Do not let the battery contacts touch another metal
object. Turn off the product before removing the
battery. Performance depends on temperatures,
signal strength, usage patterns, features selected
and voice or data transmissions. Only
Sony Ericsson service partners should remove or
replace built-in batteries. Use of batteries that are
not Sony Ericsson branded may pose increased
safety risks.

63Important information

Personal medical devices

Mobile phones may affect implanted medical
equipment. Reduce risk of interference by keeping
a minimum distance of 15 cm (6 inches) between
the phone and the device. Use the phone at your
right ear. Do not carry the phone in your breast
pocket. Turn off the phone if you suspect
interference. For all medical devices, consult a
physician and the manufacturer.

Driving

Some vehicle manufacturers forbid the use of
phones in their vehicles unless a handsfree kit with
an external antenna supports the installation.
Check with your vehicle manufacturer’s
representative to be sure that your mobile phone or
Bluetooth handsfree will not affect the electronic
systems in your vehicle. Full attention should be
given to driving at all times and local laws and
regulations restricting the use of wireless devices
while driving must be observed.

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

Calls cannot be guaranteed under all conditions.
Never rely solely upon mobile phones for essential
communications. Calls may not be possible in all
areas, on all networks, or when certain network
services and/or phone features are used.

Antenna

Use of antenna devices not marketed by
Sony Ericsson could damage your phone, reduce
performance, and produce SAR levels above the
established limits. Do not cover the antenna with
your hand as this affects call quality, power levels
and can shorten talk and standby times.

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)

When your phone or Bluetooth handsfree is turned
on, it emits low levels of radio frequency energy.
International safety guidelines have been
developed through periodic and thorough
evaluation of scientific studies. These guidelines
establish permitted levels of radio wave exposure.
The guidelines include a safety margin designed to
assure the safety of all persons and to account for
any variations in measurements.

Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) is used to measure
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 because the phone is designed to
use the minimum power necessary to access the

64 Important information

chosen network, the actual SAR level can be well
below this value. There is no proof of difference in
safety based on difference in SAR value.
Products with radio transmitters sold in the US
must be certified by the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC). When required, tests are
performed when the phone is placed at the ear and
when worn on the body. For body-worn operation,
the phone has been tested when positioned a
minimum of 15 mm from the body without any
metal parts in the vicinity of the phone or when
properly used with an appropriate Sony Ericsson
accessory and worn on the body.
For more information about SAR and radio
frequency exposure go to: www.sonyericsson.com/
health.

Malware

Malware (short for malicious software) is software
that can harm your mobile phone or other
computers. Malware or harmful applications can
include viruses, worms, spyware, and other
unwanted programs. While your device does
employ security measures to resist such efforts,
Sony Ericsson does not warrant or represent that
your device will be impervious to introduction of
malware. You can however reduce the risk of
malware attacks by using care when downloading
content or accepting applications, refraining from
opening or responding to messages from unknown
sources, using trustworthy services to access the
Internet, and only downloading content to your
mobile phone from known, reliable sources.

Accessories

Use only Sony Ericsson branded original
accessories and certified service partners.
Sony Ericsson does not test third-party
accessories. Accessories may influence RF
Exposure, radio performance, sound loudness,

electric safety and other areas. Third-party
accessories and parts may pose a risk to your
health or safety or decrease performance.

Accessible Solutions/Special Needs

In the US, compatible Sony Ericsson phones may
offer compatibility with TTY terminals (with use of
necessary accessory). For more information call the
Sony Ericsson Special Needs Center on 877 878
1996 (TTY) or 877 207 2056 (voice), or go to
www.sonyericsson-snc.com.

Disposal of old electrical
and electronic equipment

Electronic equipment and batteries
should not be included as household
waste but should be left at an
appropriate collection point for recycling. This
helps prevent potential negative consequences for
the environment and human health. Check local
regulations by contacting your local city office, your
household waste disposal service, the shop where
you purchased the product or calling a
Sony Ericsson Call Center.

Disposing of the battery

Check local regulations or call a
Sony Ericsson Call Center for
information. Never use municipal
waste.

Memory card

If your product comes complete with a removable
memory card, it is generally compatible with the
mobile phone purchased but may not be
compatible with other devices or the capabilities of
their memory cards. Check other devices for
compatibility before purchase or use. If your
product is equipped with a memory card reader,
check memory card compatibility before purchase
or use.

65Important information

Memory cards are generally formatted prior to
shipping. To reformat the memory card, use a
compatible device. Do not use the standard
operating system format when formatting the
memory card on a PC. For details, refer to the
operating instructions of the device or contact
customer support.

WARNING:

If your device requires an adapter for insertion into
the mobile phone or another device, do not insert
the card directly without the required adapter.

Precautions on Memory Card Use

• Do not expose the memory card to moisture.

• Do not touch terminal connections with your hand
or any metal object.

• Do not strike, bend, or drop the memory card.

• Do not attempt to disassemble or modify the
memory card.

• Do not use or store the memory card in humid or
corrosive locations or in excessive heat such as a
closed car in summer, in direct sunlight or near a
heater, etc.

• Do not press or bend the end of the memory card
adapter with excessive force.

• Do not let dust or foreign objects get into the insert
port of any memory card adapter.

• Check you have inserted the memory card
correctly.

• Insert the memory card as far as it will go into any
memory card adapter needed. The memory card
may not operate properly unless fully inserted.

• We recommend that you make a backup copy of
important data. We are not responsible for any loss
or damage to content you store on the memory
card.

• Recorded data may be damaged or lost when you
remove the memory card or memory card adapter,
or turn off the power while formatting, reading or

writing data, or when you use the memory card in
locations subject to static electricity or high
electrical field emissions.

Protection of personal information

Erase personal data before disposing of the
product. To delete data, perform a master reset.
Deleting data from the phone memory does not
ensure that it cannot be recovered. Sony Ericsson
does not warrant against recovery of information
and does not assume responsibility for disclosure
of any information even after a master reset.

Accessories

Sony Ericsson recommends use of Sony Ericsson
original accessories for safe and efficient use of its
products. Use of third-party accessories may
decrease performance or pose a risk to your health
or safety.

LOUDNESS WARNING:

Avoid volume levels that may be harmful to your
hearing.

Limited Warranty

Sony Ericsson Mobile Communications AB, Nya
Vattentornet, SE-221 88 Lund, Sweden,
(Sony Ericsson) or its local affiliated company,
provides this Limited Warranty for your mobile
phone, original accessory delivered with your
mobile phone, and/or your mobile computing
product (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 Center
(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 repaired or repla ced.
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 This Limited Warranty is valid only if the original

proof of purchase for this Product issued by a
Sony Ericsson authorized dealer specifying the

67Important information

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.

68 Important information
