have been caused by use of non-original accessories.

Guidelines for Safe and

Efficient Use

Your mobile phone is a highly sophisticated electronic

device. To get the most out of your mobile phone, please

read this text about product care, and safe and efficient use.

Treat your product with care, keep it in a clean and dust-

free place.

Product Care and Maintenance

Do not expose your product to liquid or moisture or to

humidity.

Antenna Care

Your mobile phone is equipped with either an internal or

external antenna.

Do not expose your product to extreme high or low

temperatures.

Do not expose your product to lit candles, cigarettes, or

cigars, or to open flames, etc.

To avoid impaired performance, please ensure that your

mobile phone’s antenna is not damaged.

Do not drop, throw or try to bend your product as rough

treatment could damage it.

Do not remove the antenna yourself.

Only use an antenna that has been specifically designed by

Sony Ericsson for your mobile phone. Use of unauthorized

or modified antennas could damage your mobile phone and

may violate the appropriate regulations, causing loss of

Do not paint your product as the paint could obstruct the

earpiece, microphone or any moveable parts and prevent

normal use.

Do not attempt to disassemble your product. Your product performance and SAR levels above the recommended limits

does not contain consumer serviceable components. Only

(see below).

Sony Ericsson authorized personnel should perform service.

Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use

Efficient Use

For optimum performance with minimum power

consumption please:

Radio Frequency (RF) Exposure and SAR

Your mobile phone is a low-power radio transmitter and

receiver. When it is turned on, it emits low levels of radio

frequency energy (also known as radio waves or radio

frequency fields).

• If your mobile phone is equipped with a retractable

antenna, Sony Ericsson recommends that the antenna

should be kept fully retracted (closed) while the phone is

worn on the body to avoid the antenna touching, or

coming in close proximity to, the body.

Governments around the world have adopted

comprehensive international safety guidelines, developed

by scientific organizations*, e.g. ICNIRP (International

Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection),

through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific

studies. These guidelines establish permitted levels of

radio wave exposure for the general population. All Sony

Ericsson mobile phone models are designed to operate

within these stringent levels. The levels include a safety

margin designed to assure the safety of all persons,

regardless of age and health, and to account for any

variations in measurements.

• Hold your mobile phone as you would any other

telephone. While speaking directly into the mouthpiece,

angle the antenna in a direction up and over your

shoulder.

• Do not touch the antenna when the mobile phone is in

use. Touching the antenna affects call quality, may cause

the mobile phone to operate at a higher power level than

needed and may shorten talk and standby times.

• Do not use the mobile phone when the front and/or

back cover is removed from the unit.

Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) is the unit of measurement

for the amount of radio frequency energy absorbed by the

body when using a mobile phone. The SAR value is

determined at the highest certified power level in laboratory

conditions, but the actual SAR level of the phone while

operating can be well below this value.

• If your mobile phone is equipped with infrared, never

direct the infrared ray at anyone’s eye and make sure that

it does not disturb any other infrared units.

Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use

This is because the phone is designed to use the minimum

power required to reach the network. Therefore, the closer

you are to a base station, the more likely it is that the actual

SAR level will decrease.

• International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation

Protection (ICNIRP), “Guidelines for limiting exposure

to time-varying electric, magnetic, and electromagnetic

fields (up to 300 GHz)”, Health Physics, vol. 74,

pp 494-522, April 1998.

Variations in SAR below the radio frequency exposure

guidelines do not mean that there are variations in safety.

While there may be differences in SAR levels among mobile

phone models, all mobile phone models must be designed

to meet radio frequency exposure guidelines.

• 99/519/EC, “Council Recommendation of 12 July

1999 on the limitation of exposure of the general

public to electromagnetic fields (0 Hz to 300 GHz)”,

Official Journal of the European Communities,

1999.

Accessories can significantly affect SAR compliance. For

example, the Federal Communication Commission in the

U.S. requires that some manufacturers’ accessories shall be

tested, and Sony Ericsson has done so with respect to its

products. Sony Ericsson has not tested non-original

accessories in conjunction with Sony Ericsson mobile

phones. It is therefore recommended that only original

accessories are used in conjunction with Sony Ericsson

mobile phones.

exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic fields,

3 kHz to 300 GHz”, The Institute of Electrical and

Electronics Engineers Inc. (IEEE).

Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use

Driving

Vehicles Equipped with an Air Bag

Please check if local laws and/or regulations, in the

country/state where you are, restrict the use of mobile

phones while driving.

An air bag inflates with great force. Do not place objects,

including either installed or portable wireless equipment, in

the area over the air bag or in the air bag deployment area. If

in-vehicle wireless equipment is improperly installed and

the air bag inflates, serious injury could result.

Law in many countries/states requires drivers to use a

Hands Free solution. Sony Ericsson recommends that you

use only Sony Ericsson or Ericsson branded Hands Free

solutions intended for use with this product.

Electronic Devices

Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF

signals. However, certain electronic equipment may not be

shielded against the RF signals from your mobile phone,

therefore:

Sony Ericsson is concerned about your safety. Always give

full attention to driving and pull off the road and park

before making or answering a call if driving conditions so

require.

