Taking off the back cover

There is a paper insole, which protrudes from the phone. This piece of paper will
help you with taking the back cover off the phone for the first time; you can dispose
of it afterwards. If you need to remove the back cover later when it is fully attached
to the phone, hook your fingernail into the opening slit located on the bottom right
edge of the phone and pull the back cover away from the device until you hear a
clicking. Move your finger around the phone through the little gap that has now
appeared and remove the back completely. The back cover fits the phone quite
tightly, so it may take some force to ptake it off.

Inserting SIM card, SD card, and battery

Position the phone in front of you in a way, that the screen and keypad of the phone
is facing downwards and the top of the phone (camera and SOS emergency button)
is pointing away from you. The rectangular hollow space which is meant for housing
a battery should now be in front of you.

Inserting SIM cards

The phone has two micro SIM card slots which are located in the lowest part of the
battery space. One on the right-hand side and one on the left-hand side. The right-
hand side SIM slot supports 4G.

The right-hand side SIM slot

In between of the two SIM card slots there is an indented space. Put the SIM card in
this space such, that the SIM card contacts are facing downwards, and its bevelled
edge is its upper right corner. Push on the SIM card lightly with a tip of your finger
and carefully slide it all the way to the right.

The left-hand side SIM slot

In between of the two SIM card slots there is an indented space. Put the SIM card in
this space such, that the SIM card contacts are facing downwards, and its bevelled
edge is its lower left corner. Push on the SIM card lightly with a tip of your finger and
carefully slide it all the way to the left.

Removing a SIM card

To remove a SIM card from a SIM card slot place a tip of your finger on the edge of
the SIM card, push down on it and slide your finger with the SIM card towards the
space in between of the SIM card slots.
