ɡ Estimated charge times and LED display
The following figures are estimated times for charging an empty
battery pack with the FOMA terminal turned off.
Charging LED illuminates in red while charging, and it turns off
when charging is completed.
Check that the battery pack has been properly inserted when
charging LED flashes red. The LED also flashes red when the
battery pack has reached the end of its service life.
The battery pack can also be charged with the FOMA terminal
turned on ({ on the display flashes during charging).
When charging is completed, charging LED turns off, and { on
the display changes to ".
When the battery becomes warm, charging may automatically stop
even if the battery has not been fully charged. Charging resumes
after the temperature lowers to an appropriate temperature. While
charging is stopped, charging LED turns off ({ on the display
flashes while stopped).
ɡ Estimated times of use when fully charged
Continuous talk time is estimated as the usage time at normal transmission
signal strength, and continuous stand-by time is estimated as the usage
time while moving with the FOMA terminal folded at normal signal strength.
Talk/stand-by time may be reduced by about half depending on conditions
including battery level status, stand-by display, Power saver mode, Missed
call notice and New unread mail notice settings, temperature and other
environmental conditions, and signal strength (no signal or weak signal).
Using i-mode reduces talk (transmission)/stand-by time. When i-Channel is
subscribed, information is automatically received and updated, so talk
(transmission)/stand-by time will be reduced. In addition, when shooting or
editing an image, watching 1Seg, composing i-mode mail, activating the
downloaded i-
a
ppli or the i-
a
ppli stand-by, or using MUSIC Player, i-motion
player, Bluetooth function or data communication, the talk (transmission)/
stand-by time will be reduced even if calls or i-mode transmission are not
made. Some i-
a
ppli software may continue transmission even after
downloading. To avoid this, set not to connect in advance.
The actual usage time is a combination of stand-by time and talk time,
and the longer the talk time, the shorter the stand-by time becomes.
1Seg watching time may be shortened depending on conditions
including battery level status, functions used, temperature, other
environmental conditions and signal strength (no signal or weak signal).
ɡ Battery pack service life
Battery pack is a consumable product. Service time per charge is
gradually reduced every time the battery is charged.
When service time per charge is reduced to about half of the default time,
this means that the battery pack is approaching the end of its service life.
In such a case, it is recommended to replace the battery pack as soon as
possible. Depending on usage, the battery pack may swell as it
approaches the end of its service life but this will not cause problems.
If i-
a
ppli, Videophone, or 1Seg is used while charging for a long time,
the service life of the battery pack may become shorter than estimated.
To protect the environment, return used batteries to
NTT DOCOMO, any DOCOMO retailer, or a recycling
agency.
