Digital User guide

This Startup guide is aimed at getting you through the first hour of using your new phone.

As part of our Greenheart™ initiatives, we have placed a full-length User guide in the phone and on the web. By keeping the full User guide in digital format, we have cut down substantially on the amount of paper we print. You can find more information on how to access the in-phone User guide and other support at the end of this Startup guide.

Android™ – what and why?

An Android™ phone is based on an open source platform, and is pre-loaded with Google™ services. To make the best out of any provided Google™ services, you should create a Google™ account and sign in to it when you first start your phone. With the account, you can extend the functionality of the phone by downloading applications and games from a constantly growing collection at Android Market™. You need to have Internet access for many of the features in Android.

Accounts and services

Use online services in your phone. Sign in with your existing account or sign up and create an account.

Google™ account

Use Gmail™ to send emails, Google Talk™ to chat with friends, and Android Market™ to download applications.

Sony Ericsson account

Important Information

United States & Canada

THIS PHONE MODEL HAS BEEN CERTIFIED IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE GOVERNMENT’S REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.

The MK16i Series mobile phones have been designed to comply with applicable safety requirements for exposure to radio waves. Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed to not exceed the limits* of exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by governmental authorities. These limits establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The guidelines are based on standards that were developed by international scientific organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The standards include a safety margin designed to assure the safety of all individuals, regardless of age and health.

The radio wave exposure guidelines employ a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR). Tests for SAR are conducted using standardized methods with the phone transmitting at its highest certified power level in all used frequency bands. While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phone models, they are all designed to meet the relevant guidelines for exposure to radio waves. For more information on SAR, please refer to the safe and efficient use chapter in the User Guide.

The highest SAR value as reported to the authorities for this phone model when tested for use by the ear is 0.79 W/kg*, and when worn on the body is 0.57 W/kg* for speech and 1.19 W/kg* for data calls. 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 devices which include “WiFi hotspot” functionality, body-worn SAR measurements for operation of the device operating in WiFi hotspot mode were taken using a separation distance of 10mm.

Use of third-party accessories may result in different SAR levels than those reported.

**Before a phone model is available for sale to the public in the US, it must be tested and certified by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) that it does not exceed the limit established by the government-adopted requirement for safe exposure*. The tests are performed in positions and locations (i.e., by the ear and worn on the body) as required by the FCC for each model. The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this phone model with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones, all mobile phones granted an FCC equipment authorization meet the government requirement for safe exposure. SAR information on this phone model is on file at the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching on FCC

ID PY7A3880110. Additional information on SAR can be found on the Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association (CTIA) website at http://www.phonefacts.net.

* In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phones used by the public is 1.6 watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged over one gram of tissue. The standard incorporates a margin of safety to give additional protection for the public and to account for any variations in measurements.

**This paragraph is only applicable to authorities and customers in the United States.

CE MODÈLE DE TÉLÉPHONE A ÉTÉ CERTIFIÉ CONFORME AUX EXIGENCES GOUVERNEMENTALES RELATIVES À L'EXPOSITION AUX ONDES RADIOÉLECTRIQUES.

Les téléphones mobiles de la MK16i ont été conçus pour répondre aux normes de sécurité en vigueur en matière d'exposition aux ondes radioélectriques. Votre téléphone sans fil est un émetteur et un récepteur radio. Il est conçu de manière à ne pas dépasser les limites* d'exposition à l'énergie des fréquences radio (RF) établies par les autorités gouvernementales. Ces limites fixent les niveaux maximaux d'énergie RF auxquels peut être soumis le grand public. Ces lignes directrices sont basées sur des normes qui ont été élaborées par des organisations scientifiques internationales par le biais d'évaluations périodiques et approfondies des études scientifiques. Ces normes prévoient une marge de sécurité visant à assurer la protection de tous les individus, peu importe leur âge et leur état de santé.

Les lignes directrices relatives à l'exposition aux ondes radioélectriques utilisent une unité de mesure appelée « Taux d'absorption spécifique » (TAS). Les tests de TAS sont effectués selon des méthodes standardisées dans lesquelles le téléphone émet dans toutes les bandes de fréquences utilisées, à la plus forte puissance pour laquelle il a été homologué. Bien que le TAS puisse être différent d'un modèle de téléphone à un autre, tous les appareils sont conçus pour respecter les lignes directrices relatives aux ondes radioélectriques. Pour en savoir plus sur le TAS, reportez-vous au chapitre sur l'utilisation efficace et sans danger du guide de l'utilisateur.

Le TAS le plus élevé relevé par les autorités pour ce modèle de téléphone est de 0.79 W/kg* lorsqu'il est testé en utilisation près de l'oreille, et de 0.57 W/kg* pour les appels vocaux et de

1.19 W/kg* pour les transmissions de données lorsqu'il est porté sur le corps. En mode d’utilisation porté sur le corps, le téléphone a été testé lorsqu’il est à au moins 15 mm du corps et à l’écart de toute pièce en métal, ou lorsqu’il est utilisé de façon adéquate
