◎For details on Earthquake Early Warning and Tsunami Warning provided
by the Japan Meteorological Agency, refer to the agency’s homepage.
(http://www.jma.go.jp/jma/indexe.html)
Earthquake Early Warning
◎Earthquake Early Warning notifies areas where a strong shaking (Japan
seismic scale 4 or more) is expected when an earthquake whose
maximum Japan seismic scale is predicted of 5-lower or more has been
detected.
◎This service detects an earthquake (P-wave, preliminary tremors) near
the seismic center immediately after the earthquake occurs and
automatically calculates its location, scale and predicted strength of the
shaking. After that, you will be notified of the earthquake as soon as
possible within a few seconds to dozens of seconds before a strong
shaking from the earthquake (S-wave, principal shock) occurs.
◎In the vicinity of the seismic center, a strong shaking may reach you
before Earthquake Early Warning.
◎The Earthquake Early Warning distribution system provided by this
service is different from that provided by TV, radio and other
communication media and thus the arriving time of Earthquake Early
Warning may be different among those media.
Tsunami Warning
◎Tsunami Warning notifies areas including target sea coasts of Major
Tsunami Warning and Tsunami Warning provided by the Japan
Meteorological Agency.
Disaster and Evacuation Information
◎Disaster and Evacuation Information notifies information related to the
safety of citizens, such as evacuation advisories, evacuation orders or
various alarms delivered by the national government or the local
governments.

◎To use this service via Wi-Fi®, making initial settings via 4G (LTE/WiMAX
2+) networks is required.
◎Voice messages can be recorded for up to 30 seconds.
◎Voice messages can be exchanged among au phones as well as other
carriers’ cell phones and PHS devices.
◎Voices may not be heard when the media sound volume is set to low.

Charging
Charging
When you purchase the product, the internal battery is not fully charged. Be
sure to charge the internal battery before use.
•If the performance of the battery does not recover (e.g. the usable time after
each charge has become extremely short), the internal battery may be at the
end of service life. On the home screen, “Apps Sheet” →[Settings] →[About
phone] →[Status] →[Battery status] to check the charging performance of
the internal battery.
•While charging, the charging/incoming indicator illuminates in red, and the
battery icon is displayed with superimposed. When the battery is charged
to approximately 95%, the charging/incoming indicator illuminates in green.
When charging is finished, the charging/incoming indicator goes out.
◎The product may become warm while charging, but this is normal.
◎Depending on the operation procedure and usage environment, the
temperature inside the product may get high and the product may even
get heated. In such case, charging may stop for security reasons.
◎Charging the internal battery while using the camera function etc. may
lengthen the charging time.
◎If you perform various operations with a specified charger (sold
separately) connected to the product, charging/discharging may take
place repeatedly in a short time. Frequently charging the internal battery
shortens its service life.
◎If you charge the internal battery when the battery has run out, the
charging/incoming indicator may not illuminate soon. However, charging
is in progress.
◎If the charging/incoming indicator flashes in red, force the power off (▶P.14)
and turn the product on again. If the indicator continues to flash, stop charging
the internal battery and contact an au shop or the Keitai Guarantee Service
Center.
◎If you stop charging while the charging/incoming indicator still illuminates
during charging, the cell phone may be left not fully charged even if
is displayed on it. In such case, the usage times shorten.
