Contents/Precautions
The terminal 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 the upper floors of
high-rise apartments or buildings, even if
there are 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-signal icon in the terminals
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 the 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 on a regular basis
or save to an external recording medium such
as a microSD card or PC. 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.
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 FOMA Plus-Area and FOMA
HIGH-SPEED Area support.
The terminal does not support i-mode sites
(programs) or i-
D
ppli.
About using the terminal
6
Contents/Precautions
The terminal automatically performs
communication for synchronizing data,
checking the latest software version, and
maintaining a connection with the server, and
for other purposes. If you transmit a large
amount of data, such as when downloading
applications or watching video, a packet
communication charge becomes high.
Subscription to Packet Pack/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.
Public mode (Driving mode) is not supported.
Setting the terminal to silent mode does not
mute sounds for shutter, playback of video or
music, dialpad operation sound during a call,
sound emitted when [End call] is tapped, etc.
The name of the operator is displayed on the
lock screen (P.40).
To check your phone number (own number),
from the Home screen,

If available memory in the microSD card or
the terminal is low, running applications may
not operate correctly. In that case, delete the
saved data.
You can update software on the terminal to
the latest one (P.206, P.212).
By upgrading Android software, 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 a docomo
nano UIM card. If you have a docomo mini
UIM card, UIM, or FOMA card, bring it to a
docomo Shop to replace it with a docomo
nano UIM card.
Set password etc. for screen lock to ensure the
security of your terminal for its loss (P.165).
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
Gmail or Google Play, or SNS, etc.
For services provided by Google, refer to
Google Terms of Service. For other web
services, refer to each terms of service.
Applications 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.

With VoLTE, you can make high-quality voice and
video calls. You can also switch between voice and
video calls.
To use VoLTE, both parties must meet the following
requirements.
- Both terminals support VoLTE.
- Both parties are in a Xi service area. (VoLTE is not
available outside a Xi service area or during
international roaming.)
- "Network mode" in "Mobile networks" is set to
"LTE(preferred)/3G/GSM" or "LTE/3G" (P.188), and
"Network mode" is set to "VoLTE/3G" (P.88).
On a video call, both speakers can see each other
while talking.
- When you make a video call, voice call and packet
communication charges will apply. When you
receive a video call, packet communication
charges will apply.
- Video calls are based on best-effort
communication (which optimizes transmission
speed depending on how busy your network is),
so the quality of video images varies depending on
your network environment.
- If your terminal failed to switch to a video call
during a voice call, a massage appears on the
screen indicating that the failure occurred, and the
voice call is maintained.
- Since imaging for video call varies by terminal
model, your terminal and the other party's
terminal may show different image in scope.

Emergency call
Note
This terminal supports "Emergency call location
information". If you use the terminal to place a call to
emergency numbers such as 110, 119, or 118, the
information of a location where you are calling from
(location information) is automatically notified to the
Emergency call acceptance organization such as the
Police Station.
The Emergency call acceptance organization may not
be able to figure out your exact location depending
on the location where you place a call or radio wave
condition.
If you make a call hiding your caller ID, such as by
entering a phone number with "184" for each call, the
location information and phone number are not
notified. However, the Emergency call acceptance
organization may decide to obtain the location
information and phone number regardless of your
settings when they consider it is necessary for
lifesaving, etc. Note that the areas/time for which the
"Emergency call location information" is ready to be
used vary depending on the preparatory state of each
Emergency call acceptance organization.
When calling 110, 119 or 118 for emergency from the
terminal, tell that you are calling from a mobile
phone, and give your phone number and your
current location precisely for checking callback from
the police/fire department. Also, make a point to call
in a stationary position to prevent the call from being
dropped. Do not power off the terminal for at least
10 minutes after the emergency call just in case the
Police or Fire/Ambulance may have to get in contact
with you.
Note that you may not connect to the local Fire
Department or Police Station depending on where
you are calling from.
Information
If docomo nano UIM card is not inserted to the
terminal, emergency calls (110, 119, 118) cannot be
made in Japan.
You can make an emergency call by tapping
[Emergency call] on the lock screen. In Japan,
however, on the PIN code entry screen, while PIN
code locked or while PUK locked, emergency calls
(110, 119, 118) cannot be made.
If you call to emergency numbers with Call Blocking
is ON, the setting turns off automatically.
Emergency call may not be available via some
networks.
The video call feature does not support emergency
calls to 110, 119, and 118.

