SAR Information FCC Statement Declaration of Conformity Sony C1505 UMTS HSPA Band 1 8 GSM GPRS/EDGE 850/900/1800/1900 Important Information United States & Canada THIS PHONE MODEL HAS BEEN CERTIFIED IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE GOVERNMENTS REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES. The C1505 Series mobile phones have been designed to comply with applicable safety requirements for exposure to radio waves. Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed to not exceed the limits* of exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by governmental authorities. These limits establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The guidelines are based on standards that were developed by international scientific organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The standards include a safety margin designed to assure the safety of all individuals, regardless of age and health. The radio wave exposure guidelines employ a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR). Tests for SAR are conducted using standardized methods with the phone transmitting at its highest certified power level in all used frequency bands. While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phone models, they are all designed to meet the relevant guidelines for exposure to radio waves. For more information on SAR, please refer to the safe and efficient use chapter in the User Guide. The highest SAR value as reported to the authorities for this phone model when tested for use by the ear is 0.89 W/kg*, and when worn on the body is 0.59 W/kg* for speech and 1.42 W/kg* for data calls. For body-worn operation, the phone has been tested when positioned a minimum of 15 mm from the body without any metal parts in the vicinity of the phone or when properly used with an appropriate Sony accessory and worn on the body. For devices which include WiFi hotspot functionality, SAR measurements for the device operating in WiFi hotspot mode were taken using a separation distance of 2 10mm. Use of third-party accessories may result in different SAR levels than those reported.
**Before a phone model is available for sale to the public in the US, it must be tested and certified by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) that it does not exceed the limit established by the government-adopted requirement for safe exposure*. The tests are performed in positions and locations (i.e., by the ear and worn on the body) as required by the FCC for each model. The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this phone model with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones, all mobile phones granted an FCC equipment authorization meet the government requirement for safe exposure. SAR information on this phone model is on file at the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching on FCC ID PY7PM-0510. Additional information on SAR can be found on the Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association
(CTIA) website at http://www.phonefacts.net.
* In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phones used by the public is 1.6 watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged over one gram of tissue. The standard incorporates a margin of safety to give additional protection for the public and to account for any variations in measurements.

Your Xperia smartphone from Sony runs on the Android platform. Android phones can perform many of the same functions as a computer and you can customise them to your own needs. For example, you can add and delete applications, or enhance existing applications to improve functionality. On Google Play you can download a range of applications and games from a constantly growing collection. You can also integrate applications on your Android phone with other applications and with online services that you use. For example, you can back up your phone contacts, access your different email accounts and calendars from one place, keep track of your appointments, and engage in social networking. Android phones are constantly evolving. When a new software version is available and your phone supports this new software, you can update your phone to get new features and the latest improvements. Your Android phone is pre-loaded with Google services. To get the most out of the provided Google services, you should have a Google account and sign in to it when you first start your phone. You also need to have Internet access to use many of the features in Android. New software releases may not be compatible with all phones. 7 This is an Internet version of this publication.

It may take a few minutes before the battery icon appears on the screen when you connect the phone charger cable to a power source, such as a USB port or a phone charger. You can still use your phone while it is charging. Charging the phone over a long period of time, for example, overnight, does not damage the battery or the phone. The battery will start to discharge a little after it is fully charged and then charges again after a certain time when the phone charger is connected. This is to extend battery life and may result in the charge status showing a level below 100 percent. 13 This is an Internet version of this publication. Print only for private use. To charge the phone 1 Plug the phone charger into a power outlet. 2 Plug one end of the USB cable into the charger (or into the USB port of a computer). 3 Plug the other end of the cable into the micro USB port on your phone, with the USB symbol facing down. The battery status LED lights up when charging starts. 4 When the battery status LED is green, the phone is fully charged. Disconnect the USB cable from your phone by pulling it straight outwards. Make sure not to bend the connector when removing the cable from the phone. If the battery is completely discharged, it may take a few minutes before the LED lights up after you connect the phone charger cable to a power source. Battery LED status Green The battery is fully charged Flashing red The battery level is low Orange The battery is charging. The battery level is between low and full To check the battery level 1 From your Home screen, tap 2 Find and tap Settings > About phone > Status > Battery level. 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. This setting does not prevent your phone from transmitting data over other wireless networks. Turn off GPS, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi when you don't need these features. You can turn them on and off more easily by adding the Quick settings widget to your Home screen. You do not need to turn off 3G. 14 This is an Internet version of this publication. Print only for private use. Use the Power Saver feature to reduce battery consumption. You can select the power saving mode that best suits the way you use your phone. You can also customise the settings of each power saving mode. Set your synchronisation applications (used to synchronise your email, calendar and contacts) to synchronise manually. You can also synchronise automatically, but increase the synchronisation intervals. Check the battery usage menu in the phone to see which applications use the most power. Your battery consumes more power when you use video and music streaming applications, such as YouTube. Some applications downloaded from Google Play may also consume more power. Close and exit applications that you are not using. Lower the screen display brightness level. Turn off your phone or activate the Airplane mode setting if you are in an area with no network coverage. Otherwise, your phone repeatedly scans for available networks, and this consumes power. Use a Sony original handsfree device to listen to music. Handsfree devices demand less battery power than the phone's loudspeakers. Keep your phone in standby whenever possible. Standby time refers to the time during which the phone is connected to the network and is not being used. Disable any live wallpaper. Go to www.sonymobile.com to get the latest battery performance tips for your phone model.

Using location services to find your position Use your phone to find out where you are. There are two methods: GPS and wireless networks. Enable the wireless networks option if you only need your approximate location, and want it fast. If you want a more exact position, and have a clear view of the sky, enable the GPS option. In situations where the wireless network connection is weak, you should enable both options to ensure that your location is found. Sony does not warrant the accuracy of any location services including but not limited to navigational services. To enable GPS 1 From your Home screen, tap 2 Tap Settings > Location services. 3 Mark the GPS satellites checkbox. Using GPS Your phone has a global positioning system (GPS) receiver that uses satellite signals to calculate your location. When you use features that require the GPS receiver to find your location, make sure you have a clear view of the sky. Getting the best performance The first time you use the GPS it can take 5 to 10 minutes for your location to be found. To help the search, make sure you have a clear view of the sky.

The GPS signals can pass through clouds and plastic, but not through most solid objects such as buildings and mountains. If your location isn't found after a few minutes, move to another location.
