To charge the battery

It may take up to 30 minutes before the battery icon appears when charging.

1 Connect the charger to the phone. The symbol

on the charger plug must face upwards.

2 It may take up to 30 minutes before the battery

icon appears on the screen.

3 Wait approximately 4 hours or until the battery

icon indicates that the battery is fully charged. If you do not see the battery icon after this time, press a key to activate the screen.

4 Remove the charger by tilting the plug

upwards.

Some functions use more battery power than others and may cause a need for more frequent re-charging. However, talk-time or standby time may become noticeably shorter due to wear and you may have to replace your battery. Only use approved batteries from Sony Ericsson

You may need a PIN (Personal Identity Number) to activate the services in your phone. The PIN is associated with your SIM card, and not with the phone. Your PIN is provided by your network operator. When you enter your PIN, each digit appears as *, unless your PIN starts with the same digits as an emergency number, for example 112. This is so that you can see and call an emergency number without entering a PIN.

If you make a mistake while entering your PIN,

delete the number by pressing

If you enter the wrong PIN three times in a row, the SIM card is blocked and the message PIN blocked appears. To unblock it, you need to enter your PUK (Personal Unblocking Key),

Tips when recording and using voice commands

If your phone cannot detect your voice command, one of the following might have happened:

• You spoke too softly — try speaking louder.

• You held the phone too far away — hold it as you do during a call.

• The voice command was too short — it should be around one second long and more than one syllable.

• You spoke too late or too soon — speak immediately after the tone.

• You did not record the voice command when the handsfree was attached — for voice control with a handsfree kit, record when the handsfree is attached.

• You used another intonation — use the same intonation as in the recorded voice command.

SIM card lock

The SIM card lock protects your subscription, but not your phone itself, from unauthorized use. If you change SIM cards, your phone still works with the new SIM card. Most SIM cards are locked at the time of purchase. If the SIM card lock is on, you have to enter a PIN (Personal Identity Number) every time you turn on your phone. If you enter your PIN incorrectly three times in a row, the SIM card is blocked. This is indicated by the message PIN blocked. To unblock it, you need to enter your PUK (Personal Unblocking Key). Your PIN and PUK are supplied by your network operator. You can edit your PIN and select a new four- to eight-digit PIN.

If the message Codes do not match appears when you edit your PIN, you entered the new PIN incorrectly. If the message you entered your old PIN incorrectly.

Phone lock

The phone lock protects your phone against unauthorized use if it is stolen and the SIM card is exchanged. You can change the phone lock code (0000) to any four- to eight-digit personal code.

Automatic phone lock

If the phone lock is set to automatic, you do not need to enter your phone lock code until a different SIM card is inserted in the phone.

It is important that you remember your new code. If you should forget it, you have to hand in your phone to your local Sony Ericsson retailer.

Antenna

Only use an antenna that has been specifically designed by Sony Ericsson for your mobile phone. Use of unauthorized 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. 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:

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 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.

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 should 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 375-400 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.

Limited Warranty

Sony Ericsson Mobile Communications AB,

88 Lund, Sweden, (Sony Ericsson), provides

S-221 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 Centre (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 cannot 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 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.
