General Notes
Using Your Handset
• The handset employs radio waves. Signals may be disrupted
even within service areas if you are indoors, underground, inside
a tunnel or inside a vehicle. If you move to a location with poor
signal reception, a call may be suddenly cut off.
• When using the handset in public places, take care not to annoy
other people around you. Use of the handset is prohibited in some
public places such as in theatres or on buses and trains.
• The handset is a radio transceiver under Japanese Radio Law. You
may be requested to submit the handset for inspection based on
this law.
• Use of the handset near a landline phone, TV or radio may affect
the image and sound quality of the equipment.
• The handset employs a digital system to maintain a high level of
communication quality even at very low signal levels. However,
calls may be suddenly cut off when the signal strength becomes
too weak.
• The digital system provides a high level of privacy protection.
However, the possibility of someone eavesdropping on your
conversation cannot be ruled out as long as radio waves are used.
• Data stored on the handset may be corrupted or lost on the
following occasions.
The handset is used improperly.
The handset is exposed to static electricity or electric noise.
The handset is turned off during operation.
The battery pack is completely discharged.
The handset malfunctions or is sent for repairs.
Vodafone and Toshiba accept no liability whatsoever for the
corruption or loss of stored data. Be sure to keep a separate
memo of important data to limit damage caused by data
corruption or loss to a minimum.
• Be sure to charge the battery pack before using the handset for
the fi rst time or if the handset has not been used for a long time.
When the battery pack is stored for a long time, it discharges over
time even if it is not used.
• Before using a memory card, read the instruction manual of the
memory card thoroughly to ensure safe and proper operation.
• When the handset is used for extended periods of time, especially
in high temperature conditions, the handset surface could become
hot. Please use caution when touching the handset under such
conditions.
• When certain items are taken out of the country, documentation
may be required to certify that the export of the items is
not controlled, prohibited, or restricted by the Export Trade
Control Order and Foreign Exchange Order. Basically, no such
documentation is required if you take the handset out of the
country and bring it back for the purpose of personal use when
going on vacations or short business trips. In some cases,
however, an export permit may be required if the handset is to be
used by or transferred to anyone else.
Furthermore, a US government export permit may be required
when taking the handset to countries for which the US government
has imposed export restrictions (Cuba, Libya, North Korea, Iran,
Sudan, Syria).
