About Your Phone, Battery and SIM Card 20
Your SIM Card
Your SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card
was supplied by your Cellular Service
Provider when you bought your phone.
You cannot make or receive calls if you do
not have a SIM card 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 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.
