Manual for SO-02L

About using the terminal

• The terminal supports LTE, W-CDMA, GSM/GPRS and Wireless LAN Systems.
• Terminal operates using radio frequencies; may not be usable in tunnels, underground, buildings, or areas with weak radio waves. Services may not be available on upper floors of high-rise apartments. Calls may disconnect unexpectedly.
• Calls are automatically scrambled by LTE, W-CDMA, GSM/GPRS system to prevent tapping.
• Voice is converted to digital signals; poor radio wave conditions may affect voice accuracy.
• Supports "User" or "Guest" modes. Some services may recognize them as the same user.
• Regularly back up data to prevent loss from malfunction, repair, or model change.
• User-installed applications or websites may affect terminal stability or transmit location/personal information. Verify suppliers and operating conditions.
• Terminal automatically communicates for synchronization, software updates, etc. Large data transmission incurs high packet communication charges; Packet Pack/flat-rate service recommended.
• Packet communication charges may apply even with Wi-Fi®.
• Low memory (microSD card or internal storage) may cause applications to not operate correctly. Delete saved data.
• Set screen lock password for security.
• If terminal is lost, change account passwords to invalidate authentication.
• For third-party services/applications, confirm terms and conditions. DOCOMO is not liable for malfunctions.
• Follow onscreen instructions for license agreements.
• Applications and services are subject to change.
• Supports only sp-mode, mopera U, and Business mopera Internet. Other providers not supported.
• Check NTT DOCOMO website for usage charges.
• Display may have some dots that are always or never lit, which are characteristics, not defects.
• DOCOMO is not liable for failures or malfunctions of commercially available optional equipment.

Handling precautions

Common precautions

• SO-02L is waterproof/dustproof; prevent liquids and dust from entering the terminal or optional devices. Adapter and docomo nano UIM card are not waterproof/dustproof.

Bluetooth® function precautions

• Supports security functions, but they may not be sufficient. Be aware of security risks.
• DOCOMO is not responsible for data leakage.
• Frequency band: 2.4FH4/XX8/DS4/0F4.
• Bluetooth cautions: Operating frequency band is used by various equipment; confirm "another station" is not nearby. If interference occurs, change frequency or turn off power. Contact General Inquiries for questions.
