Remember, in order to make or receive calls, the mobile phone must be switched on and in a service area with adequate cellular signal strength. Emergency calls may not be possible on all cellular phone networks or when certain network services and/or mobile phone features are in use. Check with your local service provider. 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 between +5°C (+41°F) and +45°C (+113°F). 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.
