Warning! Keep out of the reach of
children. Do not allow children to
play with phones or accessories.
They could hurt themselves or others.
Products may contain small parts that could
become detached and create a choking hazard.
Power supply (Charger)
Connect the charger to power sources as marked
on the product. Do not use outdoors or in damp
areas. Do not alter or subject the cord to damage
or stress. Unplug the unit before cleaning it. Never
alter the plug. If it does not fit in to the outlet, have
a proper outlet installed by an electrician. When
power supply is connected there is a small
drain of power. To avoid this small energy waste,
disconnect the power supply when the product is
fully charged. Use of charging devices that are not
Sony Ericsson branded may impose increased
safety risks.
Battery
New or idle batteries can have short-term reduced
capacity. Fully charge the battery before initial use.
Use for intended purpose only. Charge the battery in
temperatures between +41°F (+5°C) and +113°F
(+45°C). Do not put the battery into your mouth.
Do not let the battery contacts touch another
metal object. Turn off the product before removing
the battery. Performance depends on temperatures,
signal strength, usage patterns, features selected
and voice or data transmissions. Only Sony Ericsson
service partners should remove or replace built-in
batteries. Use of batteries that are not Sony Ericsson
branded may pose increased safety risks. Replace
the battery only with another Sony Ericsson battery
that has been qualified with the product per the
standard IEEE-1725. Use of an unqualified battery
may present a risk of fire, explosion, leakage or other
hazard.
Personal medical devices
Phones may affect implanted medical equipment.
Reduce risk of interference by keeping a minimum
distance of 6 inches (15 cm) between the phone and
the device. Use the phone at your right ear. Do not
carry the phone in your breast pocket. Turn off the
phone if you suspect interference. For all medical
devices, consult a physician and the manufacturer.
Driving
Some vehicle manufacturers forbid the use of
phones in their vehicles unless a handsfree kit with
an external antenna supports the installation. Check
with your vehicle manufacturer's representative to
be sure that your phone or Bluetooth handsfree will
not affect the electronic systems in your vehicle. Full
attention should be given to driving at all times and
local laws and regulations restricting the use of
wireless devices while driving must be observed.
GPS/Location based functions
Some products provide GPS/Location based
functions. Location determining functionality is
provided “As is” and “With all faults”. Sony Ericsson
does not make any representation or warranty as to
the accuracy of such location information.
Use of location-based information by the device
may not be uninterrupted or error free and may
additionally be dependent on network service
availability. Please note that functionality may be
reduced or prevented in certain environments such
as building interiors or areas adjacent to buildings.
Caution: Do not use GPS functionality in a manner
which causes distraction from driving.
Emergency calls
Calls cannot be guaranteed under all conditions.
Never rely solely upon phones for essential
communications. Calls may not be possible in all
areas, on all networks, or when certain network
services and/or phone features are used.
Use of antenna devices not marketed by
Sony Ericsson could damage your phone, reduce
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 safety 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 measurem ents.
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) is used to measure
radio frequency energy absorbed by the body when
using a 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 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 phone from
known, reliable sources.
Accessories
Use only Sony Ericsson branded original
accessories 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. Third-party
accessories and parts may pose a risk to your
health or safety or decrease performance.
Accessible Solutions/Special Needs
In the US, compatible Sony Ericsson phones may
offer compatibility with TTY terminals (with use of
necessary accessory). For more information call t he
Sony Ericsson Special Needs Center on 877 878
1996 (TTY) or 877 207 2056 (voice), or go to

Conditions
1 This Lim ited Warranty is valid only if the original
proof of purchase for this Product issued by a
Sony Ericsson authorized deal er specifying the date
of purchase and serial number**, is presented wit h 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

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
discharged 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
tiny bright or dark dots on the display. These are
called defective pixels and occur when individual
dots have malfunctioned and can not be adjusted.
Two defective pixels are deemed acceptable.
Minor variations in camera image appearance may
occur between phones. This is nothing 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 authorized 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.
7 Tampering with any of the seals on the Product will
void the warranty.
8 THERE ARE NO EXPRESS WARRANTIES,
WHETHER WRITTEN OR ORAL, OTHER THAN
THIS PRINTED LIMITED WARRANTY. ALL
IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING WITHOUT
LIMITATION THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A
PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ARE LIMITED TO
THE DURATION OF THIS LIMITED WARRAN TY.
IN NO EVENT SHALL SONY ERICSSON OR ITS
LICENSORS BE LIABLE FOR INCIDENTAL OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY NATURE
WHATSOEVER, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED
TO LOST PROFITS OR COMMERCIAL LOSS; TO
THE FULL EXTENT THOSE DAMAGES CAN BE
DISCLAIMED BY LAW.
Some countries/states do not allow the exclusion
or limitation of incidental or consequential
damages, or limitation of the duration of implied
warranties, so the preceding limitations or
exclusions may not apply to you.
The warranty provided does not affect the
consumer's statutory rights under applicable
legislation in force, nor the consumer’s rights
against the dealer arising from their
sales/purchase contract.
