Section 1: 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.
Activating Your Phone
When you subscribe to a cellular network, you are provided with a plug-in SIM card loaded with your subscription
details, such as your PIN, available optional services, and many other features.
Installing the SIM Card
Important!:
The plug-in SIM card and its contacts information can be easily damaged by scratching or bending, so be careful when
handling, inserting, or removing the card. Keep all SIM cards out of reach of small children.
1.
If necessary, switch off the phone by holding down the
key until the power-off image displays.
2.
Remove the battery cover by pressing the battery lock down until you hear a click sound (as indicated).
3.
Carefully lift the battery cover away from the bottom of the phone.
