location may not be detected with just a 3G/Wi-Fi connection.

Location Information Services

Mobile networks, Wi-Fi and GPS methods are available to obtain current locations. With Wi-Fi current locations can be speedily determined, but accuracy is lacking. If GPS is used, it takes more time, but accurate positioning can be obtained. When determining current locations, activate both Wi-Fi and GPS to utilize both of their advantages.

What is GPS

• GPS is a function that receives signals from GPS satellites for obtaining the location of the terminal.

• It cannot be used as navigation devices for aircraft, vehicles and people or as a high-precision GPS for measurement. Please note that DOCOMO shall not bear responsibility for damages which are pure economic losses which are generated by opportunities missed to confirm positioning results and missed communications due to external factors (including exhausted batteries) such as malfunctions, improper operations and power outages of the terminal if it is used for these purposes or even if it is not used for these purposes.

• Since GPS is governed by the United States Department of Defense, the GPS signals might be controlled (degradation of accuracy, signal blackouts, etc.) according to national security reasons of the US. Also even if positioning is done in the same locations and environments, identical

results may not be obtained due to the differences in signal conditions caused by the locations of the satellites.

• Since GPS uses signals from satellites, in the following environments there are locations where signals cannot be received or reception is poor. Thus, the range of error of location information may be over 300 m.

- In the midst of or underneath dense tree growth, in areas lined with buildings or dense residential areas

- Inside or underneath buildings

- Inside of underground tunnels, underground and underwater

- Near high-voltage lines

- Inside of cars and trains

- In poor weather such as heavy rainfall and snow

- Inside of bags and boxes

- Hindrances (people and things) around the terminal
