calls” on page 24.
No network
There is no network within range or the received signal
is too weak. You have to move to get a signal that is
strong enough.

You have entered your PIN or PIN2 incorrectly.
• Enter the correct PIN or PIN2, and press
YES. See

Codes do not match
When you want to change a security code (for
example, your PIN) you have to confirm the new
code by entering it again. The two codes that you
have entered do not match. See “SIM card lock” on
page 77.

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), through periodic and thorough evaluation
of scientific studies. These guidelines establish
permitted levels of radio wave exposure for the
general population. All Sony Ericsson mobile phone
models are designed to operate within these stringent
levels. 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.
Therefore, the closer y ou are to a base station, the
more likely it is that the actual SAR level will decrease.
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 various mobile phones, all Sony
Ericsson mobile phone models are designed to meet
radio frequency 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/.
DRIVING
Please check if local laws and regulations restrict the
use of mobile phones while driving or require drivers
82Additional information
to use handsfree solutions. We recommend that you
use only Ericsson or 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. I f you have any reason to
suspect that interference is taking place, immediately
turn off your mobile phone. Contact your cardiologist
for more information.
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.
DISPOSING OF THE PRODUCT
Your mobile phone should not be placed
in municipal waste. Please check local
regulations for disposal of electronic
products.
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.
EMERGENCY CALLS
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.
• Warning! May explode if disposed of in fire.
• Use only Ericsson or Sony Ericsson branded original
batteries and chargers intended for use with y our
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.
• Keep out of children’s reach.
• Use the battery for the intended
purpose only.
• Do not allow the battery to be put into the mouth.
Battery electroly tes may be toxic if swallowed.
