216 Applications
There are two ways to find your location,
using Mobile networks with Wi-Fi (Wireless
network) or GPS. Wireless network
technology determines your position fast but
accuracy may vary. If you use GPS technology
it may take a little longer, but it will find your
exact position. You can enable both Wireless
network and GPS to benefit from both
technologies when trying to find your
position.
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 functions that require the GPS
receiver to find your location, make sure you
have a clear view of the sky. If the GPS
receiver does not find your location after a
few minutes, you should move to another
location. To help the search, stand still and do
not cover the GPS antenna, FOMA/Xi/Wi-Fi/
Bluetooth antenna (P.30). The first time you
use the GPS it may take up to 10 minutes
before your location is found.
･

is not liable for any damage caused by
abnormality of the system.

Note that DOCOMO shall have no liabilities for
any purely economic loss including those due
to missing a chance to check the

because of external factors (including the
running out of the battery), such as a failure,
malfunction, or any other problems of the
terminal or the power failure.
･
You cannot use the terminal as a navigation
device for an aircraft, vehicle, and person.
Note that DOCOMO shall have no liabilities
whatsoever even if you suffer damage or loss
while performing a navigation using the
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 to a
deviation of the location information.
･
The GPS signals cannot be easily received
near a vehicle's sun visor with metal parts.
･
GPS is operated by the U.S. Department of
Defense. The department controls the
accuracy of the system, and manages the
system. Therefore, GPS radio wave condition
may be controlled (degradation of accuracy,
suspension of radio wave transmission, etc.) at
