8 Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use
Disposing of the Product
Your mobile phone should not be placed in municipal
waste. Please check local regulations for disposal of
electronic products.
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.
Battery Use and Care
Charge the battery for 12 hours 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.
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.
• Do not expose the battery to extreme temperatures,
never above +60°C (+140°F). For maximum battery
capacity, use the battery at room temperature.
• Warning! May explode if disposed of in fire.
• Do not expose the battery to liquid.
• Keep out of children’s reach.
• Turn off your mobile phone before removing the
battery.
• Use the battery for the intended purpose only.
• Do not disassemble or modify the battery.
• If your mobile phone battery has metal contacts, do not
let the metal contacts touch another metal object. This
could short-circuit and damage the battery.
