icon in the status bar at the top of the screen. If there are no

bars, or if it says “No service,” try moving to a different location. If you’re indoors, try
going outdoors or moving closer to a window.
Check to make sure you’re in an area with network coverage. Go to your carrier’s

website to see network coverage areas.
Make sure airplane mode isn’t on. From the Home screen choose Settings, then turn

airplane mode off. If that doesn’t work, turn airplane mode on, wait 15 seconds, then
turn airplane mode off again.
Turn iPhone off and back on again. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button on top of

iPhone for a few seconds until a red slider appears, then drag the slider. Then press
and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears. Tap Unlock and enter
your SIM’s PIN if the SIM is locked.

Important:

If you enter the PIN incorrectly three times, you may need to enter a

Personal Unlocking Key (PUK) to enable your SIM card again. Refer to the SIM card
documentation or contact your carrier.
There may be a problem with your wireless service. Call your carrier or go to your

carrier’s website.

turned off by default, you may not have access to the Internet when traveling abroad
unless you turn Data Roaming on. In Settings choose General > Network, then tap
Data Roaming.

Important:

Data roaming charges may apply when Data Roaming is on.
