As for this service, the Company shall not be liable for any damage 
incurred on the users resulted from failure or delay of information delivery 
due to communication disturbance or system failure, contents of the 
information or other problems that are not supposed to be blamed on the 
Company.

)

Earthquake Early Warning

 

Earthquake Early Warning notifies areas where a strong shaking (Japan 
seismic scale 4 or more) is expected when an earthquake whose 
maximum Japan seismic scale is predicted of 5-lower or more has been 
detected.

 

This service detects an earthquake (P-wave, preliminary tremors) near 
the seismic center immediately after the earthquake occurs and 
automatically calculates its location, scale and predicted strength of the 
shaking. After that, you will be notified of the earthquake as soon as 
possible within a few seconds to dozens of seconds before a strong 
shaking from the earthquake (S-wave, principal shock) occurs.

 

In the vicinity of the seismic center, a strong shaking may reach you 
before Earthquake Early Warning.

 

The Earthquake Early Warning distribution system provided by this 
service is different from that provided by TV, radio and other 
communication media and thus the arriving time of Earthquake Early 
Warning may be different among those media.

Tsunami Warning

 

Tsunami Warning notifies areas including target sea coasts of Major 
Tsunami Warning and Tsunami Warning provided by the Japan 
Meteorological Agency.

Disaster and Evacuation Information

 

Disaster and Evacuation Information notifies information related to the 
safety of citizens, such as evacuation advisories, evacuation orders or 
various alarms delivered by the national government or the local 
governments.

 

Using Disaster Voice Messaging Service

Disaster Voice Messaging Service is a service to record voices with a 
smartphone, tablet, etc. and deliver them as a voice message to people to 
whom you want to deliver the information that you are safe when large-scale 
disasters occur.

  From the au Disaster Countermeasure menu, [

災害用音声お

Follow the on-screen instructions.

 

To use this service via Wi-Fi

®

, making initial settings via LTE/3G networks

Voice messages can be recorded for up to 30 seconds.

 

Voice messages can be exchanged among au terminals as well as other 
carriers’ cell phones and PHS devices.

 

Voices may not be heard when the media sound volume is set to low.

 

When no free space is left on the internal memory, voice messages may 
not be saved or played.

 

Some cell phones cannot receive voice messages. For details, refer to

Charging

 Charging

When you purchase the product, the internal battery is not fully charged. Be 
sure to charge the internal battery before use.

 

If the performance of the battery does not recover (e.g. the usable time after 
each charge has become extremely short), the internal battery may be at the 
end of service life. On the home screen, tap [APPS] 

 [Settings] 

 [Device 

info] 

 [Status] 

 [Battery status] to check the charging performance of the 

internal battery.

 

While charging, the charging/notification indicator illuminates in red, and the 
battery icon is displayed with 

 superimposed. When the battery is 

charged to approximately 95%, the charging/notification indicator illuminates 
in green. When charging is finished, the charging/notification indicator goes 
out.

 

Depending on the operation procedure and usage environment, the 
temperature inside the product may get high and the product may even 
get heated. In such case, charging may stop for security reasons.

 

Charging the internal battery while using the camera function etc. may 
lengthen the charging time.

 

If you perform various operations with a specified charger (sold 
separately) connected to the product, charging/discharging may take 
place repeatedly in a short time. Frequently charging the internal battery 
shortens its service life.

 

If you charge the internal battery when the battery has run out, the 
charging/notification indicator may not illuminate soon. However, 
charging is in progress.

 

If the charging/notification indicator flashes in red, force the power off 
(

P. 13) and turn the product on again. If the indicator continues to flash, 

stop charging the internal battery and contact an au shop or the Keitai 
Guarantee Service Center.

 

If you stop charging while the charging/notification indicator still 
illuminates during charging, the cell phone may be left not fully charged 
even if 

 is displayed on it. In such case, the usage times shorten.

 

Charging Other Models

You can connect this product and a commercially available USB host cable or 
USB communication cable to charge a supported AQUOS PHONE or similar 
device.

 

Conversion cable with USB host function capability and USB-microUSB 
communication cable are sold separately.

 

For supported models and recommended cables, refer to the following 
manufacturer’s site for product information.