Your current location can be positioned using
GPS, Wi-Fi, or mobile network.
The terminal has a GPS receiver that uses
satellite signals to calculate your location.
Some GPS features use the Internet. Data
rates and charges may apply.
When you use GPS function to find your
location, make sure you have a clear view of
the sky. If GPS does not find your location
after several minutes, move to another
location. To help the search, stand still and do
not cover the GPS antenna section (P.30). The
first time you use the GPS, it may take about
10 minutes to find your location.
Use the GPS system with great care. DOCOMO
is not liable for any damage caused by
abnormality of the system.
Note that DOCOMO shall have no liabilities for
any purely economic loss including those due
to missing a chance to check the
measurement (communication) results
because of external factors (including the
running out of the battery), such as a failure,
malfunction, or any other problems of the

Some wireless communications products
(mobile phone, data detectors and some
others) block satellite signals and also causes
instability of signal reception.
Some map displays based on location
information (latitude/longitude information)
may be not accurate due to some countries'
or regions' regulations.
Where radio waves are difficult to
receive
Note that radio waves may not be received
or it may be difficult to receive radio waves
in the following conditions, since GPS uses
radio waves from a satellite.
Inside or immediately under a building
Inside a bag or box
Inside or under a thick covering of trees
In a car, inside a train compartment
When there are obstructions (people or
objects) near the terminal
Inside a basement or tunnel, and below
the ground or water
In buildings-clustered or residential area
Near a high-voltage cable
Bad weather such as heavy rain or snow

Security codes for the terminal
Some functions provided for convenient use
of the terminal require the security code to
use them. Besides the security code for
locking the terminal, the network security
code necessary for the network services etc.
are available. Make use of the terminal using
an appropriate security code according to
the purpose.
Notes on the security codes
Avoid using a number that is easy to
guess, such as "birth date", "part of your
phone number", "street address number
or room number", "1111", and "1234".
Make sure to make a note of the security
code you set lest you should forget it.
Be very careful not to let others know your
security code. If your security code is
known by anyone else, DOCOMO shall
have no liability for any loss due to any
unauthorized use of it.
If you forget your security codes, you must
bring your official identification (such as
driver's license), the terminal, and
docomo nano UIM card with you to the
nearest docomo Shop. For details, contact
the "General Inquiries" on the last page.
The PUK code is written on the
subscription form (copy for customer)
handed at the subscription in the
docomo Shop. If you subscribed other
than docomo Shop, you must bring your
official identification (such as driver's
license), the docomo nano UIM card with
you to the nearest docomo Shop or
contact the "General Inquiries" on the last
page.
Network security code
The network security code is a 4-digit
number necessary for identification or using
the docomo Network Services at reception
of your request in docomo Shop, or at
docomo Information Center or "
お客様サ
ポート
(Customer support)". It can be set
any number at the subscription and also
changed later by yourself.
For details on network security code, refer
to NTT DOCOMO website.

Settings
PIN code
You can set up a security code called a PIN
code for your docomo nano UIM card. The
code is set to "0000" at the time of
subscription; however, you can change the
code by yourself.
PIN code is a 4- to 8-digit security number
(code) that must be entered for user
confirmation to prevent unauthorized use
of docomo nano UIM card by a third party
every time you insert the docomo nano UIM
card into the terminal or when the terminal
is powered on. Entering the PIN code
enables making/receiving calls and
terminal operation.
If you use a newly purchased terminal
with docomo nano UIM card you have
been using, use the PIN code set on the
former terminal. If you did not change the
setting, the code is "0000".
If you enter a wrong PIN code 3 times
consecutively, the PIN code is locked and
cannot be used anymore. In this case,
unlock with "Personal Unblocking Key
(PUK code)" (P.164).
Personal Unblocking Key (PUK code)
The PUK code is an 8-digit number for
canceling the locked PIN code. The PUK
code cannot be changed by yourself.
If you failed to enter PUK code 10 times
consecutively, the docomo nano UIM
card is locked. Please contact a docomo
Shop.

Continuous stand-by time is an estimate of
the stand-by time when radio signal
reception is normal. Stationary continuous
stand-by time is the estimated average
operation time when radio signal reception is
normal.
In certain circumstances, the stand-by time
may drop to as low as half the time shown
due to the battery charge, function settings,
temperature, or radio signal reception in the
area (no reception or weak).
Continuous call time is an estimate of the
operation time for calling when radio signal
reception is normal.
A use of the Internet reduces the actual call
(communication)/stand-by time.
Composing messages or activating the
camera or applications also reduces call
(communication)/stand-by time even if you
do not call or use the Internet.
Charging time is an estimate of the time
required to charge a completely empty
internal battery. Under low temperature,
charging may require longer time.
