Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use
Please read this information before using your mobile
phone.
Recommendations
• Always check the volume settings before putting the
product to your ear. Loud ring signals could damage
your hearing.
• 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 or in hospitals
without requesting permission.
• Do not use your product in an area where the use of mobile
phones is forbidden. For example, in or around aircraft, or in areas
posted “turn off two-way radio”.
• Do not use your product in an area where a potentially
explosive atmosphere exists, for example, at a gas
station, oil depot or chemical plant.
• Do not place your 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.
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).
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) and IEEE (The Institute of Electrical and Electronics
Engineers Inc.), through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific
studies. These guidelines establish permitted levels of radio wave
exposure for the general population. 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 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.
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 mobile phones, all Sony Ericsson
mobile phone models are designed to meet radio frequency exposure
guidelines.
For body worn operation, this phone has been tested and meets RF
exposure guidelines when used with an accessory that contains no
metal and that positions the handset a minimum of (15mm) from the
body. Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance with RF
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 with more information on
radio frequency exposure and SAR, on: www.sonyericsson.com/cn.
Driving
Please check if local laws and regulations of your country/region
restrict the use of mobile phones while driving or require drivers to
use handsfree solutions. We recommend that you use only 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.
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.
Disposal of Old Electrical &
Electronic Equipment
This symbol on the product or on its packaging indicates
that this product shall not be treated as household
waste. Instead it shall be handed over to the applicable
collection point for the recycling of electrical and electronic
equipment. By ensuring this product is disposed of correctly, you w ill
help prevent potential negative consequences for the environment
and human health, which could otherwise be caused by inappropriate
waste handling of this product. The recycling of materials will help to
conserve natural resources. For more detailed information about
recycling of this product, please contact your local city office, your
household waste disposal service or the shop where you purchased
the product.
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.
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. Under normal conditions the stand-by time for this
battery is 175 to 300 hours.
• Warning! May explode if disposed of in fire.
• Use only 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.
• 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.
• Do not allow the battery to be put into the mouth.
Battery electrolytes may be toxic if swallowed.
Disposing of the battery
The battery should never be placed in municipal waste.
Please check local regulations for disposal of batteries.
Limited Warranty
Sony Ericsson Mobile Communications AB, S-221 88 Lund, Sweden,
(Sony Ericsson), provides this Limited Warranty for your mobile
phone and original accessory delivered with your mobile phone
(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/cn to get further information.
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 authorised 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 or 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 The warranty is valid only if the original proof of purchase issued to
the original purchaser by an, for this Product, Sony Ericsson
authorised 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 repaired or
replaced Product shall be warranted for the remaining time of the
original warranty period or for thirty (30) 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 hundreds of times.
However, it will eventually wear out – this is not a defect. 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 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 defecti ve 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 non-Sony Ericsson authorised 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 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/regions/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.
* In some countries/regions additional information is requested. If so,
this is clearly shown on the valid proof of purchase.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference,
and (2) This device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
