1.2 About the SIM Card and Battery
Always turn off your device before installing/replacing the battery and SIM card. Follow the

provided by your local network service provider and to install the battery.
The SIM card contains your phone number, service details, and phonebook/message
memory. Your device supports both 1.8V and 3V SIM cards. Some legacy SIM cards will not
function within your device. You should consult with your service provider for a replacement
SIM card. There may be fees for this service.
Your device contains a rechargeable Li-ion polymer battery. This device is designed to use
only manufacturer-specified original batteries and accessories. Battery performance depends
on many factors, including your wireless service provider’s network configuration, signal
strength, the temperature of the environment in which you operate your device, the features
and/or settings you select and use, items attached to connecting ports, and your voice, data,
and other program usage patterns.
