Important Information
OR ACCESSORY. YOUR MOBILE PHONE OR ITS
ACCESSORY MAY CONTAIN SMALL PARTS THAT
COULD BE DETACHED AND CREATE A CHOKING
HAZARD.
Use only Sony Ericsson branded original batteries
intended for use with your mobile phone. Using other
batteries and chargers could be dangerous.
The 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
using the mobile phone.
Power supply (Charger)
Connect the AC power adapter only to designated
power sources as marked on the product. Make sure
the cord is positioned so that it will not be 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. Never alter
the cord or plug. If the plug will not fit into the outlet,
have a proper outlet installed by a qualified
electrician.
Turn off your mobile phone before removing the
battery. Do not allow the battery to be put into the
mouth. Battery electrolytes may be toxic if swallowed.
Do not let the metal contacts on the battery touch
another metal object. This could short-circuit and
damage the battery. Use the battery for the intended
purpose only.
Personal medical devices
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.
Mobile phones may affect the operation of cardiac
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, 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.
Battery
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 can only be charged
in temperatures between +5°C (+41°F) and +45°C
(+113°F).
For other medical devices, please consult your
physician and the manufacturer of the device.

Important Information
Driving
Antenna
Please verify whether 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.
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).
Efficient use
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
supports the installation.
Hold your mobile phone as you would any other
phone. Do not cover the top of the phone when
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.
Always give full attention to driving and pull off the
road and park before making or answering a call
if driving conditions so require.
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).
Emergency calls
Mobile phones operate using radio signals, which
cannot guarantee connection under all conditions.
Therefore you should never rely solely upon any
mobile phone for essential communications
(e.g. medical emergencies).
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
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.

phone or when used with the original Sony Ericsson
body worn accessory intended for this phone.
Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance
with FCC RF exposure guidelines.
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 operating
can be well below this value.
A separate leaflet with SAR information for this
mobile phone model is included with the material
that comes with this mobile phone. This information
can also be found, together with more information
on radio frequency exposure and SAR,
This is because the mobile phone is designed to use
the minimum power required to reach the network.
Accessible Solutions/Special Needs
For phones sold in the U.S., you can use your TTY
terminal with your Sony Ericsson mobile phone
(with the necessary accessory). For information
on Accessible Solutions for individuals with special
needs call the Sony Ericsson Special Needs Center
at 877 878 1996 (TTY) or 877 207 2056 (voice),
or visit the Sony Ericsson Special Needs Center
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.
For phones sold in the U.S., before a phone model is
available for sale to the public, it must be tested and
certified to the 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
