Osaifu-Keitai/ToruCa
The convenient i-mode function which uses the IC card
function of the i-mode phone (i-mode FeliCa), or the
i-mode phone with the IC card mounted is called
“Osaifu-Keitai”.
FeliCa is one of the non-contact IC technologies that
enables you to read and write data just by placing it
over a scanning device.
Just by placing Osaifu-Keitai over the scanning device
in a shop, you can pay by electronic cash or use it as a
air ticket or reward card. Mobile phones have become
one of easy-to-use tools.
Further, different from the existing FeliCa compatible
non-contact IC card, the new one enables you to
deposit electronic money by using the communication
into the IC card inside the Osaifu-Keitai or to check
your account for balance or usage details.
※
To use Osaifu-Keitai compatible service, you need to make
the settings from i-
α
ppli (IC application) program which
supports the IC card function [for details, inquire to IP
(Information Provider)].
※
For cautions on using each Osaifu-Keitai compatible
service, refer to “Mobile Phone User’s Guide [i-mode]”.
p
Data on the IC card might be lost or deformed owing to the
malfunction of Osaifu-Keitai. (When we keep your
Osaifu-Keitai for repair, we cannot keep it with data files left,
so the data files shall be deleted beforehand by yourself as a
rule.) Use the backup service of the IP (Information Provider)
for supports such as reissue, restoration, temporary storage
or transfer of data files, except for the data transfer by iC
transfer service. The availability of backup services and their
usage conditions (necessary applications, charges, etc.) and
the support availability of iC transfer service differ depending
on the service. Contact the IP (Information Provider)
beforehand. For your important data files, be sure to use the
service with backup support.
p
In any case including malfunction or model change, we
cannot be held responsible for the loss or deformation of
data on the IC card or other losses caused regarding
Osaifu-Keitai compatible services.
p
If your Osaifu-Keitai has been stolen or lost, inquire of the
provider for Osaifu-Keitai compatible service you use about
ways of dealing with the trouble, immediately. With this
FOMA phone, you can use Omakase Lock or IC Card Lock.
