68 Important Information
Emergency calls
Calls cannot be guaranteed under all conditions.
Never rely solely upon 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 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 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.

exposure go to: www.sonyericsson.com/health.
Malware
Malware (short for malicious software) is software
that can harm your 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 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.
