5Contents/PrecautionsContents/Precautions・SO-01E supports LTE, W-CDMA, GSM/GPRS and Wireless LAN Systems.・Because a terminal operates using radio frequencies, it cannot be used inside a tunnel, underground, in a building or other locations where radio waves do not reach the terminal, in locations with weak radio wave condition, or out of Xi/FOMA service area. The services may not be available on high upper floors of high-rise apartments or buildings, even if you can see no obstructions around you. On occasion, your calls may become disconnected even in areas with strong radio wave condition, even if you are not moving, or even if there are 4-antenna marks in the terminal's display.・Because your terminal uses radio waves to communicate, it is possible that a third party may attempt to tap your calls. However, the LTE, W-CDMA, GSM/GPRS system automatically scrambles all calls through a private call feature. Therefore, even if third party successfully intercepts your call, they will only hear noise.・The terminal operates on radio frequencies by converting voice into digital signals. If the caller moves into an area of adverse radio wave condition, the digital signal may not be restored accurately, and the voice received in the call may differ slightly from the actual voice.・Note down the information saved in the terminal in a separate note and keep it safely. 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.・You are recommended to save important data to microSD card.・As with PCs, some user-installed applications may disrupt the stability of the terminal performance, or unexpectedly transmit information via the Internet causing improper use of your location information as well as personal information recorded on the terminal. Therefore, verify the supplier and operating conditions of the applications to be used before using them.・This terminal has Xi Area, FOMA Plus-Area and FOMA HIGH-SPEED Area support.・The terminal does not support i-mode sites (programs) or i-αppli.Before using the terminal
6Contents/Precautions・The terminal automatically performs communication for synchronizing data, checking the latest software version, maintain connection with the server, etc. If you transmit a large amount of data such as downloading applications or watching movie, a packet communication charge becomes high. Subscription of packet flat-rate service is highly recommended.・Public mode (Driving mode) is not supported.・Setting the phone to silent mode does not mute sounds for shutter, playback of video or music, alarm, etc.・The names of the operators are displayed on unlocking screen (P.31).・Your phone number (own number) can be checked as follows:From the Home screen, tap   and tap [Settings]u[About phone]u[Status].・The software version of your terminal can be checked as follows:From the Home screen, tap   and tap [Settings]u[About phone].・You can perform software update by downloading an update file with a PC via Internet and connecting the PC to the terminal. For details, see "Connecting to a PC and updating" (P.236).・By some software updates, the operating system (OS) may be version-upgraded for improving the terminal quality. For this reason, you always need to use the latest OS version. And some applications that used in the previous OS version may not be available or some unintended bugs may occur.・You can use the terminal only with docomo mini UIM card. If you have a UIM or FOMA card, bring it to a docomo Shop to replace.・Set the screen lock to ensure the security of your terminal for its loss. For details, see "Screen lock" (P.142).・If your terminal is lost, change your each account password to invalidate authentication using a PC to prevent other persons from using Google services such as Google Talk, Gmail, Google Play, etc., Facebook, Twitter and mixi.・Google application and service contents are subject to change without prior notice.・The terminal supports only sp-mode, mopera U and Business mopera Internet. Other providers are not supported.・To use tethering, subscription of sp-mode is required.・Packet communication charge when using tethering varies depending on the charging plan you use. Subscription of packet flat-rate service is highly recommended.

16Contents/Precautions■ Common precautions・Do not allow the terminal to get wet.The terminal, battery pack, adapter and docomo mini UIM card are not waterproof. Do not use in a bathroom or other highly humid area or do not let rain touch. Or putting the terminal on your body, humidity of sweat may cause internal corrosion and malfunction. Note that malfunctions, which are determined to be caused by water as result of inspections, are outside the scope of the warranty. Since these conditions are outside of the scope of the warranty, a repair, if at all possible, is charged.・Clean the terminal with a dry soft cloth (such as used for cleaning eyeglasses).- Do not rub it roughly with a dry cloth. The display may be damaged.- Drops of water or dirt left on the display may cause stains.- Do not use alcohol, thinner, benzine, cleaning detergent, etc. to clean the terminal. These chemicals may erase the printing on the terminal or cause discoloration.・Clean the terminals occasionally with a dry cotton swab.If the jack is soiled, connection gets worse and it may cause power to be turned off or insufficient battery charge, so clean the jack with a dry cotton swab etc. When cleaning, be careful not to damage the terminals.・Do not leave the terminal near the air conditioning vent.Extreme temperature changes may produce condensation and corrode the internal parts of the terminal, causing it to malfunction.・Make sure to use the terminal, battery pack, etc. without excessive force.If you put the terminal in a bag full of items or sit down with the terminal in the pocket of your cloth, it may damage the display, internal circuit board and battery pack, causing malfunction.Also, while the external device is connected to the microUSB connecting jack or headset connecting jack, it may damage the connector and cause malfunction.・Do not rub or scratch the display with metal.The display may get scratched and it may cause malfunction or damage.・Read the users manuals supplied with optional devices.■ The terminal precautions・Do not press touch panel surface forcibly, or not operate with a sharp-pointed objects such as nail, ballpoint pen, pin, etc.Doing so may cause damage of touch panel.・Do not use the terminal in extremely hot or cold places.Use the terminal where the temperature ranges between 5℃ and 35℃ and humidity ranges between 45% and 85%.Handling precautions
17Contents/Precautions・Using the terminal near ordinary phone, television or radio may cause interference in these electric appliances. Make sure to move far away from them when using the terminal.・Note down the information saved in the terminal in a separate note and keep it safely.Under no condition will DOCOMO be held liable for any damaged or lost data saved in the terminal.・Do not drop or give a strong impact to the terminal.Doing so may cause malfunction or damage.・Do not plug the connector of the external device into the microUSB connecting jack or headset connecting jack at the slant or pull it while connecting.Doing so may cause malfunction or damage.・The terminal could become warm while in use and charging. This condition is not abnormal.
