Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use
Please read this information before using your phone.
These instructions are intended for your safety. Please
follow these guidelines. If the product has been
subject to any of the conditions listed below or you
have any doubt as to its proper function make sure
you have the product checked by a certified service
partner before charging or using it. Failure to do so might entail a
risk of product malfunction or even a potential hazard to your
health.
Recommendations for safe use of product ( phone,
battery, charger and other accessories)
• Always treat your product with care and keep it in a clean and
dust-free place.
• Warning! May explode if disposed of in fire.
• Do not expose your product to liquid or moisture or humidity.
• Do not expose your product to extremely high or
low temperatures. Do not expose the battery to
temperatures above +140°F (+60°C).
• Do not expose your product to open flames or lit
tobacco products.
• Do not drop, throw or try to bend your product.
• Do not paint your product.
• Do not attempt to disassemble or modify your
product. Only Sony Ericsson authorized personnel
should perform service.
• Do not close your product with an object inserted
between keypad and display; this may damage
your product.
• Do not use your product near medical equipment without
requesting permission from your treating physician or authorized
medical staff.
• Do not use your product when in, or around aircraft, or areas
showing the sign "turn off two-way radio".
67
• Do not use your product in an area where a
potentially explosive atmosphere exists.
• Do not place your product or install wireless
equipment in the area above an air bag in your car.
CHILDREN
KEEP OUT OF CHILDRENS REACH. DO NOT ALLOW
CHILDREN TO PLAY WITH YOUR PHONE OR ITS
ACCESSORIES. THEY COULD HURT THEMSELVES
OR OTHERS, OR COULD ACCIDENTALLY DAMAGE
THE PHONE OR ACCESSORY. YOUR PHONE OR ITS
ACCESSORY MAY CONTAIN SMALL PARTS THAT COULD
BECOME DETACHED AND CREATE A CHOKING HAZARD.
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
does not fit into the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a
qualified electrician.
Use only Sony Ericsson branded original chargers intended for use
with your phone. Other chargers may not be designed to the same
safety and performance standards.
Battery
We recommend that you fully charge the battery before you use
your 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).
Use only Sony Ericsson branded original batteries intended for use
with your phone. Using other batteries and chargers could be
dangerous.
68
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 phone is being used.
Turn off your 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.
Personal medical devices
Phones may affect the operation of pacemakers and other
implanted equipment. Please avoid placing the phone over the
pacemaker, for example, in your breast pocket. When using the
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 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 phone. Contact your cardiologist
for more information.
For other medical devices, please consult your physician and the
manufacturer of the device.
Driving
Please check if local laws and regulations restrict the use of 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 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.
69
Emergency calls
Phones operate using radio signals, which cannot guarantee
connection in all conditions. You should therefore never rely solely
upon any phone for essential communications (for example, medical
emergencies).
Emergency calls may not be possible in all areas, on all cellular
networks, or when certain network services and/or 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 phone, reduce performance, and produce SAR levels
above the established limits (see below).
Efficient use
Hold your 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 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, for example, 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 include a safety margin designed to assure the safety of
70
all persons, regardless of age and health, and to account for any
variations in measurements.
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) is the unit of measurement for the
amount of radio frequency energy absorbed by the body when
using a phone. The SAR value is determined at the highest certified
power level in laboratory conditions, but the actual SAR level of the
phone while it is operating can be well below this value. This is
because the 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 phones, all Sony Ericsson phone
models are designed to meet radio frequency exposure guidelines.
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 phone model is
included with the material accompanying this phone. This
information can also be found, together with more information on
radio frequency exposure and SAR, on: www.sonyericsson.com/
health.
Accessible Solutions/Special Needs
For phones sold in the US, you can use your TTY terminal with your
Sony Ericsson phone (with the necessary accessory). For
information on Accessible Solutions for individuals with special
needs call the Sony Ericsson Special Needs Center on 877 878
71
1996 (TTY) or 877 207 2056 (voice), or visit the Sony Ericsson
Special Needs Center at www.sonyericsson-snc.com.

NOT WARRANT AGAINST A SUBSEQUENT USER OF THE DEVICE
ACCESSING YOUR INFORMATION AND DOES NOT ASSUME ANY
RESPONSIBILITY FOR SUBSEQUENT DISCLOSURE OF SAID
INFORMATION EVEN IF A MASTER RESET HAS BEEN
72
PERFORMED. If you are concerned about such potential disclosure
retain your device or secure its permanent destruction.
Accessories
Sony Ericsson recommends use of Sony Ericsson original
accessories for safe and efficient use of its products. Use of thirdparty accessories may decrease performance or pose a risk to your
health or safety.

