Always pay full attention to driving and pull off the road and park before 
making or answering a call if driving conditions so require.
Emergency calls
Mobile phones operate using radio signals, which cannot guarantee 
connection in all conditions. You should therefore never rely solely upon 
any mobile phone for essential communications (e.g. medical 
emergencies).
Emergency calls may not be possible in all areas, on all cellular networks, 
or when certain network services and/or mobile phone features are in use. 
Check with your local service provider.
Antenna
This phone contains a built-in antenna. Use of antenna devices not 
marketed by Sony Ericsson specifically for this model could damage your 
mobile phone, reduce performance, and produce SAR levels above the 
established limits (see below).
Efficient use
Hold your mobile phone as you would any other phone. Do not cover the 
top of the phone when it is in use, as this affects call quality and may 
cause the phone to operate at a higher power level than needed, thus 
shortening talk and standby times.
Radio frequency (RF) exposure and Specific 
Absorption Rate (SAR)
Your mobile phone is a low-power radio transmitter and receiver. When it 
is turned on, it emits low levels of radio frequency energy (also known as 
radio waves or radio frequency fields).
Governments around the world have adopted comprehensive international 
safety guidelines, developed by scientific organizations, e.g. ICNIRP 
(International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection) and IEEE 
(The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.), through periodic 
and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. These guidelines establish 
permitted levels of radio wave exposure for the general population. The 
levels include a safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, 
regardless of age and health, and to account for any variations in 
measurements.
