Battery use and care
We recommend that you fully charge the battery 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).
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.

Warning!
May explode if disposed of in fire.
• 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 liquid.
• Do not let the metal contacts on the battery touch another metal
object. This could short-circuit and damage the battery.
• Do not disassemble or modify the battery.
• Do not expose the battery to extreme temperatures,
never above +60°C (+140°F). For maximum battery
capacity, use the battery in room temperature.
• Turn off your mobile phone before removing the
battery.
• Keep out of children’s reach.
• Use the battery for the intended purpose only.
• Do not allow the battery to be put into the mouth.
Battery electrolytes may be toxic if swallowed.
Disposing of the battery
Please check local regulations for disposal of batteries or
call your local Sony Ericsson Call Center for information.
The battery should never be placed in municipal waste.
