R. Oates (U.Warwick) and ***BA*** (***BA INSTITUTION***) report on behalf of the Swift/UVOT team: The Swift/UVOT began settled observations of the field of GRB 180216 4710 s after the BAT trigger (***Author*** et al., GCN Circ. ????). No optical afterglow consistent with the XRT position (D’Avanzo et al. GCN Circ. 22417) is detected in the initial UVOT exposures. Preliminary 3-sigma upper limits using the UVOT photometric system (Breeveld et al. 2011, AIP Conf. Proc. 1358, 373) for the initial exposures are: Filter T_start(s) T_stop(s) Exp(s) Mag white 4710 6704 387 >20.3 v 6915 7115 197 >18.8 b 6299 6499 197 >20.0 u 6094 12924 604 >19.5 w1 11600 12500 886 >20.5 m2 7120 10936 519 >20.6 w2 6710 6909 197 >20.6 The magnitudes in the table are not corrected for the Galactic extinction due to the reddening of E(B-V) = 21.16 in the direction of the burst (Schlegel et al. 1998).
