with the product per the standard IEEE-1725. Use of an unqualiﬁed battery may present a risk of ﬁre, explosion, leakage or other hazard.

Pers onal m edical device s

Mobile devices / devices with radio transmitters may aect implanted medical equipment. Reduce risk of interference by keeping a minimum distance of 15 cm(6 inches) between the Sony product and the medical device. Use the Sony device at your right ear, when applicable. Do not carry the device in your breast pocket. Turn o the device if you suspect interference. For use in proximity to personal medical devices, please consult a physician and the device manufacturer.

Driv ing

In some cases, vehicle manufacturers may forbid the use of mobile devices in their vehicles, unless a handsfree kit with an external antenna supports the installation. Check with the vehicle manufacturer's representative to be sure that a mobile device or Bluetooth handsfree will not aect the electronic systems in the 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/ Locati on base d func tions

Some products provide GPS/Location based functions. Location determining functionality is provided “As is” and “With all faults”. Sony 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.

Emer gency calls

Calls cannot be guaranteed under all conditions. Never rely solely upon Sony Mobile devices for essential communication. Calls may not be possible in all areas, on all networks, or when certain network services and/or mobile device features are used. Please note that some Sony devices are not capable of supporting voice calls, including emergency calls.

Ante nna

Use of antenna devices not marketed by Sony could damage the mobile device, reduce performance, and produce Speciﬁc Absorption Rate (SAR) levels above the established limits. Do not cover the antenna with your hand as this aects call quality, power levels, and can shorten talk and standby times.

Radi o Freq uency ( RF) ex posure and Sp ecific Absorp tion Ra te (SA R)

When the mobile device or Bluetooth handsfree functionality 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.

This is an internet version of this publication. © Print only for private use.

Speciﬁc Absorption Rate (SAR) is used to measure radio frequency energy absorbed by the body when using a mobile device. The SAR value is determined at the highest certiﬁed power level in laboratory conditions, but because the device 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 dierence in safety based on dierence 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 device is placed at the ear and when worn on the body. For body-worn operation, the device has been tested when positioned a minimum of 15 mm from the body without any metal parts in the vicinity of the device or when properly used with an appropriate Sony accessory and worn on the body. When operating with “Hotspot” functionality engaged, a separation distance of 10 mm was used.

For more information about SAR and radio frequency exposure, go to:

Flig ht mod e

Bluetooth and Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) functionality, if available in the 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.

Malw are

Malware (short for malicious software) is software that can harm your device. Malware or harmful applications can include viruses, worms, spyware, and other unwanted programs. While the device does employ security measures to resist such eorts, Sony does not warrant or represent that the device will be impervious to the 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 the mobile device from known, reliable sources.

Acce ssorie s
