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 or
the TV image/sound 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 theaters 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.

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, North Korea, Iran, Sudan, Syria).
For details on export laws, regulations and procedures,
refer to the Web page of the Security Export Control
Policy Division of the Ministry of Economy, Trade and
Industry.
