When your device is on and left idle for a set period of time, the screen darkens to save battery power and locks automatically. This lock prevents unwanted actions on the touchscreen when you are not using it. When you buy your device, a basic screen swipe lock is already set. This means that you have to swipe in any direction from the middle of the screen to unlock it. You can change the security settings later and add other kinds of locks. See

Screen lock on page 53.

To send multimedia messages, or to access the Internet when there is no available

Wi-Fi® network, you must have a working mobile data connection with the correct

Internet and MMS (Multimedia Messaging Service) settings. Here are some tips:

For most mobile networks and operators, Internet and MMS settings come preinstalled on your device. You can then start using the Internet and send multimedia messages right away.

In some cases, you get the option to download Internet and MMS settings the first time you turn on your device when a SIM card is inserted. It is also possible to download these settings later from the Settings menu.

You can manually add, change or delete Internet and MMS settings on your device at any time. Contact your network operator for detailed information.

If you cannot access the Internet over a mobile network or if multimedia messaging is not working, even though the Internet and MMS settings have been downloaded successfully to your device, refer to the troubleshooting tips for your device at www.sonymobile.com/support/ for network coverage, mobile data, and MMS issues.

WPS

WPS (Wi-Fi® Protected Setup) is a computing standard that helps you establish secure wireless network connections. If you have little background knowledge of wireless security, WPS makes it easy for you to set up Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) encryption to secure your network. You can also add new devices to an existing network without entering long passwords.

Use one of these methods to enable WPS:

Push button method – simply push a button on a WPS-supported device, for example, a router.

PIN method – your device creates a random PIN (Personal Identification Number), which you enter on the WPS-supported device.

Virtual private networks

Use your device to connect to virtual private networks (VPNs), which allow you to access resources inside a secured local network from a public network. For example,

VPN connections are commonly used by corporations and educational institutions for users who need to access intranets and other internal services when they are outside of the internal network, for example, when they are travelling.

VPN connections can be set up in many ways, depending on the network. Some networks may require you to transfer and install a security certificate on your device.

For detailed information on how to set up a connection to your virtual private network, please contact the network administrator of your company or organisation.

SIM card protection

You can lock and unlock each SIM card that you use in your device with a PIN

(Personal Identity Number). When a SIM card is locked, the subscription linked to the card is protected against misuse, meaning that you have to enter a PIN every time you start your device.

If you enter the PIN incorrectly more times than the maximum number of attempts allowed, your SIM card will become blocked. You then need to enter your PUK

(Personal Unblocking Key) and a new PIN. Your PIN and PUK are supplied by your network operator.

Adding medical and emergency contact information

1

You can add and edit ICE (In Case of Emergency) information in the Contacts application. You can enter medical details, such as allergies and medications that you are using, plus information about relatives and friends who can be contacted in case of emergency. After setup, your ICE information can be accessed from the security lock screen. This means that even if the screen is locked, for example, by a PIN, pattern or password, emergency personnel can still retrieve your ICE information.

The Messaging application shows your messages as conversations, which means that all messages to and from a particular person are grouped together. To send multimedia messages, you need the correct MMS settings on your device. See

Internet and MMS settings on page 36.

The number of characters that you can send in a single message varies depending on the operator and the language you use. The maximum size of a multimedia message, which includes the size of added media files, is also operator dependent. Contact your network operator for more information.

Connect the device and computer using a USB cable and drag and drop music files directly into the file manager application on the computer. See Managing files using a computer on page 174.

If the computer is a PC, you can use the Media Go™ application from Sony and organise your music files, create playlists, subscribe to podcasts, and more. To learn more and download the Media Go™ application, go to http://mediago.sony.com/enu/ features.

If the computer is an Apple® Mac®, you can use the Sony Bridge for Mac application to transfer your media files from iTunes to your device. To learn more and download

Sony Bridge for Mac, go to www.sonymobile.com/global-en/tools/bridge-for-mac/.

The Walkman® application may not support all music file formats. For more information about supported file formats and the use of multimedia (audio, image and video) files, download the

The FM radio in your device works like any FM radio. For example, you can browse and listen to FM radio stations and save them as favourites. You must connect a wired headset or headphones to your device before you can use the radio. This is because the headset or headphones act as an antenna. After one of these devices is connected, you can then switch the radio sound to the speaker, if desired.

Version 2.1.2

Before you start using the Movies application, it’s a good idea to transfer movies, TV shows and other video content to your device from other devices, such as a computer. There are several ways to transfer your content:

Connect your device to a computer using a USB cable and drag and drop the video files directly using the file manager application on the computer. See

Managing files using a computer on page 174.

If you have a PC, use the Media Go™ application from Sony to organise content and transfer video files to your device via the PC. To learn more and download the Media

Go™ application, go to http://mediago.sony.com/enu/features.

If your computer is an Apple® Mac®, you can use Sony Bridge for Mac to transfer video files from iTunes to your device. To learn more and download Sony Bridge for

Mac, go to www.sonymobile.com/global-en/tools/bridge-for-mac/.

Pairing with another Bluetooth device

When you pair your device with another device, you can, for example, connect your device to a Bluetooth

®

headset or a Bluetooth

®

car kit and use these other devices to share music.

