Contents/Precautions
･ This terminal supports LTE, W-CDMA, GSM/GPRS, Wireless
LAN System.
･ Because your terminal uses wireless transmission, it may
not function in locations where it is difficult for radio waves
to penetrate, such as tunnels, underground passages and
some buildings, in areas where radio waves are weak, or out
of Xi and FOMA service area. Even when you are high up in
a tall building or condominium and nothing blocks your
view outside, your terminal may not be able to receive or
transmit signals. Also, communication may be interrupted
even when there are strong radio waves with 4 signal status
icons on the terminal and you are not moving (traveling).
･ Your terminal performs wireless communication. When you
are operating your terminal while moving to a location
subject to weaker radio wave conditions, the transmitted
digital data may not be correctly decoded and as a result the
decoded data may differ somewhat from the actual data.
･ Maintain a separate record of the data (contacts, schedule,
memos, etc.) you saved in the terminal. 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.
･ In the terminal, as it is for a PC, some applications that you
install may give instability of the operation, or may send
your location information or personal information
registered to the terminal to outside via the Internet and the

sound for Bluetooth Low Energy setting are emitted.
･ You can check your own phone number in the following
step.
From the Application menu, [docomo phonebook] → [My
profile]
･ The terminal automatically performs communication for
some functions, for example, to synchronize data, check the
latest software or maintain connection with the server. 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.
･ The software on the terminal can be updated with the latest
information.

・ Frequency bands
Frequency bands used by the terminal Bluetooth function
are as below.
Frequency band : 2400 MHz band
Modulation : FH-SS method and other method (method
other than DS-SS method/DS-FH method/FH-OFDM
composite method/OFDM method)
Expected interference distance : 10 m or shorter
Whether to change frequency : All bandwidths between
2400 MHz and 2483.5 MHz are used, and the bandwidth used
by mobile object identification devices cannot be avoided.
Cautions on using Bluetooth devices
In the bandwidth used by the product, in addition to home
electric appliances such as a microwave oven and
industrial/scientific/medical devices, in-plant radio
stations used to identify mobile objects used in
production lines of a factory that require a license,
specified low power radio stations, or amateur radio
stations that do not require a license (hereafter "other
radio stations") can be in operation.
1. Before using the product, check whether other radio
stations are in operation in your neighborhood.
2. If radio wave interference occurs between the product
and "other radio stations", use the terminal in a
different location or "Turn the power OFF" to avoid the
radio wave interference.
3. For details, contact "General Inquiries" on the last page
of this manual.
◆ Wireless LAN (WLAN)
・ Wireless LAN (WLAN) exchanges information using radio
waves, and allows you to freely establish LAN connection if
you are within an area where radio wave reaches. On the
other side, if you communicate without appropriate
security settings, communications may be intercepted or
hacked by malicious parties. It is recommended to make
necessary security settings on your judgement and
responsibility.
・ Wireless LAN
Do not use wireless LAN in a place where magnetized by
electric products, AV, OA equipment, etc. or where
electromagnetic wave is generated.
- If magnetism or electrostatic noise affects the terminal,
noise may be increased or communication may not be
available (especially when using microwave oven, it may
affect the terminal).
- Using near TV or radio may cause poor reception or TV
screen may be blurred.
- When multiple wireless LAN access points exist near the
terminal and they use the same channel, search may not
be performed correctly.
