Installing a new SIM card
Depending on your country of residence, your Birth Alarm Lite may have been
supplied with a SIM card. If this is the case, the SIM card will already be in the
SIM card holder. If this is not the case, then you must purchase a SIM card
yourself.
Purchase a prepaid SIM card (or, if necessary, a SIM card with a cheap SIM-
only subscription) from your mobile specialist. You should preferably choose
a provider that you know offers good coverage in the location where you
want to use the Birth Alarm Lite.
Once you have purchased a SIM card, you need to activate it. You do this as
follows:
Insert the newly purchased SIM card into your own handset.
If your telephone asks for a PIN-code after being switched on, input the
code. The PIN will be stated in the booklet or on the letter supplied with
your SIM card. In most cases, the PIN is "0000".
Now attempt to make a call using the telephone. You may hear some
form of welcome message from your provider before the telephone
connects the call, because this is the first time you are using the SIM.
Listen to the message in full.
You must now check whether the voicemail for the SIM card is switched
off. You can do so by calling the number of the SIM card from another
telephone. If, after a while, you are transferred to a voicemail service, this
means that the voicemail for the SIM card is switched on. If this is the
case, you must personally deactivate the voicemail service by calling the
provider's customer services department, or by inputting a certain
deactivation code. The procedure for deactivating the voicemail service
differs for each provider and will be stated in the instructions for your
SIM card.
