74 Important information
• Do not place your product or install wireless
equipment in the area above an air bag in your car.
•Caution: Cracked or broken displays may create
sharp edges or splinters that could be harmful upon
contact.
• Do not use your Bluetooth Headset in positions

pressure.
Children
Warning! Keep out of the reach of
children. Do not allow children to play
with mobile phones or accessories.
They could hurt themselves or others.
Products may contain small parts that could
become detached and create a choking hazard.
Power supply (Charger)
Connect the charger to power sources as marked
on the product. Do not use outdoors or in damp
areas. Do not alter or subject the cord to damage
or stress. Unplug the unit before cleaning it. Never
alter the plug. If it does not fit into the outlet, have
a proper outlet installed by an electrician. When
power supply is connected there is a small drain
of power. To avoid this small energy waste,
disconnect the power supply when the product
is fully charged. Use of charging devices that are
not Sony Ericsson branded may impose increased
safety risks.
Battery
New or idle batteries can have short-term reduced
capacity. Fully charge the battery before initial use.
Use for intended purpose only. Charge the battery
in temperatures between +5°C (+41°F) and +45°C
(+113°F). Do not put the battery into your mouth.
Do not let the battery contacts touch another metal
object. Turn off the product before removing the
battery. Performance depends on temperatures,
signal strength, usage patterns, features selected
and voice or data transmissions. Only Sony Ericsson
service partners should remove or replace built-in
batteries. Use of batteries that are not Sony Ericsson
branded may pose increased safety risks.
Personal medical devices
Mobile phones may affect implanted medical
equipment. Reduce risk of interference by keeping
a minimum distance of 15 cm (6 inches) between
the phone and the device. Use the phone at your
right ear. Do not carry the phone in your breast
pocket. Turn off the phone if you suspect
interference. For all medical devices, consult
a physician and the manufacturer.
Driving
Some vehicle manufacturers forbid the use
of phones in their vehicles unless a handsfree kit
with an external antenna supports the installation.
Check with your vehicle manufacturer’s
representative to be sure that your mobile phone
or Bluetooth handsfree will not affect the electronic
systems in your vehicle. Full attention should be
given to driving at all times and local laws and
regulations restricting the use of wireless devices
while driving must be observed.
GPS/Location based functions
Some products provide GPS/Location based
functions. Location determining functionality is
provided “As is” and “With all faults”. Sony Ericsson
does not make any representation or warranty as to
the accuracy of such location information.
Use of location-based information by the device
may not be uninterrupted or error free and may
additionally be dependent on network service
availability. Please note that functionality may be
reduced or prevented in certain environments such
as building interiors or areas adjacent to buildings.
Caution: Do not use GPS functionality in a manner
which causes distraction from driving.

