About Your Phone, Battery and SIM Card 17 English
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.
ASome 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
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.
