Why Do I Need a Google™ Account?
Your Xperia™ device from Sony runs on the Android™ platform developed by Google™.
A range of Google™ applications and services is available on your device when you
purchase it, like Gmail™, Google Maps™, YouTube™, and the Play Store™ application,
which gives you access to the Google Play™ online store for downloading Android™
applications. To get the most out of these services, you need a Google™ account. For
example, a Google™ account is mandatory if you want to:
•Download and install applications from Google Play™.
•Synchronize email, contacts, and the calendar.
•Chat with friends using the Hangouts™ application.
•Synchronize your browsing history and bookmarks.
For more information about Android™ and Google™, go to
www.sonymobile.com/support .

To Set up a Google™ Account on Your Device
1From your Homescreen, tap .
2Find and tap Settings > Accounts > Add account > Google.
3Follow the registration wizard to create a Google™ account, or sign in if you
already have an account.
You can also sign in to or create a Google™ account from the setup guide the first time you
start your device. Or you can go online and create an account at www.google.com/accounts .
Charging your Device
Your device has an embedded, rechargeable battery that should be replaced only by
Sony or an authorized Sony repair center. You should never try to open or take apart this
device yourself. Opening the device can cause damage that will void your warranty.
The battery is partly charged when the device is shipped from the factory. The battery
level may be very low, depending on how long the device was in the box before you
purchased it. It is therefore recommended that you charge the battery for at least 30
minutes before starting up your device for the first time. You can still use your device
while it is charging. Read more about how to improve battery performance in
Battery
and power management
on page 21 .
To charge your device
1Plug the charger into a power outlet.
2Plug one end of the USB cable into the charger (or into the USB port of a
computer).
3Plug the other end of the cable into the micro USB port on your device, with the
USB symbol facing up. The notification light illuminates when charging begins.
4When the device is fully charged, disconnect the cable from your device by pulling
it straight outward. Make sure not to bend the connector.
If the battery is completely discharged, it may take a few minutes before the notification light
illuminates and the charging icon appears.
Battery notification light status
Green The battery is charging and the battery charge level is greater than 90%
Red The battery is charging and the battery charge level is less than 15%
