GPS
Handset has a GPS receiver that uses satellite signals to calculate your location. Some GPS features
use the Internet.
When GPS function is used to find your location, make sure there is 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 GPS Antenna Area. When using GPS for the first time, it may take about
10 minutes to find your location.
Use the GPS system with great care. SoftBank Corp. is not liable for any damages caused by
abnormality of the system.
Note that SoftBank Corp. is not liable for any damages including those due to missing a chance to
check the positioning (communication) results because of external factors (including the running out
of Battery), such as a failure, malfunction, or any other problems of handset or the power failure.
Handset cannot be used as a navigation device for an aircraft, vehicle, or person. Note that
SoftBank Corp. is not liable whatsoever even if you suffer damages or loss while performing a
navigation using the location information.
Handset cannot be used as a high-accuracy measurement GPS. Note that SoftBank Corp. is not
liable whatsoever even if you suffer damages or loss due to a deviation in the location information.
Global Positioning System (GPS) is created and managed by the U.S. Department of Defense. The
Department is in charge of controlling the accuracy and maintenance of the system. Therefore, any
changes made by the U.S. Department of Defense might affect the accuracy or functions of the
GPS system.
Handset blocks satellite signals and also causes instability of signal reception.
Some maps based on location information (latitude/longitude information) may not be accurate due
to countries' or regions' regulations.
Note that radio signals may not be received or it may be difficult to receive radio signals in such
conditions such as inside a building or car or near a high-voltage cable, since GPS uses radio
signals from a satellite.
SoftBank Corp. is not liable for navigation services or for the accuracy of location services.
