Important information
Driving
Some vehicle manufacturers forbid the use of phones
in their vehicles unless a handsfree kit with an external
antenna supports the installation. Check with your
vehicle manufacturer’s representative to be sure that
your mobile phone or Bluetooth handsfree will not
affect the electronic systems in your vehicle. Full
attention should be given to driving at all times and
local laws and regulations restricting the use of
wireless devices while driving must be observed.
GPS/Location based functions
Some products provide GPS/Location based
functions. Location determining functionality is
provided “As is” and “With all faults”. Sony Ericsson
does not make any representation or warranty as to
the accuracy of such location information.
Use of location-based information by the device may
not be uninterrupted or error free and may additionally
be dependent on network service availability. Please
note that functionality may be reduced or prevented
in certain environments such as building interiors or
areas adjacent to buildings.
Caution: Do not use GPS functionality in a manner
which causes distraction from driving.
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.
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.
For more information about SAR and radio frequency
exposure go to:
Flight mode
Bluetooth and WLAN functionality, if available in
your device, can be enabled in Flight mode but may
be prohibited onboard aircraft or in other areas
where radio transmissions are prohibited. In such
environments, please seek proper authorization
before enabling Bluetooth or WLAN functionality
even in Flight mode.
