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 high upper floors of
high-rise apartments or buildings, even if you
can see 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 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 and keep it safely. 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.
You are recommended to save important data to microSD card.
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-
D
ppli.
Content s/Precautio ns

The terminal automatically performs
communication for synchronizing data,
checking the latest software version, maintain
connection with the server, etc. If you
transmit a large amount of data such as
downloading applications or watching video,
a packet communication charge becomes
high. Subscription of 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.
Public mode (Driving mode) is not supported.
Setting the terminal to the silent mode does
not mute sounds for shutter, playback of
video or music, alarm, dial pad touch tones
during a call, sound emitted when tapping
[End call], 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.203, P.209).
By upgrading Android software, the operating system (OS) may be version­upgraded for improving the terminal quality. 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 docomo mini UIM card. If you have a UIM or FOMA card, bring it to a docomo Shop to replace.
Set password etc. for screen lock to ensure the security of your terminal for its loss (P.162).
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, Google Play, etc., Facebook, Twitter, etc.

The Emergency call acceptance organization may not be able to figure out your exact location depending on the location where you place a call or radio wave condition. If you make a call hiding your caller ID, such as by entering a phone number with "184" for each call, the location information and phone number are not notified. However, the Emergency call acceptance organization may decide to obtain the location information and phone number regardless of your settings when they consider it is necessary for lifesaving, etc. Note that the areas/time for which the "Emergency call location information" is ready to be used vary depending on the preparatory state of each Emergency call acceptance organization.
When calling 110, 119 or 118 for emergency from the terminal, tell that you are calling from a mobile phone, and give your phone number and your current location precisely for checking callback from the police/fire department. Also, make a point to call in a stationary position to prevent the call from being dropped. Do not power off the terminal for at least 10 minutes after the emergency call just in case the Police or Fire/Ambulance may have to get in contact with you.
Note that you may not connect to the local Fire Department or Police Station depending on where you are calling from.
