To charge the battery
1Connect the charger to the phone.
2Remove the charger by tilting the plug upwards.
Note
•If there are two USB cables in the kit (a USB cable for charging and a USB cable for data
transfer), the USB cable for charging is only intended for charging your phone. Do not
use it for transferring data. The USB cable for the USB charger is only intended for
connection to the AC adapter to charge your phone. It must not be used for connection
to a computer. It can only be used for charging your phone. Never use it for charging
accessories.
•If there is only one USB cable in the kit, it is intended for charging your phone as well as
transferring data.
•If there is only one USB cable for the USB charger in the phone kit, this USB cable is only
intended for charging your phone.
•To charge your phone, Sony Ericsson strongly recommends that you use only
Sony Ericsson branded original batteries, a power supply which is in accordance
with specification YD/T 1591-2006 (a Communications Industry standard of P. R.
China) , and the USB cable supplied with your phone. The use of third-party products
may decrease the performance of your phone and/or pose a risk to your health or safety
You can charge the battery for more or less than 3 hours. Interrupted charging does not damage
the battery. Performance depends on temperatures, signal strength, usage patterns, features
selected and voice or data transmissions. The standby time for this battery is up to 400 hours.
Use only Sony Ericsson branded original batteries intended for use with your mobile phone. If
you use other batteries you may not be able to charge your phone.
Maximising battery performance
•Charge your phone often. The battery lasts longer if you charge it frequently.
•If you are in an area with no coverage, your phone repeatedly scans for available networks.
This consumes power. If you cannot move to an area with better coverage, turn off your
phone temporarily.
•Do not cover the phone antenna when you are engaged in a call.
Go to
www.sonyericsson.com/support
to learn more about how to maximise the battery
performance.

Tips on using the camera
Rule of thirds
Don’t place your subject in the middle of the frame. By placing it a third of the way in, you
achieve a better result.
Hold it steady
Avoid blurry photos by holding the camera steady. Try to steady your hand by leaning it
against a solid object. You can also use the self-timer to make sure that the phone is steady
when the photo is taken.
26
This is an Internet version of this publication. © Print only for private use.
Get closer
By getting as close as possible to your subject, you can avoid relying on the zoom. Try to
fill the viewfinder with your subject.
Stay within the flash range
Photos taken beyond the maximum flash range will be too dark. The maximum flash range
is about four steps from the subject.
Consider variety
Think about different angles, and move towards the object. Take some vertical photos. Try
different positions.
Use a plain background
A plain background helps highlight your subject.
Keep your lens clean
Mobile phones are used in all kinds of weather and places, and carried in pockets and bags.
This results in the camera lens becoming dirty and covered with fingerprints. Use a soft
cloth to clean the lens.

Note
•If there are two USB cables in the kit (a USB cable for charging and a USB cable for data
transfer), the USB cable for charging is only intended for charging your phone. Do not
use it for transferring data. The USB cable for the USB charger is only intended for
connection to the AC adapter to charge your phone. It must not be used for connection
to a computer. It can only be used for charging your phone. Never use it for charging
accessories.
•If there is only one USB cable in the kit, it is intended for charging your phone as well as
transferring data.
•If there is only one USB cable for the USB charger in the phone kit, this USB cable is only
intended for charging your phone.
•To charge your phone, Sony Ericsson strongly recommends that you use only
Sony Ericsson branded original batteries, a power supply which is in accordance
with specification YD/T 1591-2006 (a Communications Industry standard of P. R.
China) , and the USB cable supplied with your phone. The use of third-party products
may decrease the performance of your phone and/or pose a risk to your health or safety
You can charge the battery for more or less than 3 hours. Interrupted charging does not damage
the battery. Performance depends on temperatures, signal strength, usage patterns, features
selected and voice or data transmissions. The standby time for this battery is up to 400 hours.
Use only Sony Ericsson branded original batteries intended for use with your mobile phone. If
you use other batteries you may not be able to charge your phone.
Maximising battery performance
•Charge your phone often. The battery lasts longer if you charge it frequently.
•If you are in an area with no coverage, your phone repeatedly scans for available networks.
This consumes power. If you cannot move to an area with better coverage, turn off your
phone temporarily.
•Do not cover the phone antenna when you are engaged in a call.
Go to
www.sonyericsson.com/support
to learn more about how to maximise the battery
performance.

Tips on using the camera
Rule of thirds
Don’t place your subject in the middle of the frame. By placing it a third of the way in, you
achieve a better result.
Hold it steady
Avoid blurry photos by holding the camera steady. Try to steady your hand by leaning it
against a solid object. You can also use the self-timer to make sure that the phone is steady
when the photo is taken.
26

Get closer
By getting as close as possible to your subject, you can avoid relying on the zoom. Try to
fill the viewfinder with your subject.
Stay within the flash range
Photos taken beyond the maximum flash range will be too dark. The maximum flash range
is about four steps from the subject.
Consider variety
Think about different angles, and move towards the object. Take some vertical photos. Try
different positions.
Use a plain background
A plain background helps highlight your subject.
Keep your lens clean
Mobile phones are used in all kinds of weather and places, and carried in pockets and bags.
This results in the camera lens becoming dirty and covered with fingerprints. Use a soft
cloth to clean the lens.
