Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use
Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use
Please read this information before using your mobile
phone.
Recommendations
• 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 when in, or around
aircraft, or areas posted “turn off two-way radio”.
• Do not use your product in an area where a
potentially explosive atmosphere exists.
Some menus/features are operator dependent.
N
o
f
t
o
r
c
o
m
• 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 authorized personnel should perform
service.
• If your mobile phone is equipped with infrared,
c
never direct the infrared ray at anyone’s eye and
r
e
m
make sure that it does not disturb any other
infrared units.
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).

Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use
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
2 Some menus/features are operator dependent.

c
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
c
r
level in laboratory conditions, but the actual SAR level of
e
the mobile phone while operating can be well below this
m
value. This is because the mobile phone is designed to
use the minimum power required to reach the network.
Therefore, the closer you 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
mobile phones, all Sony Ericsson mobile phone models
are designed to meet radio frequency exposure
guidelines.
Accessories can significantly affect a mobile phone’s
compliance with the radio frequency exposure guidelines.
For example, the Federal Communication Commission
u
l
a
i
s
e
Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use
in the U.S. requires that some manufacturers’ accessories
shall be tested, and Sony Ericsson has done so with
respect to its products. To avoid causing loss of
performance or radio frequency exposure levels above the
permissible limits it is recommended that you only use
Sony Ericsson or Ericsson original accessories intended
for use with the mobile phone. If you wear the mobile
phone on your body while it is transmitting, and you do
not use a Sony Ericsson or Ericsson original body worn
accessory, please ensure that the mobile phone is
positioned a minimum of 1.5 cm from your body and
that you are not using an accessory that contains any
metal.
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.

Electronic Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF
signals. However, certain electronic equipment may not

be shielded against the RF signals from your mobile
phone, therefore:
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association
recommends that a minimum separation of six (6”)
inches (15 cm) be maintained between a handheld
wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential
interference with the pacemaker. These
recommendations are consistent with the independent
c
r
research by and recommendations of Wireless
e
Te c h no lo gy Re se a rc h.
m
Persons with pacemakers:
• Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than six
inches from their pacemaker when the phone is
turned ON;
• Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket;
• Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to
minimize the potential for interference.
• If you have any reason to suspect that interference
is taking place, turn your phone OFF immediately.

Hearing Aids
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some
hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may
want to consult your service provider or call your local
Sony Ericsson Customer Care Center to discuss
alternatives.
Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical device, consult the
manufacturer of your device to determine if they are
adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your
physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this
information.
Turn your phone OFF in health care facilities when any
regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do so.
Hospitals or health care facilities may be using
equipment that could be sensitive to external RF energy.
Turn your phone OFF in any facility where posted
notices so require.

Driving
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
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
c
their vehicles unless a handsfree kit with an external
r
e
antenna supports the installation.
m
Always give full attention to driving and pull off the road
and park before making or answering a call if driving
conditions so require.
Children
DO NOT ALLOW CHILDREN TO PLAY WITH
YOUR MOBILE PHONE OR ITS ACCESSORIES.
THEY COULD HURT THEMSELVES OR
OTHERS, OR COULD ACCIDENTALLY DAMAGE

Your mobile phone should not be placed in municipal
waste. Please check local regulations for disposal of
electronic products.
Power Supply
o
c
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 ada pter must not be used outdoors or in damp
areas. Never alter the cord or plug. If the plug will not fit

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
m
Charge the battery for 4 hours 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
e
s
u
l
5
Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use
the mobile phone is used near a base station, less power is
required and talk and standby times are prolonged.
Use only Ericsson or 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 extreme temperatures,
never above +60°C (+140°F). For maximum
battery capacity, use the battery in room
temperature.
•Warning! May explode if disposed of in fire.
• Do not expose the battery to liquid.
• Keep out of children’s reach.
• Turn off your mobile phone before removing the
battery.
• Use the battery for the intended purpose only.
• Do not disassemble or modify the battery.
• Do not let the metal contacts on the battery touch
another metal object. This could short-circuit and
damage the battery.
• Do not allow the battery to be put into the mouth.
Battery electrolytes may be toxic if swallowed.