Pacemakers

RF energy may affect some electronic systems in motor

vehicles such as car stereo, safety equipment etc. In

addition, some vehicle manufacturers do not allow use of

mobile phones in their vehicles, unless a Hands Free kit

with an external antenna supports the installation. Check

with your vehicle manufacturer’s representative to be sure

that your mobile phone will not affect the electronic

systems in your vehicle.

The Health Industry Manufacturers Association

recommends that a minimum separation of six (6”) inches

(15 cm) be maintained between a handheld wireless phone

and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the

pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with the

independent research by and recommendations of Wireless

Technology Research.

Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use

Persons with pacemakers:

Turn your phone OFF in any facility where posted notices

so require.

• Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than six inches

from their pacemaker when the phone is turned ON;

• Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket;

• Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to

minimize the potential for interference.

Aircraft

• Turn off your mobile phone before boarding any

aircraft.

• To prevent interference with communication systems,

you must not use your mobile phone while the plane

is in the air.

• If you have any reason to suspect that interference is

taking place, turn your phone OFF immediately.

• Do not use it on the ground without permission from

the crew.

Hearing Aids

Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some

hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may

want to consult your service provider or call your local

Sony Ericsson Contact Center to discuss alternatives.

Blasting Areas

Turn off your mobile phone when in a blasting area or in

areas posted “turn off two-way radio” to avoid interfering

with blasting operations. Construction crews often use

remote control RF devices to set off explosives.

Other Medical Devices

If you use any other personal medical device, consult the

manufacturer of your device to determine if they are

adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your

physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this

information.

Explosive Atmosphere

Turn off your mobile phone when in any area with a

potentially explosive atmosphere. It is rare, but your mobile

phone or its accessories could generate sparks. Sparks in

such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in

bodily injury or even death.

Turn your phone OFF in health care facilities when any

regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do so.

Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment

that could be sensitive to external RF energy.

Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use

Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but DANGER - Never alter the AC cord or plug. If the plug

not always, clearly marked. They include fuelling areas,

below deck on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage

facilities, and areas where the air contains chemicals or

particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders.

will not fit into the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by

a qualified electrician. Improper connection can result in

risk of electric chock.

Children

Do not transport or store flammable gas, liquid, or

explosives in the same compartment of your vehicle that

contains your mobile phone and accessories.

DO NOT ALLOW CHILDREN TO PLAY WITH

YOUR MOBILE PHONE OR ITS ACCESSORIES.

THEY COULD HURT THEMSELVES OR OTHERS,

OR COULD ACCIDENTALLY DAMAGE THE

MOBILE PHONE OR ACCESSORY. YOUR MOBILE

PHONE OR ITS ACCESSORY MAY CONTAIN

SMALL PARTS THAT COULD BE DETACHED AND

CREATE A CHOKING HAZARD.

Power Supply

Connect the AC power adapter only to designated power

sources as marked on the product.

To reduce risk of damage to the electric cord, remove it

from the outlet by holding onto the AC adapter rather than

the cord.

Disposing of the Product

Your mobile phone should never be placed in municipal

waste. Please check local regulations for disposal of

electronic products.

Make sure the cord is positioned so that it will not be

stepped on, tripped over or otherwise subjected to damage

or stress.

To reduce risk of electric shock, unplug the unit from any

power source before attempting to clean it.

The AC power adapter must not be used outdoors or in

damp areas.

Emergency Calls

Battery Information

IMPORTANT!

Charging the Battery

This mobile phone, like any mobile phone, operates using

radio signals, cellular and landline networks as well as user-

programmed functions, which cannot guarantee connection

under all conditions. Therefore you should never rely solely

upon any mobile phone for essential communications (e.g.

medical emergencies).

The battery delivered with your mobile phone is not fully

charged. We recommend that you charge the battery for

12 hours before you use your mobile phone for the first

time. If you are charging a new battery, or a battery that has

run out completely, it may take a while (up to 30 minutes)

before you get any indication (the battery meter appears in

the display) that the battery is being charged.

Remember, in order to make or receive calls, the mobile

phone must be switched on and in a service area with

adequate cellular signal strength. Emergency calls may not

be possible on all cellular phone networks or when certain

network services and/or mobile phone features are in use.

command. Say the Magic Word and then one of your

recorded voice commands. The Magic Word is especially

sources of speech, like your car radio. If this

happens, you record a different Magic Word.

Tips when recording

If your phone cannot detect speech, one of the following

might have happened:

• You spoke too softly – try speaking more loudly.

Voice Control

• You held the phone too far away – hold it as you do

during a call.

Voicemail

If your subscription includes an answering service,

callers can leave a voicemail message when you

cannot answer a call.

• The voice command was too short – it should be around

one second long and more than one syllable.

• You spoke too late or too soon – speak immediately after

the tone.

Receiving a voicemail message

• You did not record the voice command when the

handsfree was attached – for voice control with a

handsfree kit, record when the handsfree is attached.

Depending on your service provider, you are informed that

someone has left you a voicemail message by a text message

(SMS) or by a voicemail indication.

• You used another intonation – speak in the same tone as

you did when you recorded the voice command.

Calling your voicemail service

In order to browse via WAP or use the email program in

your phone, you must enter settings for a data account in

your phone. The settings specify all the information your

phone needs to communicate with a certain server on the

Internet, for example, the address of that server. You can

have several data accounts saved in your phone, with
