Your Phone’s SIM Card
Your i2000plus phone comes with a SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card
located in the “SIM Card Holder” on the back of the phone behind the battery.
You can verify that the SIM card is in place by viewing the numbers on the SIM
card through the SIM card holder.
NOTE: If there is no SIM card present, notify your Nextel Authorized
Representative immediately.
The SIM card maintains all of the stored names, numbers, and the PIN you enter
into your i2000plus phone. Your SIM card must be in place to make or receive
calls.
This section contains everything you need to know about your SIM card.
However, to quickly begin using your phone you can refer to “SIM Card
Personal Identification Number (PIN)” on page 10 and “Entering the PIN” on
page 10. Then, proceed to “Attaching the Battery” on page 8 and read the
remaining information at a later time.
SIM Card Personal Identification Number (PIN)
To prevent unauthorized use of your phone, your SIM is protected by a PIN.
Each time the i2000plus phone is turned on, a PIN must be entered. At any time,
you can change or disable your PIN if desired.
NOTE: Disabling your PIN enables anyone to use your phone. If you
disable your PIN, you still must keep the SIM card in the phone
to make calls.
Entering the PIN
By default, your phone is automatically set to ask for a
PIN.
NOTE: Your default SIM card PIN is: 0000. It is rec-
ommended that you change your PIN to
prevent fraudulent use of the SIM card
(see “Changing the PIN” on page 11).
If you enter an incorrect PIN, the message Wrong PIN appears. After three
consecutive incorrect attempts, even if you turn your phone off and on again, the
SIM card blocks any additional tries. If this happens, see “Unblocking the PIN”
on page 11.
