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.
