The tablet supports LTE, W-CDMA, GSM/GPRS and Wireless
LAN systems.
Because the tablet relies on radio signals, it cannot be used in a
place with no signal (such as tunnels, underground or in
buildings), in places with a weak signal or outside the Xi service
area or FOMA service area. You may not use the tablet in the
upper floors of a building even with no obstructions in sight.
There may also be times when the signal is strong and you are
not moving but the call is interrupted.
Because the tablet uses radio waves, it is possible for a third
party to listen in on a conversation. However, since the LTE,
W-CDMA and GSM/GPRS systems automatically apply a private
call feature to every call, a third party that tries to listen in only
hears noise.
The tablet converts conversations into a digital signal and sends
it to the other party over the radio. If the signal cannot be
reconverted properly by such as moving to an area with a weak
signal, the voice may not be heard correctly.
Take notes of information (e.g. the phonebook, calendar, note,
voice memo, answering memo) stored on the tablet or save the
information to external memory devices such as microSD Cards
and PCs periodically. DOCOMO shall not be liable for any loss of
content due to a failure, repair, model change or other handling
of the tablet.
As with PCs, some user-installed apps etc. may disrupt the
stability of your tablet performance or unexpectedly transmit
information via the Internet causing improper use of your location
information and personal information stored on the tablet.
Therefore, verify the supplier and operating conditions of the
apps to be used before using them.
The tablet supports the FOMA Plus-Area and the FOMA
HIGH-SPEED Area.
When the available space on the microSD Card or the tablet is
insufficient, apps in use may not work properly. In this case,
delete saved data.
The tablet does not support i-mode functions (connection to
i-mode website (program), i-appli, etc.).
The tablet does not support providers other than sp-mode,
mopera U and Business mopera Internet.
In the home screen, [R]/[Settings]/[Profile] to check your
phone number (own number).
The tablet does not support Public Mode (Drive Mode).
Setting the tablet to the manner mode does not mute sounds
(camera shutter sound etc.) other than the ringtone, operation
sound, and various notification sounds.
The tablet automatically performs communication for some
functions, for example, to synchronize data, check the latest
software version or maintain connection with the server. Also,
making a communication with large-volume data such as
downloading apps or watching videos will lead to higher packet
communication charges. Subscription to flat-rate packet
communication services is highly recommended.
Even while the Wi-Fi connection is set, packet communication
charges may be incurred depending on the app and service you
use.
Software on the tablet can be updated to up-to-date status
(nP. 88 “Updating software”).
For details on software version of your tablet nP. 72 “Device
info”
New functions may be added to the tablet or the operation
method may change by upgrading the OS version. Check the
DOCOMO website for the latest information of additions and
changes.
If the OS is upgraded, some apps used in the previous OS
version may not be available or some unintended bugs may
occur.
Secure the security of the tablet by setting Screen lock in case
you lose it (nP. 68 “Lock & security”).
If your tablet is lost, change your password for each account
using a PC to prevent other persons from using Google services
such as Gmail and Google Play™, and services such as SNS.
Apps and their service contents are subject to change without
prior notice.
Read the terms of service of Google Inc. for details on Google
services. Also, read each terms of service for details on other
web services.
Subscription to sp-mode is required to use tethering.
Packet communication charges when using tethering differ
according to your payment plans. Subscription to flat-rate packet
communication services is highly recommended.
Since Mobacas is a service that collaborates with
communications, packet communication charges are incurred
when using this service. Subscription to flat-rate packet
communication services is recommended.
For details on usage fees etc., refer to the following website.
(https://www.nttdocomo.co.jp/)(in Japanese only)
The display is manufactured using high-precision technology, but
it may contain dots that fail to light or that remain permanently lit
on some areas. This is a characteristic of LCD and not a
malfunction.
The battery is built into the tablet and you cannot replace it by
yourself.
Note that DOCOMO shall not guarantee operation of
commercially available optional parts.

For details on the estimated charge time nP. 91 “Main
specifications”
The battery can also be charged with the tablet turned on (While
charging, the battery icon appears with [w] superimposed).
Do not charge for a long time with the power left turned on. If the
tablet is left turned on after charging is complete, the internal
battery charge level decreases.
In this case, an AC or DC adapter (sold separately) charges the
battery again. However, depending on the time when the tablet is
disconnected from the AC or DC adapter, the battery charge
level may be low or the battery may only be usable for a short
time.
If the tablet is left for a long time even after the charging is
completed, the battery level may decrease.
When the battery is empty and the tablet is being charged, the
charging lamp may not illuminate immediately. However,
charging is in progress.

If the battery empty alert is displayed and the power cannot be
turned on, charge the battery for a while.
While charging, the tablet may not turn on even when the
charging lamp is illuminated in red. Charge longer and try turning
power on again.
Frequently recharging the battery when its power is still
remaining enough may shorten the usable life of the internal
battery. It is recommended to use the battery to a certain level
(e.g. after the battery level decreases) before recharging.
When the battery becomes warm, charging may automatically
stop even if the battery has not been fully charged. Charging
automatically resumes after the temperature lowers to an
appropriate temperature.
If you watch Mobacas, receive contents, etc. while charging,
move the tablet as far away as possible from the power plug
section of the AC adapter.
■Estimated battery life when fully charged
For details on the battery life nP. 91 “Main specifications”
■Internal battery usable life
Internal battery is a consumable product. Battery life per charge
is gradually reduced every time the battery is charged.
When battery life per charge is reduced to about half of the
default time, this means that the internal battery is approaching
the end of its usable life. In this case, it is recommended to
replace the battery as soon as possible. For details on replacing
the internal battery, contact the number listed in “Repairs” (in
Japanese only) on the last page or a repair counter that
DOCOMO specifies.
If you watch TV etc. while charging for a long time, the usable life
of the internal battery may become shorter than estimated.
