Precautions

About using the terminal

The terminal is a SIM lock free phone that supports 5G, LTE, W-CDMA, GSM/GPRS and wireless LAN systems.
Because the terminal uses r adio frequencies, it is not available inside a tunnel, underground, building or other locations where radio waves do not reach, in a place with weak radio waves, or out of 5G service area or LTE service area. Also, it may not be available on the upper floors of high-rise apartments or buildings, even if there are no obstructions around you. Note that calls may be disconnected even when you stay without moving in areas with strong radio wave condition indicated with the 4-signal icon.
Because the 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 a caller moves into an area of poor 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.
For using a nano SIM card and eSIM at the same time, available services, functions, etc. may be restricted. DOCOMO is not liable to any failures or malfunctions.
The terminal supports the function which allows "User" or "Guest" to use the terminal. Therefore some services or applications recognize them as the same user even after the user is switched. DOCOMO shall have no liabilities for any damage or troubles of customer or a third party resulting from using the function (P.225).
Note down the data saved to 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 data resulting from malfunction, repair, changing of the model or other handling of the terminal.
Precautions

Page 7
Verify providers and operating conditions of applications, websites, etc. well before using them. Some user-installed applications or accessed websites 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.
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.
In the initial setting, the applications provided by DOCOMO may be installed automatically. And that incurs the packet communication charge if you use mobile network. Such applications will be selected automatically by predicting your needs based on the information you have offered to DOCOMO upon your consent beforehand or your other information we hold. We manage how to handle your information in an appropriate manner defined by our privacy policy.
Depending on the applications or services you are using, the packet communication charge may be incurred even when communicating via Wi-Fi
If available memory in the microSD card or
®
.
the internal storage is low, running applications may not operate correctly. In that case, delete the saved data.
Set a password etc. for the screen lock to ensure the security of the terminal in case of loss (P.213).
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 using services and applications provided by the third party's including applications provided by Google LLC, confirm the terms and conditions, etc. specified by Google or the providers. DOCOMO assumes no responsibility for any malfunctions resulting from the services and applications.
When a license agreement screen etc. appears, follow the onscreen instructions.
Applications and service contents are subject to change without prior notice.
For details on usage charge, refer to NTT DOCOMO website.
Precautions

Display is manufactured by taking advantage of highly advanced technology but some dots may be always or never lit. Note that, this shows characteristics of the display and not defects in the terminals.
The terminal has an organic EL display. Although an afterimage may occur when the same image has been displayed for a long time, it is not a malfunction. To prevent the display from having afterimages, do not display the same image for a long time.
The screen may become partially dark or the colors may be changed if you set the display brightness to brighter than necessary or use the terminal extremely for a long time. Also, unevenness of colors or brightness, or changes of colors may be found depending on direction you are looking. That is because of the structure of organic EL display, not a malfunction.
DOCOMO is not liable to any failures or malfunctions for commercially available optional equipment.

When answering calls, if you press the earpiece/speaker over your hair, the proximity sensor may have trouble working and may cause failure to answer the call. In this case, please press the earpiece/speaker directly to your ear. When disconnecting (Motion)/muting or rejecting a call, flipping over the terminal on a black desk, etc. may cause the operation (Disconnect (Motion)/Mute, Reject) to fail.
