Using 緊急速報メール (Emergency Rapid Mail)
Emergency Rapid Mail is a service that distributes Earthquake Early Warning or Tsunami Warning delivered from the meteorological bureau or Disaster and Evacuation Information
delivered from the government or local public organization to all au cell phones in specified areas simultaneously. When you receive Earthquake Early Warning, ensure your safety and take proper action according to the situation around you. When you receive a Tsunami Warning, draw away from sea coast immediately and evacuate to safe place such as upland or well-built high building.
1 au災害対策 (au Disaster Countermeasure) menuX[緊急
速報メール (Emergency Rapid Mail)]
Information
Reception of Emergency Rapid Mail is notified by a special warning tone and vibration. It is not possible to change the warning tone.
*Earthquake Early Warning is notified by warning tone and voice
sound ("地震です" (It is an earthquake)), and vibration.
Earthquake Early Warning may not arrive before strong
tremors in areas near the epicenter.
Tsunami Warning is a major tidal wave/seismic sea wave
notification delivered from the meteorological bureau to the area including target coast.
Disaster and 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 Rapid 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 Earthquake Early Warning.
http://www.jma.go.jp/
You cannot receive Emergency Rapid Mail when your cell
phone is turned off or during a call.
Emergency Rapid Mail may not be received when your cell
phone is communicating such as while sending/receiving SMS/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 Rapid Mail that the
reception is failed.
This delivery system is different from Earthquake Early
Warning provided through TV, radio, or other communication procedures, which means that the time the Earthquake Early Warning arrives may vary.
Information from someplace other than your current location
may be received.
