SIM card and Battery
SIM card and Battery information.
SIM card
Your SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card
contains a computer chip with your service
details and phone numbers. Like a credit card, it
should be kept securely and handled carefully.
Do not bend, scratch or expose to moisture.
Avoid static electricity. To avoid corrupting the
memory of your SIM card, always switch off
your phone before removing or inserting your
SIM card.
When you insert a new SIM card, y our phone
prompts you to select whether or not you wish to
copy the SI M contents to the phone memory
% 35 Phonebook.

Inserting the SIM card

Getting started
Battery
Use only the Sony Ericsson-specified Z600
battery and charger. When supplied, your
battery will not be fully charged.
Both the status bar within the battery icon
in the display and the charging indicator (red)
display the charging status.
Charging (5 °C-45 °C) is complete when
appears.
Full charging can take up to approximately
3 hours, but may vary depending on certain
conditions (for example, if your phone is
switched on or if temperature is outside the
operating range).
When your battery is completely empty, it can
take some time until the battery icon appears
during charging.
As an energy-saving measure disconnect the
charger from both the mains socket and the
phone after charging.
On exposure to high temperatures your battery
may expand slightly. This has no influence on
your safety/health and will reduce to its original
size once re-exposed to a lower temperature.
Inserting the Battery
1 Slide the battery cover down to remove.
2 Align the claws on the battery terminal with
those of the phone and press battery down.
3 Align the claws at the side of the cover with
slots of the phone and slide back into place
until the lock clicks.
