About this User’s Guide
Some services and functions described in this User’s
Guide are network- and subscription-dependent.
Because of this, all menus may not be available in your

Please refer to the information provided by
your network operator for more information

holding your product (or portable handsfree device) to
your ear.
ANTENNA
Only use an antenna that has been specifically designed
by Sony Ericsson for your mobile phone. Use of
unauthorised or modified antennas could damage your
mobile phone and may violate regulations, causing loss
of performance and SAR levels above the recommended
limits (see below).
This is the Internet version of the user's guide. © Print only for private use.
62 Additional information
EFFICIENT USE
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.
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) 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 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 mobile phone while 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.
Therefore, the closer 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 phones, all Sony Ericsson mobile phone models
are designed to meet radio frequency exposure
guidelines.
Accessories can significantly affect a mobile phone's
compliance with the radio frequency exposure
guidelines. 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. To
avoid causing loss of performance or radio frequency
exposure levels above the permissible limits it is
recommended that you only use Sony Ericsson or
Ericsson original accessories intended for use with the
mobile phone. If you wear the mobile phone on your
body while it is transmitting, and you do not use a Sony
Ericsson or Ericsson original body worn accessory,
please ensure that the mobile phone is positioned a
minimum of 1.5 cm from your body and that you are not
using an accessory that contain any metal.
This is the Internet version of the user's guide. © Print only for private use.
Additional information 63
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, on: www.sonyericsson.com.
DRIVING
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
Ericsson or 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 supports the installation.
Always give full attention to driving and pull off the
road and park before making or answering a call if driving
conditions so require.
PERSONAL MEDICAL DEVICES
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.
For other medical devices, please consult the
manufacturer of the device.
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 not be placed in
municipal waste. Please check local
regulations for disposal of electronic
products.
POWER SUPPLY
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

64 Additional information
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.
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).
Emergency calls may not be possible on all cellular
networks or when certain network services and/or mobile
phone features are in use. Check with your local service
provider.
Emergency Response Center Location Technology
Using wireless technology to help find you in case of an
emergency is a goal shared by the entire wireless
industry, local phone companies and the emergency
response centers. Your phone may support an
emergency positioning system being implemented by
some service providers. But the complexity of mobile
communication technology, combined with related
implementation technologies, means that your wireless
carrier, the local phone companies, and emergency
response centers all have a role to play in implementing
this capability.
So even if your phone supports this technology and
even if the locating features works in one area there is no
guarantee that it will work in all areas for all calls to
emergency response centers. Always review with an
emergency response center all location data you have,
including intersecting streets, as well as any landmarks,
to assist in locating you.
Sony Ericsson is committed to continuing to work with
the entire communications industry to improve location
features for emergency response.
Sony Ericsson is not liable for any service(s)
including operation, coverage, or range of the network
services provided by network carriers independent of
Sony Ericsson.
BATTERY USE AND CARE
We recommend that you fully charge the battery
before you use your mobile phone for the first time.
The battery can only be charged in temperatures
between +5°C (+41°F) and +45°C (+113°F).
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 talk and standby times depend on the actual
transmission conditions when using the mobile phone. If
the mobile phone is used near a base station, less power
is required and talk and standby times are prolonged.
•Warning! May explode if disposed of in fire.

If, during the warranty period, this Product fails to
operate under normal use and service, due to defects in

DAMAGES OF ANY NATURE 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

Ericsson distributor. To find out if your Product is sold in
the EU country you are in, please call the local Sony
Ericsson Customer Care Centre. Please observe that
certain services may not be possible elsewhere than in
the country of original purchase, for example, due to the
fact that your Product may have an interior or exterior

EU countries. It may not be possible to repair SIM-locked
Products.

68 Additional information
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. Body worn measurements are made while the
phone is in use and worn on the body with, if available,
an Ericsson or Sony Ericsson branded original accessory
intended for use with the phone. The design and
composition of an accessory can affect the body worn
SAR (Specific Absorption Rate) levels for the phone.
Sony Ericsson has not measured, and makes no
representation about, the body worn SAR levels when
the phone is used with non-Ericsson or non-Sony
Ericsson branded original accessories intended for use
with the phone.

The term "IC:" before the radio certification number only
signifies that industry Canada technical specifications
were met.
