Additional information
Remember, in order to make or receive calls, the

BATTERY INFORMATION
CHARGING THE BATTERY
The battery delivered with your mobile phone is not fully
charged. We recommend that you charge the battery for
4 hours before you use your mobile phone for the
first time.
The battery can only be charged in temperatures
b5°C (+41°F) and +45°C (+113°F).
Standby time: 165h to 290h.
BATTERY USE AND CARE
A rechargeable battery has a long service life if treated
properly. 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. 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.
• Turn off your mobile phone before removing the battery.
• Use the battery for the intended purpose only.
• Do not attempt to take the battery apart.
• Do not let the metal contacts on the battery touch
another metal object. This could short-circuit and
damage the battery.
• Do not expose the battery to open flames. This could
cause the battery to explode.
• Do not expose the battery to liquid.
• Do not allow the battery to be put into the mouth. Battery
electrolytes may be toxic if swallowed.
DISPOSING OF THE BATTERY
The battery should never be placed in municipal waste.
Please check local regulations for disposal of batteries or
call your local Sony Ericsson Customer Care Center
for information.
