･
Note that DOCOMO is not liable for pure economic loss if
you cannot confirm the positioning (communication) result
with the terminal because of failure, malfunction or external
factors such as power failure (including battery exhaustion).
･
You cannot use the terminal as a navigation system for
aircraft, vehicles, persons, etc. For this reason, note that
DOCOMO is not liable for losses incurred by navigation
performed by using location information.
･
You cannot use the terminal as a high-accuracy
measurement GPS. Note that DOCOMO shall have no
liabilities whatsoever even if you suffer damage or loss due

･
GPS is a service operated by the USA Department of
Defense, so the GPS radio wave condition may be controlled
(accuracy degraded, radio wave suspended, etc.) for
reasons of US national security.
･
Wireless communications products (mobile telephones,
data detectors, etc.) might interfere with satellite signals and
cause signal reception to become unstable.
･
The displayed map based on the acquired location
information (latitude and longitude information) may be
inaccurate because of the legal system in each country and
area.
■
Where radio waves are difficult to receive
Note that since GPS is using radio waves for satellites, under
the following conditions, radio waves might not be able to be
received or might be difficult to receive. Also, do not cover the
GPS antenna (on the top left of the terminal) with your hand.
