Tip
Precautions
●
Extend the TV rod antenna (page 6-2) when using the Digital
TV.
●
The TV rod antenna is for receiving digital television signals.
You should leave it stowed in the handset whenever you are
not watching the Digital TV.
●
Digital TV supports reception in Japan only. Other countries use different
broadcast systems and frequencies, and so Digital TV reception is not
possible outside of Japan.
●
Never use the Digital TV while riding a bicycle or motorcycle, or while
driving a car. Doing so can make it difficult to hear sounds around you, or
the image or audio can distract you and create the risk of accident. Even
while walking, pay attention to the traffic around you when using the
Digital TV. Be especially careful in the vicinity of railway crossings and
pedestrian crosswalks.
●
Digital TV images and/or audio can be affected if mail is received while
you are using the Digital TV.
●
Note that SoftBank assumes no responsibility for any loss or corruption of
data stored or settings configured by you due to an accident, malfunction,
or repair of handset. Also note that Digital TV information (data recorded
from the Digital TV, TV links, etc.) saved on the handset cannot be
transferred to another handset when replacing the current handset,
including changing to another model and repair.
●
You will not be able to watch Digital TV broadcasts if your handset does
not have a USIM card installed or if your contract with SoftBank expires.
●
Channels allocated for the Channel settings (page 6-3) are based on
information available as of February 2007. Whenever there is a change in
the regional broadcasting channels, use
Scan
to update the Channel
setting.
