Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use 1
Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use
Your mobile phone is a highly sophisticated electronic
device. To get the most out of your mobile phone, please
read this text about product care, and safe and efficient use.
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 (hereinafter 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.
Antenna Care
Your mobile phone is equipped with either an internal or
external antenna.
To avoid impaired performance, please ensure that your
mobile phone’s antenna is not damaged.
Do not remove the antenna yourself.
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).
Not for Commercial Use
2 Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use
Efficient Use
For optimum performance with minimum power
consumption please:
•If your mobile phone is equipped with a retractable
antenna, Sony Ericsson recommends that the antenna
should be kept fully retracted (closed) while the phone is
worn on the body to avoid the antenna touching, or
coming in close proximity to, the body.
•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.
•Do not use the mobile phone when the front and/or
back cover is removed from the unit.
•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.
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).
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.
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 phone while
operating can be well below this value.
This is because the phone is designed to use the minimum
power required to reach the network. Therefore, the closer
Not for Commercial Use
Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use 3
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.
Accessories can significantly affect SAR compliance. For
example, the Federal Communication Commission in the
U.S. requires that some manufacturers’ accessories shall be
tested, and Sony Ericsson has done so with respect to its
products. Sony Ericsson has not tested non-original
accessories in conjunction with Sony Ericsson mobile
phones. It is therefore recommended that only original
accessories are used in conjunction with Sony Ericsson
mobile phones.
More information on radio frequency exposure and SAR
can be found on: www.SonyEricsson.com
* Examples of radio-frequency exposure guidelines and
standards that Sony Ericsson mobile phone models are
designed to conform to:
•International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation
Protection (ICNIRP), “Guidelines for limiting exposure
to time-varying electric, magnetic, and electromagnetic
fields (up to 300 GHz)”, Health Physics, vol. 74, pp
494-522, April 1998.
•99/519/EC, “Council Recommendation of 12 July 1999
on the limitation of exposure of the general public to
electromagnetic fields (0 Hz to 300 GHz)”, Official
Journal of the European Communities, 1999.
•IEEE C95.1-1991, “Safety levels with respect to human
exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic fields, 3
kHz to 300 GHz”, The Institute of Electrical and
Electronics Engineers Inc. (IEEE).
•FCC Report and Order, ET Docket 93-62, FCC 96-
326, Federal Communications Commission (FCC),
August 1996.
•Radiocommunications (Electromagnetic Radiation
Human Exposure) Standard 1999, Australian
Communications Authority (ACA), May 1999.
Driving
Please check if local laws and/or regulations, in the country/
state where you are, restrict the use of mobile phones while
driving.
Law in many countries/states requires drivers to use a
Hands Free solution. Sony Ericsson recommends that you
Not for Commercial Use
4 Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use
use only Sony Ericsson or Ericsson branded Hands Free
solutions intended for use with this product.
Sony Ericsson is concerned about your safety. Always give
full attention to driving and pull off the road and park
before making or answering a call if driving conditions so
require.
RF energy may affect some electronic systems in motor
vehicles such as car stereo, safety equipment etc. In
addition, some vehicle manufacturers do not allow use of
mobile phones in their vehicles, unless a Hands Free kit
with an external antenna supports the installation. Check
with your vehicle manufacturer’s representative to be sure
that your mobile phone will not affect the electronic
systems in your vehicle.
Vehicles Equipped with an Air Bag
An air bag inflates with great force. Do not place objects,
including either installed or portable wireless equipment, in
the area over the air bag or in the air bag deployment area. If
in-vehicle wireless equipment is improperly installed and
the air bag inflates, serious injury could result.
Electronic Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF
signals. However, certain electronic equipment may not be
shielded against the RF signals from your mobile phone,
therefore:
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association
recommends that a minimum separation of six (6”) inches
(15 cm) be maintained between a handheld wireless phone
and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the
pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with the
independent research by and recommendations of Wireless
Technology Research.
Persons with pacemakers:
•Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than six inches
from their pacemaker when the phone is turned ON;
•Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket;
•Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize
the potential for interference.
•If you have any reason to suspect that interference is
taking place, turn your phone OFF immediately.
Hearing Aids
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some
hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may
Not for Commercial Use
Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use 5
want to consult your service provider or call your local Sony
Ericsson Contact Center to discuss alternatives.
Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical device, consult the
manufacturer of your device to determine if they are
adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your
physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this
information.
Turn your phone OFF in health care facilities when any
regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do so.
Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment
that could be sensitive to external RF energy.
Turn your phone OFF in any facility where posted notices
so require.
Aircraft
•Turn off your mobile phone before boarding any aircraft.
•To prevent interference with communication systems,
you must not use your mobile phone while the plane is
in the air.
•Do not use it on the ground without permission from
the crew.
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 Atmosphere
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.
