Using the GPS function
·
Note that DOCOMO is not liable for any damages that may occur as a
result of irregularities in the GPS system.
·
Note that DOCOMO is not liable for pure economic loss if you cannot confirm the
positioning (communication) result with the terminal because of failure, malfunction
or external factors such as power failure (including battery exhaustion).
·
You cannot use the terminal as a navigation system for aircraft, vehicles,
persons, etc. For this reason, note that DOCOMO is not liable for losses
incurred by navigation performed by using 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.
·
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.
·
Wireless communications products (mobile telephones, data detectors, etc.) might
interfere with satellite signals and cause signal reception to become unstable.
·
The displayed map based on the acquired location information (latitude
and longitude information) may be inaccurate because of the legal system
in each country and area.
■ Where radio waves are difficult to receive
Note that since GPS is using radio waves for satellites, under the
following conditions, radio waves might not be able to be received or
might be difficult to receive.
·
Inside or immediately under a building
·
Inside a basement or tunnel, and below the ground or water
·
Inside a bag or box
·
In buildings-clustered or residential area
·
Inside or under a thick covering of trees

Near a high-voltage cable
·
In a car, inside a train compartment
·
Bad weather such as heavy rain or snow
·
When there are obstructions (people or objects) near the terminal
