Guidelines for Safe and
Efficient Use
Please follow these guidelines. Failure to do so
might entail a potential health risk or product
malfunction. If in doubt as to its proper function,
have the product checked by a certified service
partner before charging or using it.
Important information 71
Recommendations for care and safe
use of our products
•Handle with care and keep in a clean and dust-
free place.
•Warning! May explode if disposed of in fire.
•Do not expose your product to liquid or moisture
or excess humidity.
•Do not expose to extreme temperatures. Do not
expose the battery to temperatures above
+60°C(+140°F).
•Do not expose to flames or lit tobacco products.
•Do not drop, throw or try to bend your product.
•Do not paint or attempt to disassemble or modify
your product. Only Sony Ericsson authorised
personnel should perform service.
•Consult with authorized medical staff and the
instructions of the medical device manufacturer
before using your product near pacemakers or
other medical devices or equipment.
•Discontinue use of electronic devices or disable
the radio transmitting functionality of the device
where required or requested to do so.
•Do not use where a potentially explosive
atmosphere exists.
•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
where it is uncomfortable or will be subject to
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.
72 Important information
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.
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.
Important information 73
Flight mode
Bluetooth and WLAN functionality, if available in
your device, can be enabled in Flight mode but may
be prohibited onboard aircraft or in other areas
where radio transmissions are prohibited. In such
environments, please seek proper authorization
before enabling Bluetooth or WLAN functionality
even in Flight mode.
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.
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.
Memory cards are generally 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.
74 Important information
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.

Limited Warranty
Sony Ericsson Mobile Communications AB,
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 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.
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* 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
1. This 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.
2. If 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.
76 Important information
3. This 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.
4. Since 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.
5. This 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.
6. The 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.
7. Tampering with any of the seals on the Product will
void the warranty.
8. THERE 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/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.
*Geographical scope of the warranty
If you have purchased your Product in a country
member of the European Economic Area (EEA) or in
Switzerland or the Republic of Turkey, and such
Product was intended for sale in the EEA or in
Switzerland or in Turkey, you can have your Product
serviced in any EEA country or in Switzerland or in
Turkey, under the warranty conditions prevailing in
the country in which you require servicing, provided
that an identical Product is sold in such country by
an authorised Sony Ericsson distributor. To find out
if your Product is sold in the country you are in,
please call the local Sony Ericsson Call Center.
Please observe that certain services may not be
possible elsewhere than in the country of original

(such as a valid warranty card) may be requested.
