that stroke or relating to that letter 
appears at the bottom of the screen.
If the character you want is not displayed
in the candidate row, press

is displayed. Alternatively, you can enter 
the next stroke or Pinyin letter and a new
set of characters will immediately be 
displayed in the candidate row. To go 
back to the previous row, press  . 
To select a character in the candidate 
row, press the navigation key or press 
and hold the key corresponding to the 
number above the character you want 
to enter.

strokes.
 There are more than 30 basic 
strokes, which are grouped into 
5 stroke categories. Each category is 
represented on the keypad by one of 
the keys   –  . The Wild Card 
key  , is used when you are not 
sure of which stroke to use. 
Multitap input only applies when Latin 
characters are selected as writing 
language.

Components
The basic building units of Chinese 
characters are components that are 
made up of strokes. After entering the 
first two strokes of the desired character,
the component and character candidates
that started with that stroke are displayed

2Move the cursor to “ֵ”, press  .
3Move the cursor to “ ᙃ”, press   
again to select “ ᙃ”.
Example of using the wild card key
The wild card key  , is used to 
supplement unclear strokes in entering 
characters. If you want to enter “ Ѧ”, 
but you only know that “ ϔ” is the 
first and the last stroke of the character 
and that the total number of strokes 
is four, enter , , , . 
The character is displayed in the 
candidate row.

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.
Note: The environmental protection period (EPUP) 
of battery is 5 years.
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.

77Important information
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.
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/cn.
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.

78 Important information
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.
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.

(Sony Ericsson) or its local affiliated company provides
this Limited Warranty for your mobile phone and 
original accessory delivered with your mobile 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/cn to get further 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 
authorised 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 or 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
1The warranty is valid only if the original proof 
of purchase issued to the original purchaser by 
a Sony Ericsson authorised dealer, specifying the 
date of purchase and serial number**, for this 
Product,
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 
repaired or replaced Product shall be warranted for 
the remaining time of the original warranty period or 
for thirty (30) 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 wear and tear, or due to misuse,

81Important information
Minor variations in display brightness and color 
may occur between 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 the appearance of the camera image
may occur between phones. This is not uncommon 
in digital cameras and does not mean that the camera
is defective in any way.
