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 ex plosive atmosphere exists.
• Do not place y our 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.
• Do not direct the infrared ray at anyone's eye and make sure that it does not disturb any other infrared units.
• To avoid hearing impairment, accept the call before holding your product (or portable handsfree device) to your ear.
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).

Page 78
EFFICIENT USE
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 the phone to operate at a higher power level than needed, thus shortening talk and standby times.
RADIO FREQUENCY (RF) EXPOSURE AND SAR
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), through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. These guidelines establish permitted levels of radio wave exposure for the general population. All Sony Ericsson mobile phone models are designed to operate within these stringent levels. The levels include a safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health, and to account for any variations in measurements.
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
78 Additional information
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. Therefore, the closer y ou are to a base station, the more likely it is that the actual SAR level will decrease.
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 various 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 w ith more information on radio frequency exposure and SAR, 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 Ericsson or 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.
This is the Internet version of the user's guide. © Print only for private use.
Page 79
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. If a minimum distance of 15 cm (6 inches) is kept 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. Contact your cardiologist for more information.
For other medical devices, please consult the
manufacturer of the device.
CHILDREN
DO NOT ALLOW CHILDREN TO PLAY WITH YOUR MOBILE PHONE OR ITS ACCESSORIES. THEY COULD HURT THEMSELVES OR OTHERS, OR COULD ACCIDENTALLY DAMAGE THE MOBILE PHONE OR ACCESSORY. YOUR MOBILE PHONE OR ITS ACCESSORY MAY CONTAIN SMALL PARTS THAT COULD BE DETACHED AND CREATE A CHOKING HAZARD.
DISPOSING OF THE PRODUCT
Your mobile phone should not be placed in municipal waste. Please check local regulations for disposal of electronic products.
POWER SUPPLY
Connect the AC power adapter only to designated power sources as marked on the product. Make sure the cord is positioned so that it will not be subjected to damage or stress. To reduce risk of electric shock, unplug the unit from any power source before attempting to clean it. The AC power adapter must not be used outdoors or in damp areas. Never alter the cord or plug. If the plug will not fit into the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
EMERGENCY CALLS
Mobile phones operate using radio signals, which cannot guarantee connection under all conditions. Therefore you should never rely solely upon any mobile phone for essential communications (e.g. medical emergencies).
Emergency calls may not be possible on all cellular networks or when certain network services and/or mobile phone features are in use. Check with your local service provider.

BATTERY USE AND CARE
We recommend that you fully charge the battery before you use your mobile phone for the first time. The battery can only be charged in temperatures between +5°C (+41°F) and +45°C (+113°F).
A new battery or one that has not been used for a long time could have reduced capacity the first few times it is used.
The talk and standby times depend on the actual transmission conditions when using the mobile phone. If the mobile phone is used near a base station, less power is required and talk and standby times are prolonged.
Warning! May explode if disposed of in fire.
• Use only Ericsson or Sony Ericsson branded original batteries and chargers intended for use with your mobile phone. Other chargers may not charge sufficiently or may produce excessive heat. Using other batteries and chargers could be dangerous.
• Do not expose the battery to liquid.
• Do not let the metal contacts on the battery touch another metal object. This could short-circuit and damage the battery.
• Do not disassemble or modify the battery.
80 Additional information
• Do not expose the battery to extreme temperatures, never above +60°C (+140°F). For maximum battery capacity, use the battery in room temperature.
• Turn off your mobile phone before removing the battery.
• Keep out of children’s reach.
• Use the battery for the intended purpose only.
• Do not allow the battery to be put into the mouth. Battery electrolytes may be toxic if swallowed.
DISPOSING OF THE BATTERY
Please check local regulations for disposal of batteries or call y our local Sony Ericsson Customer Care Center for information.
The battery should never be placed in municipal waste. Use a battery disposal facility if available.
