The FOMA 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/Wi-Fi/Bluetooth antenna
section (P.24). The first time you use the GPS
it may take up to 10 minutes before your
location is found.
･
Use the GPS system with great care.
DOCOMO 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
measurement (communication) results
because of external factors (including the
running out of the battery), such as a failure,
malfunction, or any other problems of the
FOMA terminal or the power failure.
･
You cannot use the FOMA 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 FOMA 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 the discretion of the
U.S. Department of Defense.
･
Some wireless communications products
(mobile phone, data detectors and some
others) block satellite signals and also
causes instability of signal reception.
･
Some map displays based on location
information (latitude/longitude information)
may be not accurate due to some countries'
or regions' regulations.
