SIM card
The SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card, which you
get from your network operator, contains information
about your subscription. Always turn off your phone
and detach the charger before you insert or remove
the SIM card.
PIN code (SIM card lock)
The PIN (Personal Identification Number) code is a SIM card
lock that protects your subscription, but not the phone itself.
If the card is locked, you have to enter the PIN code when you
turn on your phone. Each PIN digit appears as *, unless it
starts with emergency number digits, for example, 112 or 911.
You can call an emergency number without entering a PIN.
You can save contacts on the SIM card before removing
if from your phone. Contacts may also be saved in the
phone memory. See Contacts on page 18.
If you enter the wrong PIN three times in a row, the following
message appears:
PIN blocked. To unblock, enter your
PUK code provided by your network operator.
To unblock your SIM card, see Locks on page 42
