certified power level in laboratory conditions, but the actual SAR level of the mobile phone while operating can be well below this value.

This is because the mobile phone is designed to use the minimum power required to reach the network. Therefore, the closer you are to a base station, the more likely it is that the actual SAR level will decrease.

Variations in SAR below the radio frequency exposure guidelines do not mean that there are variations in safety. While there may be differences in SAR levels among various mobile phones, all Sony Ericsson mobile phone models are designed to meet radio frequency exposure guidelines.

Accessories can significantly affect a mobile phone's compliance with the radio frequency exposure guidelines. For example, the Federal Communication Commission in the U.S. requires that some manufacturers' accessories shall be tested, and Sony Ericsson has done so with respect to its products. To avoid causing loss of performance or radio frequency exposure levels above the permissible limits it is recommended that you only use Sony Ericsson or Ericsson original accessories supplied with or designated for use with this mobile phone.

If you wear the mobile phone on your body while it is transmitting, and you do not use a Sony Ericsson or Ericsson original body worn accessory, please ensure that the mobile phone is positioned a minimum of

1.5cm from your body and that you are not using an accessory that contain any metal.

A separate leaflet with SAR information for this mobile phone model is included with the material that comes with this mobile phone. This information can also be found, together with more information on radio frequency exposure and SAR, on www.SonyEricsson.com/.

DRIVING

Please check if local laws and regulations restrict the use of mobile phones while driving or require drivers to use handsfree solutions. We recommend that you use only Ericsson or Sony Ericsson handsfree solutions intended for use with your product. Please note that because of possible interference to electronic equipment, some vehicle manufacturers forbid the use of mobile phones in their vehicles unless a handsfree kit with an external antenna supports the installation.

Always give full attention to driving and pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving conditions so require.

PERSONAL MEDICAL DEVICES

Mobile phones may affect the operation of cardiac pacemakers and other implanted equipment. Please avoid placing the mobile phone over the pacemaker, e.g. in your breast pocket. When using the mobile phone, place it at the ear opposite the pacemaker. If a minimum distance of 15 cm (6 inches) is kept between
