Your SIM Card

Your SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card was supplied by your
Cellular Service Provider when you bought your phone. You will
not be able to make or receive calls if you do not have a SIM card
inserted in your phone.

A

Some networks allow you to make emergency calls without a
SIM card inserted.

The SIM card is a ‘Smart Card’ that contains your phone number,
service details and memory for storing Phone Book numbers and
messages. You can therefore use your SIM card in someone else’s
GSM phone and you will be charged for the call.

Like a bank or credit card, you should keep your SIM card secure.
Do not bend or scratch your card and avoid exposure to static
electricity or water.

! Switch off your phone before inserting or removing the

SIM card. Failure to do so may damage the memory on
your SIM card.

SIM Card Insertion/Removal

1 Switch off your phone by pressing and holding the

S key,

remove the battery cover and the battery.

2 Slide the SIM holder towards the right and lift up the left side

of the holder.

3 Remove the SIM card from the holder if necessary.

4 Insert the SIM card into the holder as shown. The SIM card

should be inserted with the notch at the top and facing
towards the base of the phone.

5 Replace the holder and press and slide it to the left to lock it

into place.

6 Replace the battery and battery cover.

If the SIM card is inserted the wrong way round, or damaged, the
Check Card message may be displayed. Remove the SIM card,
check that it is the right way round and then re-insert it into the
phone.

If either of the Bad Card See Supplier or Blocked See
Supplier messages are displayed, then you will need to contact
your Cellular Service Provider.
