About inserting a SIM card

A SIM card stores important information about your wireless service. A SIM card might
already be inserted in your BlackBerry® device.

Insert a SIM card into your device in one of the following situations:

• Your wireless service provider provided you with a SIM card or it is included in the box

with your device.

• You are switching from one device that required a SIM card to another device. Remove

the SIM card from your previous device and insert it into your new BlackBerry device.
Depending on your wireless service provider, you might need a PIN code for the SIM
card. For more information, contact your wireless service provider.

For more information, see the Start Here poster.
