Notes on USB cable usage and battery charging

•To charge your phone, Sony Ericsson strongly recommends that you use only

Sony Ericsson branded original batteries, a power supply which is in accordance with specification YD/T 1591-2006 (a Communications Industry standard of P. R. China), and the USB cable supplied with your phone. The use of third-party products may decrease the performance of your phone and/or pose a risk to your health or safety

Actual charging times may vary. When tested in laboratory conditions, the approximate charging time for an empty battery is around 3 hours when utilizing the charger recommended by Sony Ericsson for your phone. Interrupted charging does not damage the battery. Performance depends on temperature, signal strength, usage patterns, features selected and voice or data transmissions. The standby time for this battery is up to 331 hours in GSM network; up to 340 hours in UMTS network (the test results are based on GSMA battery life test technology).

Use only Sony Ericsson branded original batteries intended for use with your mobile phone. If you use other batteries you may not be able to charge your phone.

Improving battery performance

The following tips can help you improve battery performance:

•Charge your phone often. This will not affect the lifetime of the battery.

•Downloading data from the Internet is power consuming. When you're not using the Internet, you can save power by disabling all data connections over mobile networks. You can do this from Settings > More… > Mobile networks > Data enabled. This setting does not prevent your phone from transmitting data over other wireless networks.

•Turn off GPS, Bluetooth™ and WLAN when you don't need these features. You can turn them on and off more easily by adding the Status switch widget to your Home screen. You do not need to turn off 3G.
