71Important information

Children

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.

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 interf erence. 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.

72 Important information

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.

Antenna

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 soft ware that

Limited Warranty

Sony Ericsson Mobile Communications AB,
Nya Vattentornet, SE-221 88 Lund, Sweden,
(Sony Ericsson) or its local affiliated company,
provides this Limited Warranty for your phone,
original accessory delivered with your phone,
and/or your mobile computing product (hereinafter
referred to as “Product”).

Should your Product need warranty service,
please return it to the dealer from whom it was
purchased, or contact your local Sony Ericsson
Call Center (national rates may apply) or visit
www.sonyericsson.com to get further information.

Our Warranty

Subject to the conditions of this Limited Warranty,
Sony Ericsson warrants this Product to be free
from defects in design, material and workmanship
at the time of its original purchase by a consumer.
This Limited Warranty will last for a period of one
(1) year as from the original date of purchase of the
Product.

What we will do

If, during the warranty period, this Product fails
to operate under normal use and service, due to
defects in design, materials or workmanship,
Sony Ericsson authorized distributors or service
partners, in the country* where you purchased the
Product, will, at their option, either repair or replace
the Product in accordance with the terms and
conditions stipulated herein.

75Important information

Sony Ericsson and its service partners reserve the
right to charge a handling fee if a returned Product
is found not to be under warranty according to the
conditions below.

Please note that some of your personal settings,
downloads and other information may be lost when
your Sony Ericsson Product is repaired or replaced.
At present Sony Ericsson may be prevented by
applicable law, other regulation or techni cal
restrictions from making a backup copy of certain
downloads. Sony Ericsson does not take any
responsibility for any lost information of any kind and
will not reimburse you for any such loss. You should
always make backup copies of all the information
stored on your Sony Ericsson Product such as
downloads, calendar and contacts before handing in
your Sony Ericsson Product for repair or replacement.

Conditions

1 This Limited Warranty is valid only if the original

proof of purchase for this Product issued by
a Sony Ericsson authorized dealer specifying
the date of purchase and serial number**,
is presented with 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 than the normal and customary manner, in
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.

purchase contract.

If you have purchased your Product in a country
member of the European Economic Area (EEA) or
in Switzerland or the Republic of Turkey, and such
Product was intended for sale in the EEA or in
Switzerland or in Turkey, you can have your Product
serviced in any EEA country or in Switzerland or in
Turkey, under the warranty conditions prevailing in

authorized Sony Ericsson distributor. To find out if

your Product is sold in the country you are in, please
call the local Sony Ericsson Call Center. Please
observe that certain services may not be possible
elsewhere than in the country of original purchase, for
