battery. Performance depends on temperatures, signal strength, usage patterns, features
selected and voice or data transmissions. Only Sony service partners should remove or
replace built-in batteries. Use of batteries that are not Sony branded may pose increased
safety risks. Replace the battery only with another Sony battery that has been qualified with
the product per the standard IEEE-1725. Use of an unqualified battery may present a risk of
fire, explosion, leakage or other hazard.

ersonal medical devices
Mobile devices / devices with radio transmitters may affect implanted medical equipment.
Reduce risk of interference by keeping a minimum distance of 15 cm(6 inches) between the
Sony product and the medical device. Use the Sony device at your right ear, when
applicable. Do not carry the device in your breast pocket. Turn off the device if you suspect
interference. For use in proximity to personal medical devices, please consult a physician
and the device manufacturer.
Driving
In some cases, vehicle manufacturers may forbid the use of mobile devices in their vehicles
unless a handsfree kit with an external antenna supports the installation. Check with the
vehicle manufacturer's representative to be sure that a mobile device or Bluetooth handsfree
will not affect the electronic systems in the 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 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 Sony Mobile devices
for essential communication. Calls may not be possible in all areas, on all networks, or when
certain network services and/or mobile device features are used. Please note that some
Sony devices are not capable of supporting voice calls, including emergency calls.
Antenna
Use of antenna devices not marketed by Sony could damage the mobile device, reduce
performance, and produce Specific Absorption Rate (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 the mobile device or Bluetooth handsfree functionality 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
