The SIM card  
Getting started  
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 phonebook information.  
About this user’s guide  
For ease of reference, the “Getting to know your phone”  
chapter gives a quick overview of the main functions of  
the phone, shortcuts and general information.  
Tip: Check if your information is saved to the SIM card  
before you remove it from another phone. For example,  
phonebook entries may be saved in the phone memory.  
For instructions on copying your SIM card information to  
your phone, see “Phonebook” on page 26.  
More information and downloads are available at  
or wap.SonyEricsson.com.  
Note: Throughout this manual, WAP and Web are  
used interchangeably to refer to internet services.

battery information” on page 4.

Do not use your product near medical equipment without  
requesting permission.  
Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use  
Please read this information before using  
your mobile phone.  
Do not use your product when in, or around aircraft,  
or areas posted “turn off two-way radio”.  
When exchanging the cover please note  
that the product may contain substances  
that could create an allergic reaction.  
Do not use your product in an area where  
a potentially explosive atmosphere exists.  
Do not place your product or install wireless  
equipment in the area above your car’s air bag.  
RECOMMENDATIONS

and dust-free place.  
Do not attempt to disassemble your product.  
Only Sony Ericsson authorized personnel  
should perform service.  
Do not expose your product to liquid or moisture  
or humidity.  
Do not direct the infrared ray at anyone's  
eye and make sure that it does not disturb  
any other infrared units.  
Do not expose your product to extreme high  
or low temperatures.

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.  
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).  
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.  
Before a phone model is available for sale to the public,  
it must be tested and certified to the FCC that it does not  
exceed the limit established by the government-adopted  
requirement for safe exposure. The tests are performed  
in positions and locations (that is, at the ear and worn on  
the body) as required by the FCC for each model. For body  
worn operation, this phone has been tested and meets FCC  
RF exposure guidelines when the handset is positioned a  
minimum of 20 mm from the body without any metal parts  
in the vicinity of the phone or when used with the original  
Sony Ericsson body worn accessory intended for this phone.  
Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance with  
FCC RF exposure guidelines.  
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

phone model is included with the material that comes  
with this mobile phone. This information can also be

have any reason to suspect that interference is taking  
place, immediately turn off your mobile phone. Contact  
your cardiologist for more information.  
CHILDREN  
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 PHONE OR ITS  
ACCESSORY MAY CONTAIN SMALL PARTS THAT  
COULD BE DETACHED AND CREATE A CHOKING  
HAZARD.  
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.  
DISPOSING OF THE PRODUCT  
Your mobile phone should not be placed  
in municipal waste. Please check local  
regulations for disposal of electronic  
products.  
Always give full attention to driving and pull off the road and  
park before making or answering a call if driving conditions  
so require.  
POWER SUPPLY  
PERSONAL MEDICAL DEVICES  
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.  
Mobile phones may affect the operation of cardiac  
pacemakers and other implanted equipment. Please avoid  
placing the mobile phone over the pacemaker, for example,  
in your breast pocket. When using the mobile phone, place  
it at the ear opposite the pacemaker. If a minimum distance  
of 6 inches (15 cm) is kept between the mobile phone and  
the pacemaker, the risk of interference is limited. If you

Do not expose the battery to extreme  
temperatures, never above +140°F (+60°C).  
For maximumbattery capacity, use the battery  
at room temperature.  
EMERGENCY CALLS  
Mobile phones operate using radio signals, which cannot  
guarantee connection under all conditions. Therefore you  
l
should never rely solely upon any mobile phone for essentia  
communications (for example, medical emergencies).  
Turn off your mobile phone before removing  
the battery.  
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.  
Keep out of children’s reach.  
Use the battery for the intended purpose only.  
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 +41°F (+5°C)  
and +113°F (+45°C).  
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.  
Please check local regulations for disposal  
of batteries or call your local Sony Ericsson  
Customer Care Center for information.  
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.
