Features of Your Mobile Phone Voice Services With your mobile phone, there is no need to use your hands. You can answer or reject incoming calls, record voice labels, and record voice memos by simply speaking. You can also use the Magic Word feature to activate voice recognition by saying a single word. For more information, see “Voice Control” on page 39.
Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use Your mobile phone is a highly sophisticated electronic device. To get the most out of your mobile phone, please read this text about product care, and safe and efficient use. Product Care and Maintenance Do not expose your product to liquid or moisture or to humidity. Do not expose your product to extreme high or low temperatures. i erc a Do not drop, throw or try to bend your product as rough treatment could damage it.
Efficient Use For optimum performance with minimum power consumption please: • If your mobile phone is equipped with a retractable antenna, Sony Ericsson recommends that the antenna should be kept fully retracted (closed) while the phone is worn on the body to avoid the antenna touching, or coming in close proximity to, the body. • Hold your mobile phone as you would any other telephone. While speaking directly into the mouthpiece, angle the antenna in a direction up and over your shoulder.
This is because the 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. 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 phone models, all mobile phone models must be designed to meet radio frequency exposure guidelines.
Driving Please check if local laws and/or regulations, in the country/state where you are, restrict the use of mobile phones while driving. Law in many countries/states requires drivers to use a Hands Free solution. Sony Ericsson recommends that you use only Sony Ericsson or Ericsson branded Hands Free solutions intended for use with this product. Sony Ericsson is concerned about your safety.
Persons with pacemakers: • Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than six inches from their pacemaker when the phone is turned ON; • Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket; • Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference. • If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, turn your phone OFF immediately. Hearing Aids Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always, clearly marked. They include fuelling areas, below deck on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, and areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders. Do not transport or store flammable gas, liquid, or explosives in the same compartment of your vehicle that contains your mobile phone and accessories.
Battery Information Emergency Calls IMPORTANT! This mobile phone, like any mobile phone, operates using radio signals, cellular and landline networks as well as userprogrammed functions, which cannot guarantee connection under all conditions. Therefore you should never rely solely upon any mobile phone for essential communications (e.g. medical emergencies). Remember, in order to make or receive calls, the mobile phone must be switched on and in a service area with adequate cellular signal strength.
Use only Sony Ericsson or Ericsson branded original batteries and chargers intended for use with this product. Using other batteries and chargers could be dangerous, and the warranty does not cover product failures which have been caused by use of other batteries and chargers. • Do not expose the battery to extreme temperatures, never above +60°C (+140°F). For maximum battery capacity, use the battery in room temperature. If the battery is used in low temperatures, the battery capacity will be reduced.
Limited Warranty Sony Ericsson Mobile Communications (USA) Inc. (Sony Ericsson), provides this Limited Warranty for your mobile phone and any Ericsson or Sony Ericsson branded original accessory delivered with your mobile phone (hereinafter referred to as “Product”). To get maximum use of your new Product, we recommend that you follow a few simple steps: Read the Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use.
