Additional information
Our warranty
Subject to the conditions of this Limited Warranty, 
Sony Ericsson warrants this Product to be free from 
defects in design, material and workmanship at the 
time of its original purchase by a consumer, and for 
a subsequent period of one (1) year.
What we will do
If, during the warranty period, this Product fails to 
operate under normal use and service, due to defects 
in design, materials or workmanship, Sony Ericsson 
authorised distributors or service partners, in the 
country/region* where you purchased the Product, 
will, at their option, either repair or replace the 
Product in accordance with the terms and conditions 
stipulated herein.
Sony Ericsson and its service partners reserve the 
right to charge a handling fee if a returned Product 
is found not to be under warranty according to the 
conditions below.
Please note that your personal settings/downloads 
might be lost when the Product is repaired or replaced.
Conditions
1
The warranty is valid only if the original proof of 
purchase issued to the original purchaser by an, 
for this Product, Sony Ericsson authorised dealer, 
specifying the date of purchase and serial number**, 
is presented with the Product to be repaired or 
replaced. Sony Ericsson reserves the right to 
refuse warranty service if this information has 
been removed or changed after the original 
purchase of the Product from the dealer. 
2
If Sony Ericsson repairs or replaces the Product, 
the repaired or replaced Product shall be 
warranted for the remaining time of the original 
warranty period or for ninety (90) days from the 
date of repair, whichever is longer. Repair or 
replacement may involve the use of functionally 
equivalent reconditioned units. Replaced parts 
or components will become the property of Sony 
Ericsson.
3
This warranty does not cover any failure of the 
Product due to normal wear and tear, or due to 
misuse, including but not limited to use in other 
than the normal and customary manner, in 
accordance with the Sony Ericsson instructions 
for use and maintenance of the Product. Nor does 
this warranty cover any failure of the Product due 
to accident, software or hardware modification or 
adjustment, acts of God or damage resulting from 
liquid. A rechargeable battery can be charged and 
discharged hundreds of times. However, it will 
eventually wear out – this is not a defect. When 
the talk-time or standby time is noticeably shorter, 
it is time to replace your battery. Sony Ericsson 
recommends that you use only batteries and 
chargers approved by Sony Ericsson.
