DOCOMO W-CDMA System

Thank you for purchasing the docomo STYLE series SH-08A. Make sure thoroughly read this manual and the manuals included with optional accessories before and during use to ensure proper operation. If any of the contents in this manual are unclear, please contact number listed in “General Inquiries” on the back of this manual. The SH-08A is designed to make your everyday life more convenient. Careful use will ensure a long service life.

Using the FOMA terminal

Because it relies on radio signals, the FOMA terminal cannot be used in

places with no signal (such as tunnels, underground, or in buildings), in places with a weak signal or outside the FOMA service area. There may be times when the terminal cannot be used in the upper floors of a building even with no obstructions in sight. There may also be times when the signal is strong and you are not moving but the call is interrupted.

Make sure not to disturb others when using in public places, places with

many people or quiet places.

Because the FOMA terminal uses electrical signals, it is possible for a

third party to listen in on a conversation. However, since the W-CDMA system automatically applies privacy to every call, a third party that tries to listen in only hears static.

The FOMA terminal 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.

Keep a separate memo and note information (e.g. phonebook, schedule,

Text memo, Record message, Voice memo) stored in the FOMA terminal. DOCOMO shall not be liable for any loss of content due to a failure, repair, upgrade or other handling of the FOMA terminal.

Save the important data to the microSD Card. Or, forward and store the

information such as a phonebook, mail and schedule to a PC using DOCOMO keitai datalink.

The user hereby agrees that the user shall be solely responsible for the

result of the use of SSL/TLS. Neither DOCOMO nor the certifier as listed herein makes any representation and warranty as for the security in the use of SSL/TLS. In the event that the user shall sustain damage or loss due to the use of SSL/TLS, neither DOCOMO nor the certifier shall be liable for any such damage or loss.

FeliCa reader/writer

The FeliCa reader/writer function in the FOMA terminal uses weak electric waves in the handling of which does not require a license of radio station.

The frequency in use is the 13.56 MHz band. When another reader/writer is being used nearby, keep enough distance from it. Make sure that there is no radio station using the same frequency band in the nearby area.

Caution

Never use the FOMA terminal that is modified. Using a modified device violates the Radio Law.

The FOMA terminal has acquired the certification of conformity with technical regulations for the specified radio station based on the Radio Law, and the “Technical Conformity Mark ” is printed on the model nameplate of the FOMA terminal as a proof. If the screws of FOMA terminal are removed and a modification is given to the inside, the certification of conformity with technical regulations will become invalid. Never use the FOMA terminal without the valid certification. Doing so violates the Radio Law.

Be careful when using the FOMA terminal while driving a motor vehicle.

While driving, using a mobile phone in hand is regarded as a punishable act. If there is no choice but to receive a call, use hands-free and tell the caller that you will “call back” and then pull over to a safe place to make a call.

Use the FeliCa reader/writer function only in Japan.

The FeliCa reader/writer function in the FOMA terminal conforms to the domestic radio wave standards. Using the function overseas may result in punishment.

Precautions

When your hands or the FOMA terminal are wet, do not attach/remove

the back cover or open/close the external connector terminal cover.

Securely lock the back cover and close the external connector terminal

cover. Even a fine obstacle (one hair, one grain of sand, tiny fiber, etc.) put between contact surfaces may allow water to seep.

If the FOMA terminal gets wet with water or other liquids with the external

connector terminal cover or the back cover open, the liquid may get inside the terminal causing electric shocks or malfunction. Stop using the FOMA terminal, turn off the power, remove the battery pack and contact a repair center that DOCOMO specifies.

The rubber gasket of the external connector terminal cover and the back

cover play an important role in maintaining waterproof performance. Do not remove or scratch them. Also, prevent dust from adhering to them. If the rubber gasket of the external connector terminal cover or the back cover is damaged or deformed, replace it at a repair center that DOCOMO specifies.

Do not insert sharp objects through external connector terminal cover

and back cover gaps. May damage the rubber gasket and allow water to seep.

If the back cover is damaged, replace it. Water may seep inside from a

damaged section causing troubles such as electric shocks or corrosion of the battery.

Do not use the FOMA terminal underwater (including opening/closing

and key operations). May cause malfunction.

Do not apply water flow stronger than allowed (over 6 liters/min.). May

cause malfunction though SH-08A provides waterproof performance of IPX5.
