Insert the SIM card

Read on to learn how to insert your SIM card into your phone.

Important:

This device is designed to be used with a mini-UICC SIM card, also known as a micro-SIM card only. A micro-SIM card is smaller than the standard SIM card. Use of incompatible SIM cards may damage the card or the device, and may corrupt data stored on the card.

Note:

Switch the device off and disconnect the charger and any other device before removing any covers. Avoid touching electronic components while changing any covers. Always store and use the device with any covers attached.

Make sure the phone is switched off.

  1. At a top corner of the phone, put your thumbnail in the seam between the screen frame and the back cover. Bend the cover until a side seam opens slightly.

  2. Repeat on the other corner, and remove the cover.

    With the front of the phone facing you, first place your thumbnail on the top right corner of the phone to open the cover slightly. Then move your thumbnail to the top left corner of the phone to open the cover fully.

  3. If the battery is in, lift it out.

    When removing the battery, lift the side of the battery that is closer to the top edge of the phone.

  4. Push the SIM into the card slot until it locks into place. Make sure the contact area is face down.

    With the back of the phone facing you, from top to bottom, the card slot is the first one on the right edge of the battery compartment. When inserting the card, make sure the missing corner is closer to the top right corner of the phone.

  5. Line up the battery contacts, and replace the battery.

    The battery contacts are at the bottom right of the battery and the battery compartment.

  6. Press the bottom edge of the back cover against the bottom edge of the phone.

    First replace the bottom edge of the cover, then the top edge.

  7. Press the back of the cover until it snaps into place.
