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 the vehicle manufacturer's representative to be
sure that the phone or Bluetooth handsfree will not
affect the electronic systems in the 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”.

This is an Internet version of this publication. © Print only for private use.

Important information 71

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
communication. 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 the 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 the 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 measurements.

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 the
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 the phone or other computers.
Malware or harmful applications can include viruses,
worms, spyware, and other unwanted programs.
While the device does employ security measures to
resist such efforts, Sony Ericsson does not warrant
or represent that the device will be impervious to the
introduction of malware. You can however reduce

72 Important information

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 the 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, 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 the
Sony Ericsson Special Needs Center on
877 878 1996 (TTY) or 877 207 2056 (voice), or go
to www.sonyericsson-snc.com.

Disposal of old electrical
and electronic equipment

Electronic equipment and batteries
should not be included as
household waste but should be left at an appropriate
collection point for recycling. This helps prevent
potential negative consequences for the
environment and human health. Check local
regulations by contacting your local city office, your
household waste disposal service, the shop where
you purchased the product or calling a
Sony Ericsson call center. Do not attempt to remove
internal batteries. Internal batteries shall be removed
only by a waste treatment facility or trained service
professional.

Disposing of the battery

Check local regulations or call a
Sony Ericsson call center for
information. Never use municipal
waste.

Memory card

If the product comes complete with a removable
memory card, it is generally compatible with the
handset purchased but may not be compatible with
other devices or the capabilities of their memory
cards. Check other devices for compatibility before
purchase or use. If the product is equipped with a
memory card reader, check memory card
compatibility before purchase or use.

Memory cards are generally formatted prior to
shipping. To reformat the memory card, use a
compatible device. Do not use the standard
operating system format when formatting the
memory card on a PC. For details, refer to the
operating instructions of the device or contact
customer support.

Warning!

If the device requires an adapter for insertion into the
handset or another device, do not insert the card
directly without the required adapter.

Precautions on memory card use

•

Do not expose the memory card to moisture.

•

Do not touch terminal connections with your
hand or any metal object.

•

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/region* where you
purchased the Product, will, at their option, either
repair or replace the Product in accordance with the
terms and conditions stipulated herein.

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 technical
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 wear and tear, 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 talk­time or standby time is noticeably shorter, it is time
to replace the 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 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.

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 WARRANTY. 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.

*Geographical scope of the warranty

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
the country in which you require servicing, provided
