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 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.

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.
Malware
Malware (short for malicious software) is software
that can harm your phone or other computers.
Malware or harmful applications can include
viruses, worms, spyware, and other unwanted
programs. While your device does employ security
measures to resist such efforts, Sony Ericsson
does not warrant or represent that your device
will be impervious to introduction of malware. You
can however reduce the risk of malware attacks by
using care when downloading content or accepting
applications, refraining from opening or responding
to messages from unknown sources, using
trustworthy services to access the Internet, and
only downloading content to your phone from
known, reliable sources.
Accessories
Use only Sony Ericsson branded original
accessories and certified service partners.
Sony Ericsson does not test third-party
accessories. Accessories may influence RF
Exposure, radio performance, sound loudness,
electric safety and other areas. Third-party
accessories and parts may pose a risk to your
health or safety or decrease performance.
Accessible Solutions/Special Needs
In the US, compatible Sony Ericsson phones may
offer compatibility with TTY terminals (with use of
necessary accessory). For more information call the
