About using the terminal

The terminal supports LTE, W-CDMA, GSM/ GPRS and Wireless LAN Systems.

Because a terminal operates using radio frequencies, it cannot be used inside a tunnel, underground, in a building or other locations where radio waves do not reach the terminal, in locations with weak radio wave condition, or out of Xi/FOMA service area. The services may not be available on the upper floors of high-rise apartments or buildings, even if there are no obstructions around you. On occasion, your calls may become disconnected even in areas with strong radio wave condition, even if you are not moving, or even if there are 4-signal icon in the terminals display.

Because your terminal uses radio waves to communicate, it is possible that a third party may attempt to tap your calls. However, the LTE, W-CDMA, GSM/GPRS system automatically scrambles all calls through a private call feature. Therefore, even if the third party successfully intercepts your call, they will only hear noise.

The terminal operates on radio frequencies by converting voice into digital signals. If the caller moves into an area of adverse radio wave condition, the digital signal may not be restored accurately, and the voice received in the call may differ slightly from the actual voice.

Note down the information saved in the terminal in a separate note on a regular basis or save to an external recording medium such as a microSD card or PC. Note that DOCOMO assumes no responsibility for any loss of saved contents of data resulting from malfunction, repair, changing of the model or other handling of the terminal.

As with PCs, some user-installed applications may disrupt the stability of the terminal performance, or unexpectedly transmit information via the Internet causing improper use of your location information as well as personal information recorded on the terminal. Therefore, verify the supplier and operating conditions of the applications to be used before using them.

This terminal has FOMA Plus-Area and FOMA HIGH-SPEED Area support.

The terminal does not support i-mode sites

(programs) or i- ppli.

Contents/Precautions 5

The terminal automatically performs communication for synchronizing data, checking the latest software version, and maintaining a connection with the server, and for other purposes. If you transmit a large amount of data, such as when downloading applications or watching video, a packet communication charge becomes high. Subscription to Packet Pack/packet flat-rate service is highly recommended.

Depending on the applications or service you use, packet communication charge may be applied even in Wi-Fi communication.

Since Mobacas is a service linking communication, using the service requires packet communication charge. Subscription to Packet Pack/packet flat-rate service is recommended.

Public mode (Driving mode) is not supported.

Setting the terminal to silent mode does not mute sounds for shutter, playback of video or music, dialpad operation sound during a call or sound emitted when is tapped, etc.

The name of the operator is displayed on the lock screen (P.37).

To check your phone number (own number), from the Home screen,

u[Settings]u[About phone]u[Status] to

see "My phone number".

To check the software version, from the Home screen, u[Settings]u[About phone].

If available memory in the microSD card or the terminal is low, running applications may not operate correctly. In that case, delete the saved data.

You can update software on the terminal to the latest one (P.206, P.210).

The operating system (OS) may be upgraded via software updates to improve the quality of the terminal. For this reason, you always need to use the latest OS version. And some applications that used in the previous OS version may not be available or some unintended bugs may occur.

You can use the terminal only with a docomo nano UIM card. If you have a docomo mini UIM card, UIM, or FOMA card, bring it to a docomo Shop to replace it with a docomo nano UIM card.

Set password etc. for screen lock to ensure the security of your terminal for its loss (P.168).

If your terminal is lost, change your each account password to invalidate authentication using a PC to prevent other persons from using Google services such as Gmail or Google Play, or SNS, etc.

For services provided by Google, refer to

Google Terms of Service. For other web services, refer to each terms of service.

Applications and service contents are subject to change without prior notice.

Contents/Precautions 6

The terminal supports only sp-mode, mopera U and Business mopera Internet. Other providers are not supported.

To use tethering, subscription of sp-mode is required.

If you want to use tethering, subscription to Packet Pack/packet flat-rate service is strongly recommended.
