Contents/Precautions
Using the handset
zThe handset supports LTE, W-CDMA, GSM/GPRS and wireless
LAN systems.
zBecause the handset relies on radio signals, it cannot be used in
a place with no signal (such as tunnels, underground or in
buildings), in places with a weak signal or outside the LTE
service area or FOMA service area. You may not use the
handset in the upper floors of a building even with no
obstructions in sight. There may also be times when the signal is
strong and [
are not moving but the call is interrupted.
zBecause the handset uses radio waves, it is possible for a third
party to listen in on a conversation. However, since the LTE,
W-CDMA and GSM/GPRS systems automatically apply a private
call feature to every call, a third party that tries to listen in only
hears noise.
zThe handset converts conversations into a digital signal and
sends it to the other party over the radio. If the signal cannot be
reconverted properly by such as moving to an area with a weak
signal, the voice may not be heard correctly.
zTake notes of data stored on the handset or save the information
to external memory devices such as microSD Cards and PCs
periodically. DOCOMO shall not be liable for any loss of content
due to a failure, repair, model change or other handling of the
handset.
] (indicating signal status) is displayed, and you
zAs with PCs, some user-installed apps, -accessed websites, etc.
may disrupt the stability of handset performance or unexpectedly
transmit information via the Internet causing improper use of
your location information, personal information stored on the
handset, etc. Therefore, verify the supplier and operating
conditions of the apps, websites, etc. to be used before using
them.
zThe handset automatically performs communication for some
functions, for example, to synchronize data, check the latest
software version or maintain connection with the server. Also,
making a communication with large-volume data such as
downloading apps or watching videos will lead to higher packet
communication charges. Subscription to Packet Pack/flat-rate
packet communication services is highly recommended.
zEven while the Wi-Fi connection is set, packet communication
charges may be incurred depending on the app and service you
use.
zWhen the available space on the microSD Card or the handset is
insufficient, apps in use may not work properly. In this case,
delete saved data.
zFor the purpose of improvement of the product quality and
adding functions, upgrading the operating system (OS) may be
carried out. At that time, the operating method may be changed.
For latest information of adding functions and changing the
operating method, refer to the DOCOMO website.
Also, some apps used in the previous OS version may not be
available or some unintended bugs may occur.
zSecure the security of the handset by setting the password of
Screen lock in case you lose it.
5
Contents/Precautions
zIf your handset is lost, change your password for each service
account and disable authentication using a PC to prevent other
persons from using Google services such as Gmail and Google
Play™, SNS, etc.
zFor using services and apps provided by a third party including
Google LLC, check the terms of service of Google or the
respective providers etc. DOCOMO shall not be liable for any
failure caused by related services and apps.
zIf the terms of service etc. is displayed, follow the instructions on
the screen and operate.
zApps and their service contents are subject to change without
prior notice.
zThe handset does not support providers other than sp-mode,
mopera U and Business mopera Internet.
zFor details on usage fees etc., refer to the DOCOMO website.
zThe display is manufactured using high-precision technology, but
it may contain dots that fail to light or that remain permanently lit
on some areas. This is a characteristic of display and not a
malfunction.
zNote that DOCOMO shall not guarantee operation of
commercially available optional par ts.
