Phone’s phonebook

Your mobile phone only manages one phonebook at a time and will ignore the information relative to the other one: e.g., if «Smith» is present in both phonebooks and if you delete it in the phone, it remains unchanged in the SIM.

The default selected phonebook is the one located in your phone. It can hold up to 299 names and can be reset at

once using the Delete all option. Depending on SIM card capacity, names added to this phonebook can then be copied into the SIM phonebook (see “Copy of the SIM phonebook” page 8).
