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).
