Section 1 Activating Your Phone When you subscribe to a cellular network, you are provided with a plug-in SIM card loaded with your subscription details, such as your PIN, any optional services available, and many others. Installing the SIM Card Important! The plug-in SIM card and its contacts can be easily damaged by scratching or bending, so be careful when handling, inserting, or removing the card. Keep all SIM cards out of reach of small children. If necessary, switch off the phone by holding down the key until the power-off image displays. 1. Remove the back cover. To do so, slide the back cover off in the direction of the arrow (1). 2. Lift the back cover away, as shown (2). 6
