About this user’s guide
For ease of reference, the “Getting to know your phone”
chapter gives a quick overview of the main functions of
the phone, shortcuts and general information.
Note: Always turn off the phone and detach the
charger before you insert or remove a SIM card.
Available services
Some services and functions described in this user’s
guide are network- or subscription-dependent. Because

more information about your subscription.
The SIM card

card. The SIM card contains a computer chip that
keeps track of your phone number, the services
included in your subscription, and your phone book
information, among other things.

Entering letters
Multitap text input
You can enter letters, for example, when you add
names to the phone book, write text messages or enter
WAP addresses.
Apart from the way you normally enter letters in
your phone, using multitap text input, you can use
T9™ Text Input for entering text messages and
e-mail, for example, if the input language you select
supports this. T9 Text Input is a predictive input
method and is a quicker way to write texts. See
“T9™ Text Input” on page 13.
When saving names in the phone book or when writing
WAP addresses, you enter letters using multitap text
input. You press each key as many times as needed to
show the letter you want. In the following example, we
are going to write a name in the Phone book.
To enter letters using multitap text input
1. Scroll to Phone book, YES, Add contact, YES. Press
YES again.
2. Press the appropriate key,

with each other so that they can connect when they are
within range of each other. Your phone can be paired
with up to 10 Bluetooth devices. After pairing, the
operation mode of your phone is automatically set to

Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use
Please read this information before using your
mobile phone.
ANTENNA CARE
Your mobile phone is equipped with an internal antenna.
To avoid impaired performance, please ensure that your
mobile phone’s antenna is not damaged.
•
•
•
Do not remove the antenna yourself.
PRODUCT CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Do not expose your product to liquid or moisture or
to humidity.
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.
Do not drop, throw or try to bend your product as rough
treatment could damage it.
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 does not contain consumer serviceable
components. Only Sony Ericsson authorized personnel
should perform service.
Do not use any accessories other than Ericsson or Sony
Ericsson branded originals intended for use with your
product (herinafter referred to as “original accessories”).
Use of non-original accessories may result in loss of
performance, damage to the product, fire, electric shock or
injury. The warranty does not cover product failures which
have been caused by use of non-original accessories.
Treat your product with care, keep it in a clean and
dust-free place.
•
•
•
•
•
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 performance and SAR levels above the
recommended limits (see below).
EFFICIENT USE
For optimum performance with minimum power
consumption please:
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.
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.

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).
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
mobile phone while operating can be well below this value.
This is because the mobile 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.
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.
A separate leaflet with SAR information for this mobile
phone model is included with the material that comes
with this mobile phone. This information is also available

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.
Accessories can significantly affect a mobile phone's
compliance with the radio frequency exposure guidelines.
To avoid causing loss of performance or radio frequency
exposure levels above the permissible limits, it is
recommended that you only use Sony Ericsson or
Ericsson original accessories intended for use with the
mobile phone. If you wear the mobile phone on your body
while it is transmitting, and you do not use a Sony
Ericsson or Ericsson original body-worn accessory, please
ensure that the mobile phone is positioned a minimum of

Mobile phones may affect the operation of some
implanted cardiac pacemakers and other medically
implanted equipment. Pacemaker patients should be
aware that the use of a mobile phone very close to a
pacemaker might cause the device to malfunction. Avoid
placing the mobile phone over the pacemaker, e.g., in
your breast pocket. When using the mobile phone, place
it at the ear opposite the pacemaker. If a minimum
distance of 15 cm (6’’ inches) is kept between the mobile
phone and the pacemaker, the risk of interference is
limited. If you have any reason to suspect that
interference is taking place, immediately turn off your
mobile phone. Contact your cardiologist for more
information.
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.
EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES
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.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are
often, but 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.
If you use any other personal medical device, consult
the manufacturer of your device to determine if it is
adequately shielded from external RF energy.
Turn your mobile phone off in any facility where posted
notices so require.
Do not transport or store flammable gas, liquid, or
explosives in the same compartment of your vehicle that
contains your mobile phone and accessories.
AIRCRAFT