Do not transport or store flammable gas, liquid, or
explosives in the same compartment of your vehicle that
contains your mobile phone and accessories.
Power Supply
Connect the AC power adapter only to designated power
sources as marked on the product.
Not for Commercial Use
6 Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use
To reduce risk of damage to the electric cord, remove it
from the outlet by holding onto the AC adapter rather than
the cord.
Make sure the cord is positioned so that it will not be
stepped on, tripped over or otherwise 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.
DANGER - Never alter the AC cord or plug. If the plug
will not fit into the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by
a qualified electrician. Improper connection can result in
risk of electric chock.
Children
DO NOT ALLOW CHILDREN TO PLAY WITH
YOUR MOBILE PHONE OR ITS ACCESSORIES.
THEY COULD HURT THEMSELVES OR OTHERS,
OR COULD ACCIDENTALLY DAMAGE THE
MOBILE PHONE OR ACCESSORY. YOUR MOBILE
PHONE OR ITS ACCESSORY MAY CONTAIN
SMALL PARTS THAT COULD BE DETACHED AND
CREATE A CHOKING HAZARD.
Disposing of the Product
Your mobile phone should never be placed in municipal
waste. Please check local regulations for disposal of
electronic products.
Emergency Calls
IMPORTANT!
This mobile phone, like any mobile phone, operates using
radio signals, cellular and landline networks as well as user-
programmed functions, which cannot guarantee connection
under all conditions. Therefore you should never rely solely
upon any mobile phone for essential communications (e.g.
medical emergencies).
Remember, in order to make or receive calls, the mobile
phone must be switched on and in a service area with
adequate cellular signal strength. Emergency calls may not
be possible on all cellular phone networks or when certain
network services and/or mobile phone features are in use.
Check with your local service provider.

Tips
•Try to record in an area where there is little or no
background noise or other people speaking.
•Try to record your voice with the same equipment that
you normally use with your phone. For example, if you
normally have your phone connected to a portable
handsfree device when using voice commands, record
your voice commands when your phone is attached to a
portable handsfree device.
•If you plan to use voice functions handheld mode, hold
the phone up to the ear in the position that would
normally be used on a call.
•Begin speaking after the tone ends.
•Keep in mind that longer tags provide a higher
recognition rate.
•Shorter tags may cause a lower recognition rate. For
example, the name “Tom” can easily be confused with
“Tim”.
•Record your voice using the same tone and inflection as
you would when normally speaking. Try not to
overpronounce or speak too slowly when recording.
•When using Portable handsfree devices, you can easily
activate voice dialing by pressing the button near the
microphone until you hear a prompt.
Troubleshooting
If your phone cannot detect speech, one of the following
might have happened:
•You spoke too softly – try speaking more loudly.
•You held the phone too far away – hold it as you do
during a call.
•The voice command was too short – it should be around
one second long.
•You spoke too late or too soon – speak immediately after
the tone.
•You may want to re-record the voice command.

76 Making Data and Fax Calls
Making Data and Fax Calls
You can use your phone in Wireless Modem Operation
when it is powered on with a serial interface cable attached
from your phone to your computer.
Your mobile phone contains a modem similar to the
modems you use to connect your computer to your home
or office telephone service. Rather than connecting to
standard telephone lines, however, the modem in your
mobile phone allows you to connect your computer to the
mobile telephone system. In places where mobile network
service providers provide the necessary support, you can use
your mobile phone to send or receive faxes, upload or
download data files, or access the Internet.
This chapter will assist you with setting up your computer
and phone to handle data, fax, and Internet calls on the
mobile network.
Differences Between Data, Fax, and
Internet Calls
Your mobile phone can handle data, fax, and Internet calls,
but each type of call requires corresponding software that
must be running on your computer.
Data Calls
Data calls are placed to exchange computer files between
two computers. While the data connection is in place, files
can be transferred between the connected computers,
according to the capabilities of the software in use. When a
data call is made, the connection will remain in place until
it is closed by one of the computers involved. To make or
receive data calls with your mobile phone, you must have a
properly configured communications program running on
your computer.
Fax Calls
Fax calls are placed to send fax messages. When a fax
message has been sent, your fax software or the originating
fax machine will terminate the call. To make or receive fax
calls with your mobile phone, you must have a properly
configured fax program running on your computer.
Internet Calls
Internet calls are placed to Internet Service Providers (ISP)
when you want to use email or access websites on the World
Wide Web. To make Internet calls, you must have an
account with an ISP and a properly configured Internet
Not for Commercial Use
Making Data and Fax Calls 77
access program (browser) running on your computer. When
your software is installed and set up to dial your ISP, calls
can be made using the normal dialing procedure. Once a
connection to your ISP is established, it will remain in place
until you disconnect or until it is automatically
disconnected due to the degradation of signal quality or due
to inactivity.
