■ Precautions common to the main unit, internal battery, charging equipment, au Micro IC
Card (LTE), peripheral devices
● Do not apply excessive force to the product during use. Be sure not to put the product into a tightly packed bag or place
a heavy object on the product in a bag. Sitting on the product in your pocket might damage the display or internal circuit
board resulting in a malfunction.
Keeping an external device connected to the external connection might damage the connector resulting in a malfunction.
Such damage and malfunction are not covered by the warranty, even if there is no external damage.
● Do not use the product in extremely hot, cold or humid places. (Use within an ambient temperature range of 5
and humidity range of 35% to 85%.)
● Do not use in places subject to lots of dust or vibration.
● Clean the connection terminals with dry cotton swabs, etc. every now and then. Soiled terminals might cause poor
connection. Do not exert a strong force to clean the connection terminals to prevent deformation.
● Clean the product with a dry soft cloth (such as the type used for eyeglasses). Forceful rubbing with a dry cloth may
scratch the display. Drops of water or dirt left on the display may cause stains. Wiping the product using alcohol, thinner,
benzine, detergent, etc. might erase the printing on the outer casing or cause discoloration.
● Use as far away as possible from land-line phones, TVs and radios. Use nearby might affect them.
● The product may become warm while charging or communicating, depending on the situation, but this is not abnormal.
Note that there are times when it comes to use the product in a bag or bag heat up, the temperature of the product is
