Important Product Information

General Use

  • If your USIM Card or handset (with USIM Card inserted) is lost or stolen, suspend your service immediately. For details, contact WILLCOM Service Center.
  • We are not liable for any damages resulting from accidental loss/alteration of handset/SD Card files or settings. Keep a separate copy of contacts and other important information.
  • Handset transmissions/One Seg reception may be disrupted inside buildings, tunnels or underground, or when moving into/out of such places; may affect calls or One Seg images/video streams.
  • Use handset without disturbing others.
  • Handsets are radios as stipulated by the Radio Law. Under the Radio Law, handsets must be submitted for inspection upon request.
  • Handset use near landlines, TVs or radios may cause interference.
  • Beware of eavesdropping.
    Because this service is completely digital, the possibility of signal interception is greatly reduced. However, some transmissions may be overheard.
    Eavesdropping
    Deliberate/accidental interception of communications constitutes eavesdropping.
  • Beware of harmful/malicious websites. Take added care when posting personal information.
  • An export license may be required to carry handset into other countries if it is to be used by or transferred to another person. However, no such license is required when taking handset abroad for personal use on a vacation or business trip and then bringing it back. Export control regulations in the United States provide that an export license granted by the US government is required to carry handset into Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Sudan or Syria.

Heat from Handset Use

  • Handset internal temperature may increase depending on usage or environment, causing housing to heat up. (Handset may stop charging or Display brightness may be adjusted for safety.) After a period of handset use under such conditions, warning appears and handset shuts down after approximately 3 minutes. To lower internal temperature and prevent automatic shutdown, exit all applications and activate Screen lock.
  • After a period of Camera use at high internal temperature, warning appears and handset automatically shuts down. (Shot image is saved.)

Wi-Fi (Wireless LAN)

Wireless LAN (hereafter "Wi-Fi") uses radio waves to enable communication between compatible devices within range. However, it is advisable for the user to configure security settings to avoid risk of data interception.

  • Do not use Wi-Fi near electrical appliances, audiovisual equipment or office automation equipment; may affect Wi-Fi transmission speed, availability, clarity, etc. (Especially when a microwave oven is in use.)
  • If there are multiple access points nearby, handset may not detect access points correctly.

■Precautions

The frequency band utilized by handset Wi-Fi is shared with industrial, scientific or medical equipment, including household microwave ovens, and used by radio stations, amateur radio stations, etc. (hereafter "other radio stations").

1. Before using Wi-Fi, visually check that no other radio stations sharing the same frequency band are in use nearby.

2. Should interference occur between handset and other radio stations, move it to a different location or disable Wi-Fi immediately.

3. For additional information and support, contact WILLCOM Service Center.
