Inserting Your SIM Card
Before you can make a call on your mobile phone, you must insert a SIM (Subscriber Identification Module) card.
You are given this card (1/2 in. by 1 in.) when you take out your subscription with a network operator. For more details about the SIM card, refer to the glossary on page 77.
☞NEVER touch the gold contacts on the chip, as you may damage the SIM card.
• If you do not insert the SIM card, the Check Card message is displayed when you switch the phone on.
•You can make emergency call while you have inserted a SIM card. (Some networks don’t require a SIM card for emergency calls. Check with your Air Time Provider.)
•If you wish to block access to the phone registers stored in the SIM card, see page 47.
