Location services

Your current location can be positioned using
GPS, Wi-Fi, or mobile network. If you use GPS
technology it may take a little longer, but it
will find your exact position. If you use Wi-Fi
or mobile network, your position is found
shortly but accuracy may decrease. Use GPS,
Wi-Fi, and mobile network in combination to
quickly find your exact position.
GPS function
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/Wi-Fi/Bluetooth antenna
section (P.29). The first time you use the GPS,
it may take about 10 minutes before your
location is found.
Use the GPS system with great care. DOCOMO

any purely economic loss including those due

You cannot use the terminal as a high-
