Please read the Important information leaflet before you use your mobile phone.
Some of the services and features described in this User guide are not supported in all
countries/regions or by all networks and/or service providers in all areas. Without limitation,
this applies to the GSM International Emergency Number 112. Please contact your network
operator or service provider to determine availability of any specific service or feature and

In order for your phone to be water resistant, the covers for the micro USB port and
the headset connector must be firmly closed. Also, make sure that the back cover is
attached correctly.
Avoid exposing your phone to environments with excessive dust or moisture. Normal
wear and tear along with damage to your device can reduce its ability to resist dust
or moisture. Do not use your phone in the following conditions:
Ocean waterSwimming poolDiving
Hot waterSand/mudOther liquid
chemicals
Never submerge the mobile phone, the micro USB port or the headset connector in
water, expose the mobile phone to any liquid chemicals, or expose your mobile
phone to moist environments with extreme high or low temperatures. If water or liquid
gets on the micro USB port and the headset connector, wipe it off with a dry cloth.
The water resistance of the micro USB port and the headset connector is not
guaranteed in all environments or conditions.
All compatible accessories including batteries, chargers, handsfree devices, micro
USB cables, microSD™ cards, and straps are not dust and water resistant on their
own.
Your warranty does not cover damage or defects caused by abuse or improper use
of your device. If you have any further questions about the use of your product, get
help from our Customer support service.
IP (Ingress Protection) rating
Your phone has an IP rating, which means it has undergone certified tests to
measure its resistance levels to both dust and water. The first digit in the two-digit IP
rating indicates the level of protection against solid objects, including dust. The
second digit indicates how resistant the phone is to water. The higher the numbers,
the higher the respective protection.
The IP rating of your phone is 67. This IP67 rating means that your phone is both dust
tight and protected against the effects of immersion. So you can use the phone in
extreme weather conditions, for example, when it's snowing or raining, or when
humidity levels are high. You can also use the phone in dusty or sandy environments,
and when your fingers are wet. See the table for more details.

Your Xperia smartphone from Sony runs on the Android platform. Android phones
can perform many of the same functions as a computer and you can customise them
to your own needs. For example, you can add and delete applications, or enhance
existing applications to improve functionality. On Google Play™ you can download a
range of applications and games from a constantly growing collection. You can also
integrate applications on your Android™ phone with other applications and with
online services that you use. For example, you can back up your phone contacts,
access your different email accounts and calendars from one place, keep track of
your appointments, and engage in social networking.
Android™ phones are constantly evolving. When a new software version is available
and your phone supports this new software, you can update your phone to get new
features and the latest improvements.
Your Android™ phone is pre-loaded with Google™ services. To get the most out of the
provided Google™ services, you should have a Google™ account and sign in to it when you
first start your phone. You also need to have Internet access to use many of the features in
Android™.
New software releases may not be compatible with all phones.

Battery
Your phone has an embedded battery.
Charging the battery
Charge your phone for at least 30 minutes before you turn on the phone for the first
time. When you connect the phone charger cable to a power source, such as a USB
port or a phone charger, it may take a few minutes before the battery icon appears
on the screen. You can still use your phone while it is charging. Charging the phone
over a long period of time, for example, overnight, does not damage the battery or
the phone.
The battery will start to discharge a little after it is fully charged and then charges again after a
certain time when the phone charger is connected. This is to extend battery life and may result
in the charge status showing a level below 100 percent.
Plug one end of the USB cable into the charger (or into the USB port of a
computer).
3
Plug the other end of the cable into the micro USB port on your phone, with
the USB symbol facing down. The battery status LED lights up when charging
starts.
4
When the battery status LED is green, the phone is fully charged. Disconnect
the USB cable from your phone by pulling it straight outwards. Make sure not
to bend the connector when removing the cable from the phone.
If the battery is completely discharged, it may take a few minutes before the LED lights up
after you connect the phone charger cable to a power source.

Improving battery performance
The following tips can help you improve battery performance:
•
Charge your phone often. This will not affect the lifetime of the battery.
•
Downloading data from the Internet is power consuming. When you're not using the
Internet, you can save power by disabling all data connections over mobile networks.
This setting does not prevent your phone from transmitting data over other wireless
networks.
•
Turn off GPS, Bluetooth™ and Wi-Fi® when you don't need these features. You can
turn them on and off more easily by adding the Quick settings widget to your Home
screen. You do not need to turn off 3G.
•
Use the Power Saver feature to reduce battery consumption. You can select the
power saving mode that best suits the way you use your phone. You can also
customise the settings of each power saving mode.
•
Set your synchronisation applications (used to synchronise your email, calendar and
contacts) to synchronise manually. You can also synchronise automatically, but
increase the synchronisation intervals.
•
Check the battery usage menu in the phone to see which applications use the most
power. Your battery consumes more power when you use video and music streaming
applications, such as YouTube™. Some Android Market™ applications also consume
more power.
•
Close and exit applications that you are not using.
•
Lower the screen display brightness level.
•
Turn off your phone or activate the Airplane mode setting if you are in an area with
no network coverage. Otherwise, your phone repeatedly scans for available
networks, and this consumes power.
•
Use a Sony original handsfree device to listen to music. Handsfree devices demand
less battery power than the phone's loudspeakers.
•
Keep your phone in standby whenever possible. Standby time refers to the time
during which the phone is connected to the network and is not being used.
•
