Recommendations for safe use of
product (mobile phone, battery,
charger and other accessories)
• Always treat your product with care and keep it in
a clean and dust-free place.
• Warning! May explode if disposed of in fire.
• Do not expose your product to liquid or moisture
wireless equipment in the area above
an air bag in your car.
• Caution: Cracked or broken displays may create
sharp edges or splinters that could be harmful up on

CHILDREN
KEEP OUT OF CHILDREN´S REACH.
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 BECOME DETACHED AND CREATE
A CHOKING HAZARD.
Power supply (Charger)
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 does
not fit into the outlet, have a proper outlet installed
by a qualified electrician.
Use only Sony Ericsson branded original chargers
intended for use with your mobile phone. Other
chargers may not be designed to the same safety
and performance standards.
Battery
We recommend that you fully charge the battery
before you use your mobile phone for the first time.
A new battery or one that has not been used for
a long time could have reduced capacity the fir st few
times it is used. The battery should only be charged
in temperatures between +5°C (+41°F) and +45°C
(+113°F).
Use only Sony Ericsson branded original batteries
intended for use with your mobile phone. Using
other batteries and chargers could be dangerous.
Talk and standby times depend on several different
conditions such as signal strength, operating
temperature, application usage patterns, features
selected and voice or data transmissions when the
mobile phone is being used.
Turn off your mobile phone before removing 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 battery touch
another metal object. Doing this could short-circuit
and damage the battery. Use the battery for the
intended purpose 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 pocket. When using the mobile
phone, use it at the ear on the opposite side of the
body to 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 your
physician and the manufacturer of the device.
Please check if local laws and regulations 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 has been installed.
Always pay full attention to driving and pull off the
road and park before making or answering a call
if driving conditions so require.
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
Mobile phones operate using radio signals, which
cannot guarantee connection in all conditions. You
should therefore never rely solely upon any mobile
phone for essential communications (e.g. medical
emergencies).
Emergency calls may not be possible in all areas,
on all cellular networks, or when certain network
services and/or mobile phone features are in use.
Check with your local service provider.
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 limits (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 talk and standby times.
Radio frequency (RF) exposure and
Specific Absorption Rate (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 it
is 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 phones sold in the US, before a phone model
is available for sale 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 requirement
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
accessory intended for this phone and worn on the
body. Use of other accessories may not ensure
compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines.
A separate leaflet with SAR information about this
mobile phone model is included with the material
accompanying this mobile phone. This information
can also be found, together with more information
on radio frequency exposure and SAR, on:
www.sonyericsson.com/health.
Accessible Solutions/Special Needs
For phones sold in the US, you can use your TTY
terminal with your Sony Ericsson mobile phone
(with the necessary accessory). For information on
Accessible Solutions for individuals with special
needs call the Sony Ericsson Special Needs Center
on 877 878 1996 (TTY) or 877 207 2056 (voice), or

(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.
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 repaire d 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

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 colour
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 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/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
