Using au災害対策 (au Disaster Countermeasure)

This is an application in which you can use Disaster Message Board and Early warning mail (earthquake early warnings and disaster/evacuation information). The emergency early warning mail is a service that distributes emergency earthquake information or disaster evacuation information to all au cell phones in specified areas simultaneously. When you receive emergency earthquake information, ensure your safety and take proper action according to the situation around you.

1 From the Home screen, [ ]→[au災害対策 (au Disaster

Countermeasure)].

❖Information

･ Reception of emergency early warning mail is notified by a

special warning tone. It is not possible to change the warning tone.

･ Emergency earthquake information is sent to areas where

strong quakes (over 4 degrees) are expected when the earthquake whose the maximum seismic intensity 5 lower is anticipated occurs.

･ Immediately after an earthquake occurs, quakes (P waves

and initial tremors) near the epicenter are detected and position, scale, and expected strength are automatically calculated and notification is sent as soon as possible within a few seconds to tens of seconds before the strong quakes (S waves and major tremors) caused by the earthquake start.

･ Emergency earthquake information may not arrive before

strong tremors in arrears near the epicenter.

･ Disaster evacuation information is a service that distributes

bulletins concerning residents' safety including evacuation advisories, evacuation orders and other warnings issued by the national and local governments.

･ The service is available only in Japan (it cannot be used

overseas).

･ No information fee or communication charge is required for

receiving emergency early warning mail.

･ KDDI is not liable for damages suffered by customers

resulting from the service's information, lack or delay in the information caused by transmission or system breakdowns, or other events that are outside the responsibility of KDDI.

･ Refer to the Japan Meteorological Agency web page for

details about distribution of emergency earthquake information.

http://www.jma.go.jp/

･ You cannot receive emergency early warning mail when your

cell phone is turned off or during a call.

･ Emergency early warning mail may not be received when

your cell phone is communicating such as while sending/ receiving SMS (C-mail)/e-mail or using the browser, or if you are in a place where signal does not reach even in the service area (e.g. in a tunnel, basement) or in a place with a poor reception.

･ You cannot receive the emergency early warning mail that the

reception is failed.

･ This delivery system is different from emergency earthquake

information provided through TV, radio, or other communication procedures, which means that the time the emergency earthquake information arrives may vary.

･ Information from someplace other than your current location

may be received.
