Page 51

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 standa rds.

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 be en used for a long time could have reduced capacity the first few times it is used. The battery should only be charged in tempe ratures betwee n +5°C ( +41 °F) and +45°C (+113°F).

Use only Sony Ericsson branded original batteries intende d for use with your mobile phone . Using other ba tteries and chargers could be dangerous.

The talk and standby times de pend on several diff ere nt con ditio ns suc h as sign al stren gth, operating tem perature, application usage patterns, features selected a nd voice or data transmissions when using t he mobile phone.

Turn off your mobile phone before removing the battery. Do not allow the battery to be put into the mouth. Battery electrolytes may be toxic if swallowed. Do not let the metal contacts on the battery touch an other metal object. This could short-circuit and damage the battery. Use the battery for the intended purpose only.

Personal medical devices

Mobi le phon es may affect the ope rati on of card iac pacema kers and o ther impla nted equipment. Pl ease avoi d placi ng t he mo bile phone over the pacema ker, e.g . in you r brea st pock et. Whe n usin g the mobile phone, p lace it at the ear opposite the pacemaker. If a minimum d istance of 15 cm (6 inche s) is ke pt between th e mobile ph one and the pacemake r, the risk of in terference is limited. If you have any rea son to susp ect that interf erenc e is taking pla ce, immediately turn off your mobile phone. Contact your cardiologist for more in formation.

For other medical devices, please consult your phy sici an and the m anuf acturer of t he devi ce.

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 only Sony Ericsson handsfree solutions intended for use with your product.

Pl ease n ote th at becau se of po ssible i nter feren ce to elec tronic equipment, some vehicle manu factu rers 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.

Emergency calls

Mobile phones operate using radio signals, which can not gua ran tee con nect ion un der all co ndi tion s. Therefore you should never rely solely upon any mobile phone for essential communications (e. g. med ica l emerg enci es).

Emergency calls may not be possible in all a reas, on all cellular networks, or when certain network se rvices and/o r mobil e phone fea ture s ar e in use. Check with your local service provider.

Radio frequency (RF) exposure and SAR

Your mobile phone is a low-power radio transmitter and r eceiver . When it is turned on, i t emits low level s of radio frequency energy (also known as radio waves or radio frequency fi elds).

Governments around th e world have adopted comprehensive international safety guidelines, developed b y scientific organizations, e.g. ICNIRP (International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation P rotection) and IE EE (The Institute of Elec trical and Electronics Engi neers Inc.), throu gh periodic an d thorough evaluation of scientific studies. These guidelines establish permitted levels of radio wave exposure for t he general population. The l evels incl ude a sa fety m arg in de signed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and h ealth, and to acc ou nt for any va riation s in meas urement s.

Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) is the unit of meas ureme nt for the a mount of radio fre quency energ y abso rbe d by t he body w hen us ing a mobile phone. The SAR value is determined at the highest ce rtif ied p owe r leve l in lab orat ory c on diti ons , bu t the actual SAR level of the mobile phone while operating can be well below this value. This is becau se the mobil e pho ne is design ed t o use th e minimum power requ ired to r each th e ne twork.

Varia tions in SAR below the radio frequency exp osure guidelines do not m ean that there are vari ations in s afe ty. While there m ay be di fferen ces in SAR levels among mobile phones, all Sony Ericsson mobile p hone models are designed to meet radio frequency e xposure guid elines.

For phon es sold in the U.S., be fore a phone model is av ailab le fo r sa le t o the public , it mus t be tes te d and certified to the FCC that it does not exce ed the limit established by the government-adopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests are performed i n positions and locations (that i s, at t he ear and worn on the body) as required by the FCC for ea ch model. For bo dy wor n operat ion, th is phone has been tested an d meets FCC RF exposure guidelines when the handset is positioned a minimum of 15 mm from the body without any met al par ts in the vicini ty of the ph one or when used with the original Sony Ericsson body worn acce ssory i ntende d fo r th is phone. Use of other acce ssorie s ma y no t ens ure c omplia nce with FCC RF exposure guidelines.
