Memory and storage Your device has different types of memory and storage options. The internal storage is about 4 GB and is used to store downloaded or transferred content along with personal settings and data. Some examples of data stored to the internal storage are alarm, volume and language settings; emails; bookmarks;
calendar events; photos; videos and music. You can use a removable memory card with a storage capacity of up to 32 GB to get more storage space. Media files and some apps (with their data) can be moved to this type of memory to free up internal storage. Some apps, for example, the Camera app, can save data directly to a memory card. When installing an app, you can choose to install it on either the internal storage or the memory card. If the internal storage is full while the memory card has a lot of available space, it is a good idea to install apps on the memory card. The dynamic memory (RAM) is about 2 GB and cannot be used for storage. RAM is used to handle running applications and the operating system. You may have to purchase a memory card separately. Read more about the use of memory in Android devices by downloading the White paper for your device at www.sonymobile.com/support.

Using your device in wet and dusty conditions To ensure the water resistance of your device, all covers, including the covers for the micro USB port, the SIM card slot and the memory card slot, must be firmly closed. Your smart device is waterproof and dust resistant in compliance with the Ingress Protection (IP) ratings IP65 and IP68, as explained in the table below. To view more specific IP information about your device, go to www.sonymobile.com/global-en/
legal/testresults/ and click on the relevant device name. These specific IP ratings mean that your device is dust resistant and is protected against low pressure water stream as well as against the effects of immersion for 30 minutes in fresh (non-saline) water up to 1.5 metres deep. You can use your device:
in dusty environments, for example, on a windy beach. in some extreme weather conditions, for example, when its snowing or raining. in fresh (non-saline) water depths of 1.5 metres or less, for example, in a fresh water lake or river. in a chlorinated swimming pool. Even if your device is resistant to dust and water, you should avoid exposing it unnecessarily to environments with excessive dust, sand and mud or to moist environments with extreme high or low temperatures. The waterproof ability of the micro USB port, the SIM card slot, the memory card slot and the headset jack cannot be guaranteed in all environments or conditions. Never immerse your device in salt water or let the micro USB port or headset jack come in contact with salt water. For example, if youre at the beach, remember to keep your device away from the sea water. Also, never expose the device to any liquid chemicals. For example, if youre washing dishes by hand using liquid detergent, avoid bringing your device in contact with the detergent. After exposure to non-fresh water, rinse your device using fresh water. Normal wear and tear along with damage to your device can reduce its ability to resist dust or moisture. After using the device in water, dry off the areas around all covers, including the covers for the micro USB port, the SIM card slot and the memory card slot. If the speaker or microphone get wet, their function may be impacted until the water has completely dried. Please note that the drying time can be up to three hours depending on the environment. During this time, you can, however, use other features in the device that do not utilise the speaker or microphone. All compatible accessories, including batteries, chargers, handsfree devices and micro USB cables, are not waterproof and dust resistant on their own.

The E2303 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 Important Information 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 1.12 W/kg*, and when worn on the body is 1.19 W/kg*. 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 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 10 mm. Use of third-party 2 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://transition.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid after searching on FCC ID PY7-PM0780. Additional information on SAR can be found on the Mobile Manufacturers Forum EMF website at http://www.emfexplained.info/.
* 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.