Before You Start
Before setting up your phone for data operation, do the
following:
•You must have a serial interface cable (RS 232 data cable
DRS-11) to connect your mobile phone to your
computer. For more information about ordering this and
other accessories, see “Ordering Accessories” on page 82.
•Confirm that your mobile service provider supports
digital data services in your planned usage area.
•Verify that you have the necessary subscription.
Setting Up Your Computer
To operate properly with the modem in your mobile phone,
make sure that your computer has the following hardware
and software:
•A functional serial port
•An operating system that supports data access software,
such as Windows 95 or Windows 98
•Appropriate fax (class 2.0), Internet access, or file transfer
software
Initial Setup
Successful first-time setup of your phone and computer for
data operation involves the following steps:
Note! Throughout this chapter, references to data/fax/
internet will be referred to as data.
Note! The availability of digital mobile voice service
does not necessarily imply that your mobile
service provider supports digital data operation.
Note! Class “2.0” is different from Class “2”.
Not for Commercial Use
78 Making Data and Fax Calls
1 Connect your computer to your
phone with your DRS-11 serial
interface cable. The cable has a plug on
one end that matches the receptacle on
the bottom of your mobile phone. The
other end of the cable has a 9-pin
female connector that matches the standard 9-pin serial
interface port connector. Connect one end of the cable to
your mobile phone and the other end to the serial port
on your computer.
2 Install your modem control software (driver).
The modem driver that you need for your mobile phone
is available at www.SonyEricsson.com/mobileinternet.
Refer to this web site for help with installing drivers for
different operating systems.
3 Set up your data access software according to the
instructions supplied on www.SonyEricsson.com/
mobileinternet.
Operation
Making and Receiving Data and Fax Calls
When your phone and computer are properly set up, you
can send a fax, or initiate data calls, as with any other
modem.
Review the instructions from your mobile service provider
that describe the procedures and rules for making and
receiving data calls in your area.
Disconnecting
Disconnect your mobile phone from your computer by
disconnecting the cable from your phone and from the
serial port on your computer.
Use with Other Sony Ericsson or Ericsson Chargers
To cha rge yo u r ph o n e’s battery with a rapid or travel charger
during data operation, do the following:
Note! If you are trying to connect to a 25-pin serial
interface port on your computer, you will need an
adapter. You can purchase a 25-pin serial interface
port adapter at most computer supply stores.
Note! To avoid unnecessary airtime charges, terminate
your data calls, by pressing the No key, as soon as
you have finished transferring files.
Not for Commercial Use
Making Data and Fax Calls 79
1 Plug one end of the serial
interface cable into your
phone.
2 Plug the other end of the
serial interface cable into the
serial port on your computer.
3 Plug the charger cable into the
bottom of the connector.
4 Plug the charger cable into the wall outlet.
Achieving Best Performance
Charging your Battery
Both your mobile phone and your laptop computer
batteries should be well-charged before starting data
operation. This will help you avoid interruptions due to loss
of power.
You can charge your phone’s battery with an Sony Ericsson
or Ericsson charger during data/fax operation as previously
described.
Signal Strength
It is important to maintain a good signal path between the
phone and the mobile telephone system when making data
calls. Signals will generally be stronger when the phone is in
an upright position. If you are indoors, your signal will
generally be stronger when the phone is near a window.
In a Vehicle
It is possible to receive data calls when inside your vehicle.
Operation from a moving vehicle may not be satisfactory
because data may be lost when your call is transferred from
one mobile base station to another. Be sure to give full
attention to driving and pull off the road and park before
making or receiving calls, if driving conditions so require.
Transmission Disturbances
Brief interruptions of mobile telephone signals that would
not be bothersome during a voice call may cause problems
during data operation, depending upon the error correction
capabilities of the software being used. Such interruptions
are uncommon during stationary operation, but can be
caused by vehicles or people passing nearby, especially in
areas of low signal strength. You can use the signal strength
indicator on your phone to verify that you have a good
signal path.

Troubleshooting
My phone
does not
turn On.
Recharge or replace the battery.
My phone
does not ring
when a call
is received.
Check for Ringer Off () or Silent
Mode () icons on the standby
screen.
My signal
strength
varies.
This is a common occurrence.
Transmitters are set in geographic
areas, and coverage is not 100% all of
the time. Signal strength varies as
you travel between cells.
I cannot
connect to
the modem.
Make sure that your serial interface
cable is connected to both your
phone and your computer. If the
problem still exists, consult your
computer’s user’s guide.
I cannot
receive a
data call.
You may need to configure your
phone manually to receive a data call.
I am having
problems
downloading
information.
Make sure that your phone is still in
Wireless Modem Operation by
checking your phone’s display. If you
travel to a region with a weak signal,
the connection can be dropped. If
this happens, you will need to re-
establish a connection to the internet
once you have enough signal
strength.
I do not see
the WAP
icon.
You are not in an area with strong
enough service to establish a modem
connection.
