About this User’s Guide  
Some services and functions described in this User’s  
Guide are network- and subscription-dependent.  
Because of this, all menus may not be available in  
your phone and the shortcut numbers to menus and  
functions may vary between phones.  
Note: Always turn off the phone and detach the  
charger before you insert or remove a SIM card.  
This symbol indicates that a service or  
function is network- or operator-dependent.  
Please refer to the information provided by  
your network operator for more information  
about your subscription.  
We recommend that you read the chapter “Getting  
to know your phone” on page 9 for information about  
how to move through the menus.  
The SIM card  
When you register as a subscriber with a network  
operator, you get a SIM (Subscriber Identity Module)  
card. The SIM card contains a computer chip that  
keeps track of your phone number, the services  
included in your subscription, and your Phone Book  
information, among other things.

Guidelines for safe and efficient use  
Do not attempt to disassemble your product. Only  
Sony Ericsson authorised personnel should perform  
service.  
Do not direct the infrared ray at anyone's eye and make  
sure that it does not disturb any other infrared units.  
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 near medical equipment  
without requesting permission.  
• 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.  
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).  
• Do not place your product or install wireless  
equipment in the area above your car's air bag.

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.  
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  
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 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.  
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.

Always give full attention to driving and pull off  
the road and park before making or answering a call  
if driving conditions so require.  
MOBILE PHONE OR ITS ACCESSORY MAY  
CONTAIN SMALL PARTS THAT COULD BE  
DETACHED AND CREATE A CHOKING HAZARD.  
Disposing of the product  
Personal medical devices  
Your mobile phone should not be placed in municipal  
waste. Please check local regulations for disposal of  
electronic products.  
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.  
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.  
For other medical devices, please consult the  
manufacturer of the device.  
Children  
Emergency calls  
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 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).  
58  
Additional information  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
This is the Internet version of the user's guide. © Print only for private use.  
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.  
Do not disassemble or modify the battery.  
Use the battery for the intended purpose only.  
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.  
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.  
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.  
Do not allow the battery to be put into the  
mouth. Battery electrolytes may be toxic if  
swallowed.  
Disposing of the battery  
Warning! May explode if disposed of in fire.  
• 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.  
Please check local regulations for disposal  
of batteries or call your local Sony Ericsson  
Customer Care Center for information.  
The battery should never be placed in municipal  
waste. Use a battery disposal facility if available.
