When you register as a subscriber with a network
operator, you get a SIM (Subscriber Identity
Module) card. The SIM card contains a computer
chip that keeps track of your phone number, the
services included in your subscription, and names
and numbers in your contacts, among other things.
If you have been using a SIM card in another phone,
make sure that your information is saved to the
SIM card before you remove it from the other phone.
For example, contacts may have been saved in the
phone memory.
Getting started
SIM card and battery
information
Always turn off the phone and detach the charger
before you insert or remove a SIM card.
It may take up to 30 minutes before the battery icon
appears when charging.
You may need a PIN (Personal Identification
Number) to activate the services in your phone.
The PIN is associated with your SIM card, and not
with the phone. Your PIN is provided by your
network operator. When you enter your PIN, each
digit appears as *, unless your PIN starts with the
same digits as an emergency number, for example
112. This is so that you can see and call an
emergency number without entering a PIN.
If you make a mistake while entering your PIN,
delete the number by pressing
If you enter the wrong PIN three times in a row, the
SIM card is blocked and the message PIN blocked
appears. To unblock it, you need to enter your PUK

On www.SonyEricsson.com there is a support
section where help and tips are only a few clicks
away. Here you find the latest computer software
updates and tips on how to use your product more
efficiently.
Guidelines for Safe
and Efficient Use
Please read this information before using
your mobile phone.
Recommendations
• Always treat your product with care
and keep it in a clean and dust-free place.
• Do not expose your product to liquid or moisture
or
humidity.
• Do not expose your product to extreme
high or low temperatures.
• Do not expose your product to open
flames or lit tobacco products.
• Do not drop, throw or try to bend your
product.
• Do not paint your product.
• Do not use your product near medical equipment
without requesting permission.
• Do not use your product when in, or around
aircraft, or areas posted “turn off two-way radio”.
• Do not use your product in an area where
a
potentially explosive atmosphere exists.
• Do not place your product or install wireless
equipment in the area above your car’s air bag.
• Do not attempt to disassemble your
product. Only Sony Ericsson authorised
personnel should perform service.
Antenna
Only use an antenna that has been specifically
designed by Sony Ericsson for your mobile phone.
Use of unauthorised or modified antennas could
damage your mobile phone and may violate
regulations, causing loss of performance and SAR
levels above the recommended limits (see below).
Hold your mobile phone as you would any other
phone. Do not cover the top of the phone when
in
use, as this affects call quality and may cause
phone to operate at a higher power level than
the
needed, thus shortening talk and standby times.
Radio frequency (RF) exposure
SAR
and
Your mobile phone is a low-power radio transmitter
and receiver. When it is turned on, it emits low levels
of radio frequency energy (also known as radio
waves or radio frequency fields).
Governments around the world have adopted
comprehensive international safety guidelines,
developed by scientific organizations, e.g. ICNIRP
(International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation
Protection) and IEEE (The Institute of Electrical and
Electronics Engineers Inc.) through periodic and
thorough evaluation of scientific studies. These
guidelines establish permitted levels of radio wave
exposure for the general population. The levels
include a safety margin designed to assure the
of all persons, regardless of age and health,
safety
to account for any variations in measurements.
and
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) is the unit of
measurement for the amount of 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 the
actual SAR level of the mobile phone while operating
can be well below this value.
This is because the mobile phone is designed to use
the minimum power required to reach the network.
Variations in SAR below the radio frequency exposure
guidelines do not mean that there are variations in
safety. While there may be differences in SAR levels
among mobile phones, all Sony Ericsson mobile
phone models are designed to meet radio frequency
exposure guidelines.
A separate leaflet with SAR information for this
mobile phone model is included with the material
that
comes with this mobile phone. This information
can also be found, together with more information
radio frequency exposure and SAR,
on
on:
www.SonyEricsson.com.
Driving
Please check if local laws and regulations restrict the
use of mobile phones while driving or require drivers
to use handsfree solutions. We recommend that you
use only Sony Ericsson handsfree solutions intended
for use with your product. Please note that because
of possible interference to electronic equipment,
some vehicle manufacturers forbid the use of mobile
phones in their vehicles unless a handsfree kit with
an external antenna supports the installation.

Additional information
Always give full attention to driving and pull off the
road and park before making or answering a call
if
driving conditions so require.
Personal medical devices
Mobile phones may affect the operation of cardiac
pacemakers and other implanted equipment. Please
avoid placing the mobile phone over the pacemaker,
e.g. in your breast pocket. When using the mobile
phone, place it at the ear opposite the pacemaker.
a minimum distance of 15 cm (6 inches) is kept
If
between the mobile phone and the pacemaker, the
risk of interference is limited. If you have any reason
to suspect that interference is taking place,
immediately turn off your mobile phone.

it is time to replace your battery. Sony Ericsson
recommends that you use only batteries and
chargers approved by Sony Ericsson.

may occur between phones. There may be tiny
bright or dark dots on the display. These are called
defective pixels and occur when individual dots
