Getting the best out of your battery pack
Use the specified Battery Pack N14 for the FOMA terminal.
■ Battery pack life
・ Battery packs have a limited service life. The amount of usable time decreases every time the battery pack is
recharged.
・ When a fully charged battery pack only lasts half as long as it did at the time of purchase, the battery pack life is
almost over, so it is recommended to replace it with a new one. When the life of the battery pack is near end, the
battery pack may expand a little according to the usage condition, but this is not a malfunction.
・ The service life of a battery pack is about one year. However, the service life of a battery pack may be shortened
when charging/discharging is repeated in a short period of time, when the battery pack is charged under
high-temperature environment, or when the battery pack is charged for a long period of time.

Battery pack charging
・ For details, refer to the manuals for the FOMA AC Adapter 01 (optional) and FOMA DC Adapter 01 (optional).
・
When charging the battery pack, the battery pack must be attached to the FOMA terminal.
・ You can receive calls during charging if the FOMA terminal is turned on. However, the battery level will fall during
the call and the time required for charging will increase.
・ When plugging in or out the connector, do it slowly and securely not to apply an excessive force.
・
When you make a call or perform packet communication in a high-temperature environment, the FOMA terminal’s
temperature may rise and the charging may be stopped. If this occurs, stop a running function and wait for the
temperature or the FOMA terminal to fall before you retry charging.
■
Do not charge the battery pack for a long period of time (several days) with the FOMA terminal turned on
・ If you charge the battery pack for a long period of time with the FOMA terminal turned on, power to the FOMA
terminal will be supplied from the battery pack once charging ends. As a result, you will only be able to use the
FOMA terminal for a short time and the low-voltage alarm may sound immediately. In this case, recharge the
battery pack correctly. Disconnect the FOMA terminal from the AC adapter (or desktop holder) or DC adapter,
then set it again for recharging.
■
Battery usage time (The battery duration varies depending on the charging time and the deterioration of the
battery pack.)
・ The continuous talk time is an estimated time you can talk while radio waves are strong enough to send and
receive.
・ The continuous standby time is an estimated time when radio waves are strong enough to receive properly with
the FOMA terminal folded. Note that the actual continuous talk/standby time may decrease by as much as half
depending on the following conditions: the battery pack changing level, the function settings, ambient
environment such as temperature, the status of radio waves (out of service area or weak radio waves). Using
i-mode will decrease the talk (communication) and standby times. Even when you do not talk on the phone or
use i-mode, creating i-mode mail or starting up downloaded i-
α
ppli, i-
α
ppli standby screen, playback music will
also decrease the talk (communication) and standby times.
・
The continuous standby time in stationary is the average usage time when the FOMA terminal is folded and
standing still while radio waves can be normally received.
・ The continuous standby time in moving is the average usage time when the FOMA terminal is folded under condition of
“stationary”, “moving”, and “out of service area” within the area where radio waves can be normally received.
・
Inserting the microSD memory card, using data communication or multi access, or using the camera will also
decrease the talk (communication) and standby times.

Note that using excessive force could damage the charging terminals connected to the battery pack of the FOMA terminal.

Do not use excessive force when the tip of the back cover is inserted into the FOMA terminal. The finger tab of the back cover may be
broken.
z
Do not peel off the seal pasted at the back of the rear cover.

To protect the environment, take used battery packs to NTT DoCoMo, the agency, the recycle
shop, etc.