75Important information
Emergency calls
Calls cannot be guaranteed under all conditions.
Never rely solely upon mobile phones for essential
communications. Calls may not be possible in all
areas, on all networks, or when certain network
services and/or phone features are used.
Antenna
Use of antenna devices not marketed by
Sony Ericsson could damage your phone, reduce
performance, and produce SAR levels above the
established limits. Do not cover the antenna with
your hand as this affects call quality, power levels
and can shorten talk and standby times.
Radio frequency (RF) exposure and
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR)
When your phone or Bluetooth handsfree is turned
on, it emits low levels of radio frequency energy.
International safety guidelines have been developed
through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific
studies. These guidelines establish permitted levels
of radio wave exposure. The guidelines include
a safety margin designed to assure the safety of
all persons and to account for any variations in
measurements.
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) is used to measure
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 because the phone is designed to
use the minimum power necessary to access the
chosen network, the actual SAR level can be well
below this value. There is no proof of difference
in safety based on difference in SAR value.
Products with radio transmitters sold in the US
must be certified by the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC). When required, tests are
performed when the phone is placed at the ear and
when worn on the body. For body-worn operation,
the phone has been tested when positioned
a minimum of 15 mm from the body without any
metal parts in the vicinity of the phone or when
properly used with an appropriate Sony Ericsson
accessory and worn on the body.
For more information about SAR and radio frequency
exposure go to: www.sonyericsson.com/health.
Malware
Malware (short for malicious software) is software
that can harm your mobile phone or other computers.
Malware or harmful applications can include
viruses, worms, spyware, and other unwanted
programs. While your device does employ security
measures to resist such efforts, Sony Ericsson
does not warrant or represent that your device will
be impervious to introduction of malware. You can
however reduce the risk of malware attacks by
using care when downloading content or accepting
applications, refraining from opening or responding
to messages from unknown sources, using
trustworthy services to access the Internet, and
only downloading content to your mobile phone
from known, reliable sources.
Accessories
Use only Sony Ericsson branded original accessories
and certified service partners. Sony Ericsson does
not test third-party accessories. Accessories may
influence RF Exposure, radio performance, sound
loudness, electric safety and other areas. Third-
party accessories and parts may pose a risk to your
health or safety or decrease performance.
Accessible Solutions/Special Needs
In the US, compatible Sony Ericsson phones may
offer compatibility with TTY terminals (with use of
necessary accessory). For more information call the
Sony Ericsson Special Needs Center on 877 878
1996 (TTY) or 877 207 2056 (voice), or go to
www.sonyericsson-snc.com.

76 Important information
Disposal of old electrical
and electronic equipment
Electronic equipment and batteries
should not be included as household
waste but should be left at an
appropriate collection point for recycling. This
helps prevent potential negative consequences for
the environment and human health. Check local
regulations by contacting your local city office, your
household waste disposal service, the shop where
you purchased the product or calling a Sony Ericsson
Call Center.
Disposing of the battery
Check local regulations or call
a Sony Ericsson Call Center for
information. Never use municipal
waste.
Memory card
If your product comes complete with a removable
memory card, it is generally compatible with the
handset purchased but may not be compatible with
other devices or the capabilities of their memory
cards. Check other devices for compatibility before
purchase or use. If your product is equipped with
a memory card reader, check memory card
compatibility before purchase or use.
The memory card is formatted prior to shipping.
To reformat the memory card, use a compatible
device. Do not use the standard operating system
format when formatting the memory card on a PC.
For details, refer to the operating instructions of the
device or contact customer support.
Warning!
If your device requires an adapter for insertion into
the handset or another device, do not insert the
card directly without the required adapter.
Precautions on Memory Card Use
• Do not expose the memory card to moisture.
• Do not touch terminal connections with your hand
or any metal object.
• Do not strike, bend, or drop the memory card.
• Do not attempt to disassemble or modify the
memory card.

• We recommend that you make a backup copy of
important data. We are not responsible for any loss
or damage to content you store on the memory
card.
• Recorded data may be damaged or lost when you
remove the memory card or memory card adapter,
or turn off the power while formatting, reading or
writing data, or when you use the memory card in
locations subject to static electricity or high electrical
field emissions.

Limited Warranty
Sony Ericsson Mobile Communications AB,
Nya Vattentornet, SE-221 88 Lund, Sweden,
(Sony Ericsson) or its local affiliated company,
provides this Limited Warranty for your mobile
phone, original accessory delivered with your
mobile phone, and/or your mobile computing
product (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/cn 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.
&FB8*B(1&KLQDBBBERRN3DJH7KXUVGD\$SULO30
78 Important information
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/region* where you
purchased the Product, will, at 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
1This 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.
2If 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.
3This 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 colour
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.
4Since 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.
&FB8*B(1&KLQDBBBERRN3DJH7KXUVGD\$SULO30
79Important information
5This 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.
6The 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.
7Tampering with any of the seals on the Product will
void the warranty.
8THERE 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
WHATSOEVER, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED
TO LOST PROFITS OR COMMERCIAL LOSS; TO
THE FULL EXTENT THOSE DAMAGES CAN BE
DISCLAIMED BY LAW.
Some countries/regions/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.
