This is obtained from the network operator. The services included in your subscription depend on your choice of operator and/or subscription. Therefore, some of the services and functions described in this manual may not be accessible to you. If you want a complete list of the services included in your subscription, please contact your network operator. system is best at the time. This is taken care of by the networks. However, you should note that the functions offered and the network coverage differ depending on your choice of operator and/or subscription. B A SIM & PIN You will obtain a SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card with your subscription. The SIM card contains a computer chip that keeps track of your phone number, the services you have ordered from your network operator and your Phone Book information, among other things. Your SIM card is supplied with a security code or PIN (Personal Identity Number), which you need in order to gain access to the network. Your PIN may also be required when you want to change settings in your phone. Furthermore, some operators may have ser-vices that require a second PIN, your PIN2. You will find your PIN (and PIN2) in the information from your operator. Every time you turn on your phone, it prompts you to enter your PIN. If the PIN is entered incorrectly three times in a row, the SIM card will be blocked. If this happens you can unlock it by using your PUK (Personal Unblocking Key code), which you also get from your operator. You should be careful with your PIN, since it is your protection against unauthorized use of your phone and subscription. The Ericsson SH 888 is a dual band phone, which means that you can use your phone in two different kinds of networks ­ the GSM 900 and the GSM 1800 (also called PCN or DCS 1800) systems. The GSM 1800 system is practically the same as the GSM 900 system. The difference between the two is that they use different frequencies. GSM 900 uses 900 MHz frequency, whereas GSM 1800 uses 1800 MHz. A dual band phone that combines the two standards can use both frequencies. This considerably increases capacity in densely populated urban areas, and consequently improves the coverage offered by your network operator. It will also offer you enhanced international roaming, thanks to the additional networks now available when you are out travelling. The switching between the two systems is done automatically and seamlessly, which means that you can use your phone without ever having to consider which Press to enter the menu system.

One is the size of a credit card, and the other is considerably smaller (about the size of a regular stamp). The SH 888 uses the smaller card.
