300 hours. Turn off your mobile pho ne before remov ing the battery. Do not put the battery into your mouth. Battery electrolytes may be toxic if swallowed. Do not let the metal contacts on the ba ttery touch ano ther metal objec t. Doing this could short-circuit and damage the battery. Use the battery for the intended pur pose only.

Personal medical devices

Mobile phones may affect the operation of pacemakers and other implanted equipment. Please avoid placing the mobile phone over the pacemaker, e. g. in your breast p ocket. When us ing the mobile phone, use it at the ear on the opposite side of the body to the pacemaker. If a minimum dist ance of 15 cm (6 in ches) is kept be tween the mob ile 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. C ontact your cardiolog ist for more informati on. For other medical devices, please consult your physician and the manufacturer of the device.

Driving

Please check if loca l laws and regulati ons restrict the us e of mobile phones while driv ing or require drivers to us e handsfree solu tions. We recommend that you use only Sony Ericsson handsfree solutions intended for use with your produ ct. 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 has been installed. Always pay full attention to driving and pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving conditio ns so require.

Emergency calls

Mobile phones operate using radio signals, which cannot guarantee connection in all co nditions. You should therefore never rely solely upon any mobile phone for essential commu nications (e.g. med ical emergencies) .

Emergency cal ls may not be poss ible in all areas, on all cellular netw orks, or when certain network services and/or mobile phone features are in use. Check with your lo cal service provide r.

Antenna

This phone contains a built-in antenna. Use of antenna devices not marketed by Sony Ericsson specifically for this model could damage your mobile phone, reduce performance, and produce SAR levels above the established limit s (see below).

Efficient use

Hold your mobile phone as you would any other phone. Do not cover the top of the phone when it is in use, as this affects call quality and may cause the phone to operate at a higher power level than needed, thus shortening ta lk and stan dby times.

Radio frequency (RF) exposure and Specific Absorption Rate (SAR)

Your mobile phone is a low-power rad io transmitter and re ceiver. When it is turned on, it emits low levels of radio frequen cy energy (also known as radio waves or radio frequency fields). Governments aro und the world have adopted comprehen sive international safety guidelines, d eveloped by scientif ic organizations, e.g. ICNIRP (International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection) and IEEE (The Institute of Electrical and Elec tronics Engineers Inc.), through periodic and thorough evaluation of scien tific studies. These guideline s establish permitted levels of radio wave exposu re for the general popu lation. The levels include a safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of ag e and health, and to account for any v ariations in measurements. Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) is the unit of measurement for the amount of radio frequ ency energy abs orbed by the bo dy when using a mobile phone. The SAR value is determined at the highest certified power level in laboratory condit ions, but the actual SAR level of the mobile phone while it is operating can be well below this value . This is because the m obile phone is designed to use the minimum power required to reach the network.

Variations in SAR be low the radio freque ncy exposure guidel ines do not mean that ther e are variation s in safety. While there may be di fferences in SAR levels among mobile phones, all Sony Ericsso n mobile phone models are designed to meet radio freq uency expos ure guidelines . For phones sold in the U S, before a phone mo del is available for sal e to the public, it must be tested and certified by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) that it does not exceed the limit established by the government- adopted req uirement for safe exposure . The tests are performed in positions and locations (that is, at the ear and worn on the body) as required by the FCC for each model. For body-worn operation, this phone has been tested and meets FCC RF exposure guidelines when the handset is positioned a minimum of 15 mm from the body without any metal parts in the vicinity of the phone or when used with the original Sony Ericsson access ory intended for this phone and worn on the body. Use of other accessorie s may not ensure compliance w ith FCC RF exposu re guidelines. A separate leaflet wi th SAR informati on about this mob ile phone model is included with the material accompanying this mobile phone. This information can als o be found, togethe r with more informa tion on radio frequency exposure and SAR, on:

Accessible Solutions/Special Needs

For phones sold in the US, you can use your TTY terminal with your Sony Ericsson mobile ph one (with the neces sary accessory).

Conditions

1 This Limited Warrant y is valid only if the origin al 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 se rvice if this informa tion has been rem oved or changed afte r the original pur chase of the Pro duct from th e dealer.

2 If Sony Ericsson repa irs or replaces the Pro duct, the repa ir for the

defect concerned, or the replaced Product shall be warranted for the remaining time of th e original warranty p eriod or for thirty (30) d ays from the date of repair, whichever is longer. Repair or replacement may involve the us e of functionally equ ivalent reconditi oned units. Replaced parts or components will become the property of Sony Ericsson.

3 This warranty do es not cover any fa ilure of the Prod uct due to norm al

Nor does this warranty cover any failure of the Product due to accident, software or hardware modification or adjustment, acts of God or damage result ing from liquid.

A rechargeabl e battery can be ch arged and di scharged more th an a hundred times. Ho wever, it will eventually wear out - this is not a defect and corresponds to normal wear an d 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 di splay brightness a nd colour may occur b etween 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 responsib le for the operation, av ailability, coverag e, 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 authorised person.