Limited Warranty
Sony Ericsson Mobile Communications AB, Nya Vattentornet, SE221 88 Lund, Sweden, (Sony Ericsson) or its local affiliated
company, provides this Limited Warranty for your phone and
original accessory delivered with your phone (hereinafter referred to
as "Product").
Should your Product need warranty service, please return it to the
dealer from whom it was purchased, or contact your local Sony
Ericsson Call Center (national rates may apply) or visit
www.SonyEricsson.com to get further information.
OUR WARRANTY
Subject to the conditions of this Limited Warranty, Sony Ericsson
warrants this Product to be free from defects in design, material and
workmanship at the time of its original purchase by a consumer.
This Limited Warranty will last for a period of one (1) year as from
the original date of purchase of the Product.
WHAT WE WILL DO
If, during the warranty period, this Product fails to operate under
normal use and service, due to defects in design, materials or
workmanship, Sony Ericsson authorized distributors or service
partners, in the country* where you purchased the Product, will, at
74
their option, either repair or replace the Product in accordance with
the terms and conditions stipulated herein.
Sony Ericsson and its service partners reserve the right to charge a
handling fee if a returned Product is found not to be under warranty
according to the conditions below.
Please note that some of your personal settings, downloads and
other information may be lost when your Sony Ericsson Product is
repaired or replaced. At present Sony Ericsson may be prevented
by applicable law, other regulation or technical restrictions from
making a backup copy of certain downloads. Sony Ericsson does
not take any responsibility for any lost information of any kind and
will not reimburse you for any such loss. You should always make
backup copies of all the information stored on your Sony Ericsson
Product such as downloads, calendar and contacts before handing
in your Sony Ericsson Product for repair or replacement.
CONDITIONS
1 This Limited Warranty is valid only if the original proof of
purchase for this Product issued by a Sony Ericsson authorized
dealer specifying the date of purchase and serial number**, is
presented with the Product to be repaired or replaced. Sony
Ericsson reserves the right to refuse warranty service if this
information has been removed or changed after the original
purchase of the Product from the dealer.
2 If Sony Ericsson repairs or replaces the Product, the repair for
the defect concerned, or the replaced Product shall be
warranted for the remaining time of the original warranty period
or for ninety (90) days from the date of repair, whichever is
longer. Repair or replacement may involve the use of functionally
equivalent reconditioned units. Replaced parts or components
will become the property of Sony Ericsson.
3 This warranty does not cover any failure of the Product due to
normal tear and wear, or due to misuse, including but not limited
to use in other than the normal and customary manner, in
accordance with the Sony Ericsson instructions for use and
maintenance of the Product. Nor does this warranty cover any
failure of the Product due to accident, software or hardware

modification or adjustment, acts of God or damage resulting
from liquid. A rechargeable battery can be charged and
discharged more than a hundred times. However, it will
eventually wear out - this is not a defect and corresponds to
normal wear and tear. When the talk-time or standby time is
noticeably shorter, it is time to replace your battery. Sony
Ericsson recommends that you use only batteries and chargers
approved by Sony Ericsson. Minor variations in display
brightness and color may occur between the phones. There may
be tiny bright or dark dots on the display. These are called
defective pixels and occur when individual dots have
malfunctioned and can not be adjusted. Two defective pixels are
deemed acceptable. Minor variations in camera image
appearance may occur between phones. This is nothing
uncommon and is not regarded as a defective camera module.
Since the cellular system on which the Product is to operate is
provided by a carrier independent from Sony Ericsson, Sony
Ericsson will not be responsible for the operation, availability,
coverage, services or range of that system.
This warranty does not cover Product failures caused by
installations, modifications, or repair or opening of the Product
performed by a non-Sony Ericsson authorised person.
The warranty does not cover Product failures which have been
caused by use of accessories or other peripheral devices which
are not Sony Ericsson branded original accessories intended for
use with the Product.
Tampering with any of the seals on the Product will void the
warranty.
THERE ARE NO EXPRESS WARRANTIES, WHETHER WRITTEN
OR ORAL, OTHER THAN THIS PRINTED LIMITED WARRANTY.
ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING WITHOUT
LIMITATION THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
PURPOSE, ARE LIMITED TO THE DURATION OF THIS LIMITED
WARRANTY. IN NO EVENT SHALL SONY ERICSSON OR ITS
LICENSORS BE LIABLE FOR INCIDENTAL OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY NATURE
76
WHATSOEVER, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOST
PROFITS OR COMMERCIAL LOSS; TO THE FULL EXTENT
THOSE DAMAGES CAN BE DISCLAIMED BY LAW.
Some countries/states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of
incidental or consequential damages, or limitation of the duration
of implied warranties, so the preceding limitations or exclusions
may not apply to you.
The warranty provided does not affect the consumer's statutory
rights under applicable legislation in force, nor the consumer's
rights against the dealer arising from their sales / purchase
contract.
*GEOGRAPHICAL SCOPE OF THE WARRANTY
If you have purchased your Product in a country member of the
European Economic Area (EEA) or in Switzerland or the Republic of
Turkey, and such Product was intended for sale in the EEA or in
Switzerland or in Turkey, you can have your Product serviced in any
EEA country or in Switzerland or in Turkey, under the warranty
conditions prevailing in the country in which you require servicing,
provided that an identical Product is sold in such country by an
authorised Sony Ericsson distributor. To find out if your Product is
sold in the country you are in, please call the local Sony Ericsson
Call Center. Please observe that certain services may not be
possible elsewhere than in the country of original purchase, for
