Manual for

DoCoMo
W-CDMA System
Thank you very much for choosing the FOMA N903i.
Please read this manual and users guides that came with the battery pack and other devices
carefully before or during use so that you can use your FOMA terminal correctly. If you have any
inquiries regarding this manual, contact the number listed in “For inquiries” on the back cover.
FOMA N903i is your efficient partner. Please use it carefully and habitually.
Before using your FOMA terminal
dThe FOMA network operates using radio waves. In a place where the reception is very poor, such as
in a tunnel, in a building and under the ground, or out of range, you cannot make a phone call. You
may also have difficulty making a phone call from upper floors of tall buildings, even if there is no
obvious physical obstruction. And even if the reception is good (i.e. the signal strength indicator
shows 3 bars) and you do not move during a call, you may still find that your call is cut off.
dWhen you use your FOMA terminal in public places, particularly where it is crowded or quiet, take
care not to disturb people around you.
dSince the FOMA terminal uses radio waves to communicate, there is always a risk that your call is
wiretapped by a third party. However, the W-CDMA system automatically supports the tapping
prevention for all calls. Even if a third party succeeds in intercepting your call, only incomprehensible
noise will be heard.
dThe FOMA terminal communicates via radio waves by converting voices into digital signals. If you
move into an area where the reception is poor, the digital signals may not be accurately decoded
and what you hear may differ slightly from what it actually is.
dIt is your responsibility to back up all data stored on your FOMA terminal. Under no circumstances
shall NTT DoCoMo be held liable for any loss of or damage to data stored on your FOMA terminal.
dThe user hereby agrees that the user shall be solely responsible for the result of use of TLS/SSL.
Neither DoCoMo nor the certifier as listed herein makes any representation or warranty as for
security in the use of TLS/SSL. In the event that the user shall sustain damage or loss due to the use
of TLS/SSL, neither DoCoMo nor the certifier shall be responsible for any damage or loss.
Certifier: VeriSign Japan K.K., Betrusted Japan Co., Ltd., GeoTrust Japan Co., Ltd., RSA Security
Japan Ltd., SECOM Trust.net Co., Ltd.
dThe FOMA terminal is available in FOMA Plus-Area.
The FOMA terminal can be used only via the FOMA network provided by DoCoMo and DoCoMo’s
roaming area.
If you have never used the FOMA terminal, read this manual in the following steps. Doing so will help
you understand the preparation and basic operations for using the FOMA terminal.
1. Insert and charge the battery pack (p.42)
2. Turn on the FOMA terminal, make the initial settings, and check your own number (p.46)
3. Check the functions of the phone keys (p.26)
4. Check the meanings of icons displayed on the screen (p.30)
5. Check how to use the menus (pp.33, 34)
6. Check how to make/receive a call (p.51)
For the first-time users of the FOMA terminal