Once you pair your device with another Bluetooth

®

device, your device remembers this pairing. When pairing your device with a Bluetooth

®

device, you may need to enter a passcode. Your device will automatically try the generic passcode 0000. If this does not work, refer to the user guide for your Bluetooth

®

device to get the device passcode. You do not need to re-enter the passcode the next time you connect to a previously paired Bluetooth

®

device.

Some Bluetooth

®

devices, for example, most Bluetooth

®

headsets, require you to both pair and connect with the other device.

You can pair your device with several Bluetooth

®

devices, but you can only connect to one

Bluetooth

®

profile at the same time.

About location services

4

Location services allow applications such as Maps and the camera to use information from mobile and Wi-Fi® networks as well as Global Positioning System (GPS) information to determine your approximate location. If you're not within a clear line of sight to GPS satellites, your device can determine your location using the Wi-Fi® function. And if you're not within range of a Wi-Fi® network, your device can determine your location using your mobile network.

In order to use your device to find out where you are, you need to enable location services.

Google Maps™ overview

Version 1

Use Google Maps™ to track your current location, view real-time traffic situations and receive detailed directions to your destination.

When you view a map, you use data traffic to get an Internet connection, and data is transferred to your device. So it's a good idea to save a map and make it available offline before you take a trip. This way, you can avoid high roaming costs.

The Google Maps™ application requires the use of an Internet connection when used online.

You may incur data connection charges when you connect to the Internet from your device.

Contact your network operator for more information. The Google Maps™ application may not be available in every market, country or region.

Your device has an embedded battery. You can keep track of your battery consumption and see which applications are using the most power. You can also view an estimate of how much time is left before your battery runs out. The estimated battery time is based on your most recent usage pattern.

To make the battery last longer you can use one or more battery saving modes, which include STAMINA mode, Low battery mode, Location-based Wi-Fi®, and

Queue background data mode. Each mode works in a different way and controls several power consuming functions on your device.

Version 4

STAMINA mode turns off functions that you don't need when your device isn't in use.

For example, STAMINA mode can pause your Wi-Fi® connection, data traffic and several power consuming applications when your device is powered on but the screen is inactive. So you save the battery but can still receive phone calls, texts and multimedia messages as they come in. You can also exclude individual applications from being paused by STAMINA mode. Once you activate the screen, all paused functions are resumed.

Memory and storage

Your device has different types of memory and storage possibilities for photos, apps and other files:

The internal storage is about

4.9 GB and is used to store downloaded or transferred content along with personal settings and data. Examples are alarm, volume and language settings, emails, bookmarks, contacts, calendar events, photos, videos and music.

You can use a removable memory card of up to

32 GB to get more storage space.

Most applications can read data from a memory card but only certain apps can save files to this type of memory. You can, for example, set the camera application to save photos directly to the memory card.

The dynamic memory (RAM) is about

1 GB and cannot be used for storage. RAM is used to handle running applications and the operating system.

You may have to purchase a memory card separately.

Read more about the use of memory in Android devices by downloading the White paper for your device at www.sonymobile.com/support.

Using your device in wet and dusty conditions

Version 3

To ensure the water resistance of your device, all covers, including the covers for the micro

USB port, the SIM card slot and the memory card slot, must be firmly closed.

Your smart device is waterproof and dust resistant in compliance with the Ingress

Protection (IP) ratings IP65 and IP68, as explained in the table below. To view more specific IP information about your device, go to www.sonymobile.com/global-en/ legal/testresults/ and click on the relevant device name.

These specific IP ratings mean that your device is dust resistant and is protected against low pressure water stream as well as against the effects of immersion for 30 minutes in fresh (non-saline) water up to 1.5 metres deep.

You can use your device:

• in dusty environments, for example, on a windy beach.

• when your fingers are wet.

• in some extreme weather conditions, for example, when it’s snowing or raining.

• in fresh (non-saline) water depths of 1.5 metres or less, for example, in a fresh water lake or river.

• in a chlorinated swimming pool.

Even if your device is resistant to dust and water, you should avoid exposing it unnecessarily to environments with excessive dust, sand and mud or to moist environments with extreme high or low temperatures. The waterproof ability of the micro USB port, the SIM card slot, the memory card slot and the headset jack cannot be guaranteed in all environments or conditions.

Never immerse your device in salt water or let the micro USB port or headset jack come in contact with salt water. For example, if you’re at the beach, remember to keep your device away from the sea water. Also, never expose the device to any liquid chemicals. For example, if you’re washing dishes by hand using liquid detergent, avoid bringing your device in contact with the detergent. After exposure to non-fresh water, rinse your device using fresh water.

Normal wear and tear along with damage to your device can reduce its ability to resist dust or moisture. After using the device in water, dry off the areas around all covers, including the covers for the micro USB port, the SIM card slot and the memory card slot.

If the speaker or microphone get wet, their function may be impacted until the water has completely dried. Please note that the drying time can be up to three hours depending on the environment. During this time, you can, however, use other features in the device that do not utilise the speaker or microphone. All compatible accessories, including batteries, chargers, handsfree devices and micro USB cables, are not waterproof and dust resistant on their own.

Your warranty does not cover damage or defects caused by abuse or improper use of your device (including use in environments where the relevant IP rating limitations are exceeded). If you have any further questions about the use of your products, refer to our Customer support service for help. Also, for warranty information, refer to the

Important information which can be accessed via the Setup guide in your device.
