Preparing Your Phone for Use

5

You need to do the following to use your phone:

insert the SIM card

attach the battery to the phone

charge the battery

When you register as a subscriber with a network operator, you get a SIM

(Subscriber Identity Module) card. The SIM card contains a computer chip

that keeps track of your phone number, the services included in your

subscription, and your Phone Book information, among other things.

SIM cards come in two sizes. One is the size of a credit card and the other is

smaller. Your phone uses the smaller card. Many credit card-sized SIM cards

have a perforated smaller card that you can take out easily. Before you can use

your phone, you must insert the SIM card as shown below.

Inserting and Removing the SIM Card

1.

Remove the battery if
attached. Slide the SIM card
into the slot, under the silver
colored holders, with the
golden connectors facing
down and the cut corner to
the right.

2.

Raise the edge of the SIM card
and slide it out.

The PIN

Most SIM cards are supplied with a security code, also known as PIN

(Personal Identity Number), which you need to access the network.

Every time you turn on your phone, you are asked to enter your PIN. You will

find your PIN in the information from your operator.

Some operators may have services that require a second PIN, your PIN2.

You should be careful with your PIN, since it is your protection against

unauthorized use of your subscription.
