70 Important information
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
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.

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
