Common Precautions
●
Do not expose to water.
 The FOMA terminal, battery pack, adapter
(including the charger), and UIM are not
waterproof. Do not use them in a humid place
such as bathroom or in the rain. If you carry the
FOMA terminal on your body, perspiration may
corrode the internal parts of the FOMA terminal
and cause malfunction. Note that if a trouble is
diagnosed as exposure to water or other liquid,
repairs of the FOMA terminal may not be covered
by the Warranty or it may not be possible to
repair such phones. In that case, even if the
FOMA terminal can be repaired, it is repaired at
the owner’s expense.
● Clean the FOMA terminal with a dry soft
cloth (such as used for cleaning eyeglasses).

The color liquid crystal display of the FOMA
terminal has a special coating on it for better
visibility. Do not use unnecessary force to wipe the
display when you are cleaning it with a dry cloth.
The display and its coating may be damaged.
Handle the display with care and use a dry soft
cloth (such as used for cleaning eyeglasses)
to clean it. If the display is left with water drops
or stains, stains may become permanent or the
display coating may be peeled off.

Do not use alcohol, thinner, benzene, cleaning
detergent, etc. to clean the FOMA terminal.
These chemicals may erase the printing on the
FOMA terminal or cause discoloration.
● Clean the terminals occasionally with a dry
cotton swab.

Soiled terminals may cause poor connection and
loss of power. If the terminals are dirty, use a dry
cloth or cotton swab to wipe them clean.
●
Do not leave the FOMA terminal near the air
conditioning vent.
 Extreme temperature changes may produce
condensation and corrode the internal parts of
the FOMA terminal, causing it to malfunction.
● Make sure to use the FOMA terminal or
battery pack without excessive force.
 If you put the FOMA terminal in a bag full of items
or sit down with the FOMA terminal in the pocket
of your clothe, it may damage the display, and
internal circuit board, and the battery pack and
cause the FOMA terminal to malfunction.
Also, while the external device is connected to
the External connection terminal or Earphone/
Microphone jack, it may damage the connector
and cause malfunction.
● Make sure to see the user’s manuals
supplied with the FOMA terminal, adapter
(including the charger), and desktop holder.
● Do not rob or scratch the display with metal.
 The display may get scratched and it may cause
malfunction or damage.
