Use only Sony Ericsson branded original chargers
intended for use with your mobile phone. Other
chargers may not be designed to the same safety
and performance standards.
to suspect that interference is taking place,
immediately turn off your mobile phone. Contact
your cardiologist for more information.
For other medical devices, please consult your
physician and the manufacturer of the device.
Battery
Driving
We recommend that you fully charge the battery
before you use your mobile phone for the first time.
A new battery or one that has not been used for a
long time could have reduced capacity the first few
times it is used. The battery should only be charged
in temperatures between +5°C (+41°F) and +45°C
(+113°F).
Please check if local laws and regulations restrict
the use of mobile phones while driving or require
drivers to use handsfree solutions. We recommend
that you use only Sony Ericsson handsfree solutions
intended for use with your product.
Please note that because of possible interference
to electronic equipment, some vehicle manufacturers
forbid the use of mobile phones in their vehicles
unless a handsfree kit with an external antenna has
been installed.
Always pay full attention to driving and pull off the
road and park before making or answering a call if
driving conditions so require.
Use only Sony Ericsson branded original batteries
intended for use with your mobile phone. Using
other batteries and chargers could be dangerous.
Talk and standby times depend on several different
conditions such as signal strength, operating
temperature, application usage patterns, features
selected and voice or data transmissions when the
mobile phone is being used.
Turn off your mobile phone before removing the
battery. Do not put the battery into your mouth.
Battery electrolytes may be toxic if swallowed.
Do not let the metal contacts on the battery touch
another metal object. Doing this could short-circuit
and damage the battery. Use the battery for the
intended purpose only.
GPS/Location based functions
Some products provide GPS/Location based
functions. Location determining functionality
is provided “AS IS” and “WITH ALL FAULTS”.
Sony Ericsson does not make any representation
or warranty as to the accuracy of such location
information.
Use of location-based information by the device
may not be uninterrupted or error free and may
additionally be dependent on network service
availability. Please note that functionality may be
reduced or prevented in certain environments such
as building interiors or areas adjacent to buildings.
Personal medical devices
Mobile phones may affect the operation of
pacemakers and other implanted equipment.
Please avoid placing the mobile phone over the
pacemaker, e.g. in your breast pocket. When using
the mobile phone, use it at the ear on the opposite
side of the body to 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
Caution: Do not use GPS functionality in a manner
which causes distraction from driving.

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.
Emergency calls
Mobile phones operate using radio signals, which
cannot guarantee connection in all conditions. You
should therefore never rely solely upon any mobile
phone for essential communications (e.g. medical
emergencies).
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 mobile phone while it is
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.
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 phones, all Sony Ericsson mobile
phone models are designed to meet radio frequency
exposure guidelines.
Emergency calls may not be possible in all areas,
on all cellular networks, or when certain network
services and/or mobile phone features are in use.
Check with your local service provider.
Antenna
This phone contains a built-in antenna. Use of
antenna devices not marketed by Sony Ericsson
specifically for this model could damage your
mobile phone, reduce performance, and produce
SAR levels above the established limits (see below).
For phones sold in the US, before a phone model is
available for sale to the public, it must be tested and
certified by the Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) that it does not exceed the limit established
by the government-adopted requirement for safe
exposure. The tests are performed in positions and
locations (that is, at the ear and worn on the body)
as required by the FCC for each model. For body-
worn operation, this phone has been tested and
meets FCC RF exposure guidelines when the handset
is positioned a minimum of 15 mm from the body
without any metal parts in the vicinity of the phone
or when used with the original Sony Ericsson
accessory intended for this phone and worn on
the body. Use of other accessories may not ensure
compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines.
A separate leaflet with SAR information about this
mobile phone model is included with the material
accompanying this mobile phone. This information
can also be found, together with more information
on radio frequency exposure and SAR, on:
Efficient use
Hold your mobile phone as you would any other
phone. Do not cover the top of the phone when it is
in use, as this affects call quality and may cause the
phone to operate at a higher power level than needed,
thus shortening talk and standby times.
Radio frequency (RF) exposure and
Specific Absorption Rate (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).
Governments around the world have adopted
comprehensive international safety guidelines,
developed by scientific organizations, e.g. ICNIRP
(International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation
Protection) and IEEE (The Institute of Electrical and
Electronics Engineers Inc.), through periodic and
thorough evaluation of scientific studies. These
guidelines establish permitted levels of radio wave
exposure for the general population. The levels
