Be sure to check the following points before and after charging.• Never charge the battery if the main unit is wet. Doing so might cause electric shock or short circuit resulting in re or a fault.• Check that the main unit is not wet. If you are charging the battery just after the product gets wet, drain water well and wipe remaining water o󰮏 with a clean dry cloth before connecting it to the specied charging equipment (sold separately) or the desktop holder.• Do not touch the specied charging equipment (sold separately) or desktop holder with wet hands. Doing so might cause electric shock.• Do not splash water over the specied charging equipment (sold separately) and desktop holder when using them. Do not use them near water such as in a bathroom, shower room, kitchen or washroom. Doing so might cause re, electric shock or a fault. Do not bring them into a bathroom, etc. even when you are not charging with them.Notes on Using Bluetooth®/Wireless LAN Functions• The Bluetooth® function and the wireless LAN function of this product conforms to the domestic standards of Japan, FCC standards, and EC directives, and has been certied.• The 2.4 GHz band used by wireless LAN and Bluetooth® devices is shared by various other devices. For this reason, the communication speed and connectable range may be decreased, or disconnection may occur, due to interference by other devices.• Do not use this product in places where electromagnetic waves are generated or near electric products, AV and OA equipment, or other magnetized devices.• Subjecting this product to magnetic or electrical noise might increase noise and prevent it from performing communications. (This product is particularly susceptible to noise when it used near a microwave oven.)• Using this product near a TV, radio or similar appliance might cause reception interference and disrupt TV images.• Searching might not be successful if there are multiple wireless LAN access points near to the product or the same channel is being used.• The wireless LAN function cannot be used in airplane. Be sure to turn o󰮏 the power even in a Wi-Fi compliant airplane. Some airline companies, however, allow their passengers to use cell phones. For details, contact the airline company you use.• The communication speed and connectable range vary depending on the distance between communication devices, obstacles and the Bluetooth® devices used.

In this frequency band, other similar wireless stations, in-plant wireless stations for mobile unit identication that require a license for use, such as factory production lines, specic small power wireless stations that do not require licenses, amateur wireless stations (collectively called "other wireless stations" from here on) are operated in addition to home electrical appliances such as microwave ovens, devices for industrial, scientic and medical devices.1. Before using the product, make sure that "other wireless stations" are not in operation nearby.2. In the event that instances of radio wave interference have occurred between this product and "other wireless stations", immediately either relocate this product or stop operation of the device (stop emission of radio waves).3. If you are unclear on any points or are troubled by anything, contact an au shop or Customer Service Center.Bluetooth® and wireless LAN functions of this product use frequencies in the 2.4 GHz band.2.4FH1/DS4/OF4• Bluetooth® function: 2.4FH1 This product uses the 2.4 GHz band. FH-SS is used as the modulation scheme. The interference distance is about 10 m or less.• Wireless LAN function: 2.4DS/OF4 This product uses the 2.4 GHz band. DS-SS and OFDM are used as the modulation schemes. The interference distance is about 40 m or less.• Bandwidth to use: Full band This means that full band can be used, and that bands of mobile unit identication devices can be avoided.• Available channels di󰮏er depending on the country.• For use in airplane, check with the airline company in advance.   
33memo• Connections between this product and all other Bluetooth® and wireless LAN devices have not been conrmed. Therefore, connections with all Bluetooth® and wireless LAN devices are not guaranteed.• This product supports security features for wireless communications that are compliant with the Bluetooth® and wireless LAN standard specications, but the security may not be su󰮐cient depending on the usage environment and conguration. Be careful when making data communication using Bluetooth® or wireless LAN function.• Wireless LAN has the advantage that it can be freely connected anywhere within the radio wave range, as it uses radio waves for exchanging information. At the same time, there is a risk that a malicious third party may obtain unauthorized access if security settings have not been congured. You are recommended to congure security settings before using wireless LAN at your decision and responsibility.• The Company assumes no responsibility for leakage of data or information that may occur during Bluetooth®/wireless LAN communication.• Since Bluetooth® and wireless LAN functions use the same frequency band, using the both functions at the same may cause radio wave interference resulting in decreased communication speed or disconnection from the network. If connection fails, stop using either of the Bluetooth® and wireless LAN functions.Notes on Packet Communication Charge• Since constant Internet connection is possible with this product, packet communication may be performed automatically by some applications, resulting in high packet communication charges. Therefore, subscription to a packet communication charge discount service or at late plan is recommended.• To browse websites, download applications, communicate using applications, send/receive e-mails, and congure various settings, connection to the Internet is required, to which packet communication charge applies.* Packet communication charge does not apply to Wi-Fi® connection.

Some applications might cause virus infection, damage various data, and send out your location information, usage history or personal information stored in your cell phone via the Internet. • The Company assumes no responsibility for any operation problems that might be caused by applications you have installed. In such case, you may be charged a repair fee even during the warranty period. • The Company assumes no responsibility for any disadvantage brought to you or any third party by applications you have installed. • Insertion of a microSD memory card is necessary to use some applications.• Some applications prohibit the product from entering sleep mode while they are active, or rapidly drain the battery while running in the background.• Operation procedures and screen appearances of the applications preinstalled in this product and those installed by you are subject to change without notice as a result of version upgrade. In addition, operation procedures described in this manual may di󰮏er from the actual procedures.
