Screen Protection
Before using your device, remove the protection film by pulling up on the protruding tab.
Screen covers and protectors may help you to protect your device against damage.
We recommend that you use only those screen covers intended for your Xperia™
device. The use of third-party screen protection accessories may prevent your
device from working correctly by covering sensors, lenses, speakers, or
microphones, and can invalidate the warranty.

The first time you start your device, a setup guide helps you to configure basic
settings, personalize your device, and sign in to your accounts, for example a
Google™ account.
