Inserting a SIM card into the SIM holder
FOX3-2G/3G/4G devices have a GSM modem that requires a SIM card to access to the mobile
network services. The SIM card is obtained from your mobile provider and must be activated for
GSM data services before using it. Together with the SIM card, you receive a 4-digit PIN number.
Entering of the PIN allows your device to access the mobile network.
To insert the SIM card into the FOX3-2G/3G/4G' SIM holder, follow the steps below:
1)
Remove the power supply and any other connections from the device. Turn the FOX3-
2G/3G/4G devices on their back side as shown in the figure 14 below.
2)
Indicate the SIM card holder on the left of the battery try
(1)
. To open it, push the metal
slider in
direction marked “
OPEN
”.
3)
Flip the card holder up
(2)
.
4)
Insert the SIM card
