About this user’s guide

For ease of reference, the “Getting to know your phone”

chapter gives a quick overview of the main functions of

the phone, shortcuts and general information.

More information and downloads are available at

www.SonyEricsson.com/cn or wap.SonyEricsson.com.

Note: Throughout this manual, WAP and Web are used

interchangeably to refer to internet services.

Available services

Some services and functions described in this user’s

guide are network- or subscription-dependent. Because

of this, some menus may not be available in your phone.

This symbol indicates that a service or function

is network or subscription-dependent.

Please consult your network operator for more

information about your subscription.

The SIM card

When you register as a subscriber with a network

operator, you get a SIM (Subscriber Identity Module)

card. The SIM card contains a computer chip that keeps

track of your phone number, the services included in

your subscription, and your phonebook information.

Tip: Check if your information is saved to the SIM

card before you remove it from another phone.

For example, phonebook entries may be saved in the

phone memory.

Note: Sony Ericsson advice users to backup their

personal data information.

Assembly

Before you can use your phone you need to:

• Insert the SIM card.

• Attach and charge the battery. See “SIM card and

battery information” on page 4.

Note: Always turn off the phone and detach the

charger before you insert or remove a SIM card.

SIM card and battery information

It may take up to 30 minutes before an icon appears

when charging if the battery is completely discharged.

1. Insert the SIM card. Make sure the SIM card is placed

under the metal clips.

2. Place the battery on the back of the phone with the

connectors facing each other (label side up).

3. Place the back cover into the bottom of the phone and

slide it up until it clicks into place.

4. Connect the charger to the phone at the flash symbol.

The flash symbol on the charger plug must face

upwards.

5. It may take up to 30 minutes before the battery

charging icon appears in the display. Wait

approximately 4 hours or until the icon indicates that

the battery is fully charged. If you do not see the

battery icon after this time, press any key or the centre

select key to activate the display. The display will

“sleep” during charging.

6. Remove the charger by tilting the plug upwards.

Note: You have to insert the SIM card and charge the

battery before you can use the phone.

Getting started 5

Holding the Phone

Hold your mobile phone

as you would any other

telephone. While speaking

into the mouthpiece, angle

the phone up and over

your shoulder.

Internal Antenna

Your phone is equipped with an internal antenna. For

best reception, try to hold your phone so your hand does

not cover the internal antenna. The antenna is located on

the back of the phone above the back cover.

Turning On the Phone

Press and hold NO until you hear a

tone. Enter your PIN (Personal

Identity Number), if you have one

for your SIM card. Your PIN is

provided by your network operator.

If you make a mistake while

entering your PIN, delete the

wrong number by pressing .

If your PIN starts with the same digits as an emergency

number, for example 911, the digits are not hidden with an

* when you enter them. This is so that you can see and

call an emergency number without entering a PIN.

See “Emergency calls” on page 30 for more information.

Note: If you enter the wrong PIN three times in a row,

the SIM card is blocked and the message PIN blocked

appears. To unblock it, you need to enter your PUK

(Personal Unblocking Key). Your PUK is provided by

your network operator.

To make and receive calls

• Enter the area code and phone number, and press YES

to make the call.

• Press NO to end the call.

• When the phone rings, press YES to answer the call.
