Getting Started
This section explains how to start using your phone by first configuring your
hardware, activating your service, and then setting up your voice mail.
Setting Up Your Phone
When you subscribe to a cellular network, you receive a plug-in SIM
(Subscriber Identity Module) card loaded with your subscription details,
such as your PIN, and optional services you have selected.
Prior to using your phone it is necessary to install both the battery and SIM
into their corresponding internal compartments. The microSD card slot is
also located in this same internal area.
1. Remove the battery cover by placing your thumbnail into the slot at the
bottom of the phone (1) and lifting up.
2. Lift the cover away from the phone (2).
