by pushing it in the direction marked “Open” and in-
sert the SIM. Then click the SIM card cover down so
that it is firmly closed. Now insert the battery (which is
stored stored separately in the shipping box).
Replace the back cover by sliding it gently upwards
onto the device. Now push the power button on the top
of the device. The screen will light up and the GSMK
CryptoPhone G10 begins its firmware initialization.
This may take up to two minutes.
Enter your PIN
Most GSM SIM cards require you to enter a PIN num-
ber. After you have switched on the CryptoPhone, you
will be asked to enter your PIN. After you entered the
PIN, press the “Done” button. The CryptoPhone will
finish initialization and provide the secure telephony
mode. If your GSM SIM does not require a PIN, the
secure telephony mode will be enabled right away. We
recommend that a PIN number is used to enhance
individual security.
Charging
Before using your CryptoPhone, we recommend that
you charge the battery until full. In order to do this, you
must connect the power supply to the CryptoPhone.

sive scientific effort (several months of analysis at the
cost of several 100.000 Euros per device). If in doubt
and your security depends on it, consider purchasing a
fresh unit.
The CryptoPhone is specified and designed for use in
normal business, home and other general conditions.
It is not reinforced or specially sealed against water and
other harsh environmental conditions. (For reinforced
versions of the CryptoPhone that comply with military
specifications, contact us at [email protected]).
Submitting the CryptoPhone to excessively high or low
temperatures (like in the outside pocket of an overcoat
in cold climates) might temporarily or permanently
damage the display and lead to accelerated battery ag-
ing, affecting the ability of the battery to store power
and thereby reducing the standby time of your Crypto-
Phone. Sitting on the CryptoPhone or submitting the
device to other heavy mechanical loads may damage
parts of the phone, especially the keyboard. Damage to
the keyboard, battery and display as well as any kind of
other mechanical damage is not covered by the war-
ranty.
Repairs
Because of the manipulation risk, we do not take back
any CryptoPhones from customers, except for repairs.
