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 safet y 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.
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 acc essories
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. Thirdparty accessories and parts may pose a risk to your
health or safety or decrease performance.

compatibility before purchase or use.
The memory card is 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.
Warning!
If your device requires an adapter for in sertion into
the handset or another device, do not insert the
card directly without the required adapter.
Precautions on Memory Card Use

77Important information
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 in formation m ay be lost when
your Sony Ericsson Product is repaired or replaced.
At present Sony Ericsson may be prevented by
applicable law, other regulations 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 Er icsson Pro duct
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.
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
discharg ed 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 color
may occur between the phones. There may be
small, bright or dark dots on the display. These are
called defective pixels and occur when individual
dots have malfunctioned and cannot be adjusted.
Two defective pixels are deemed acceptable.
Minor variations in camera image appearance may
occur between phones. This is not 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 nonSony 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.
