The SIM card contains a computer chip that keeps track of your phone number, the services included in your subscription, and your Phone Book information, among other things. Inserting the SIM Card 1. Remove the battery (if attached). Preparing Your Phone for Use You need to do the following to use your phone: · insert the SIM card · attach the battery to the phone · charge the battery SIM cards come in two sizes. One is the size of a credit card, and the other is smaller. Your phone uses the smaller card. Many credit cardsized SIM cards have a perforated smaller card that you can take out easily. Before you can use your phone, you must insert the SIM card as shown below. 2. Slide the SIM card down into the SIM card slot with the golden connectors facing down and the cut corner turned to the left. 5 Removing the SIM Card Er ics No so t fo nM r ob Com ile me Co rci mm al un Use ica tio ns AB 1. Remove the battery (if attached). 2. Lift the top of the SIM card and push the card out of the slot. Some operators may have services that require a second PIN, your PIN2. You should be careful with your PIN, since it is your protection against unauthorized use of your subscription. 6 Preparing Your Phone for Use The PIN Most SIM cards are supplied with a security code or PIN (Personal Identity Number), which you need to access the network. Every time you turn on your phone, it prompts you to enter your PIN. You will find your PIN in the information from your operator. If your PIN is entered incorrectly three times in a row, the SIM card is blocked. If this happens, you can unlock it by using your PUK (Personal Unblocking Key code), which you also get from your operator. The Battery Er ics No so t fo nM r ob Com ile me Co rci mm al un Use ica tio ns AB Attaching the Battery to your Phone · Place the battery on the back of the phone and push until you hear a click. Preparing Your Phone for Use Your phone comes with a nickel metal hydride (NiMH) battery. The battery is not charged when you buy your phone, but there may be enough power to turn the phone on. We recommend that you charge the battery before you use the phone for the first time. When to Charge the Battery The nickel metal hydride battery that comes with your phone can be charged whenever you wish, without affecting its performance. This is not the case with the cheaper nickel cadmium type batteries, often sold as accessories by other suppliers. For the best talk and standby time in the long run, we recommend that you use only Ericsson original batteries with your phone. To remind you that you will soon need to charge the battery or replace it with a charged one: · an alarm signal (a long beep) sounds and the message Battery low appears for ten seconds in the display ­ the signal is repeated several times, · the indicator light on the top of the phone starts flashing red. Note! The phone turns itself off when the battery can no longer power it satisfactorily. 7 Charging the Battery Er ics No so t fo nM r ob Com ile me Co rci mm al un Use ica tio ns AB 1. Make sure that the battery is attached to the phone. 2. Connect the charger to the mains. To indicate charging: · the battery meter in the display pulses continuously, · the indicator on the top of the phone shows a steady red light (or green, if the phone is turned on). When the battery is fully charged, the battery meter in the display is full and the indicator on the top of the phone shows a steady green light. Tip! You can use the phone while the battery is being charged. However, this increases the charging time. Disconnecting the Charger · Bend the plug connected to the phone upwards and pull it out. 8 Preparing Your Phone for Use 3. Connect the charger to the phone as shown in the picture. The flash symbol on the plug must face upwards. Removing the Battery Er ics No so t fo nM r ob Com ile me Co rci mm al un Use ica tio ns AB 1. Turn off the phone. 2. Press the catch on the bottom of the battery. 3. Lift the battery up and away from the phone. Changing the Front Panel 1. 3. 2. 4. 1. Lift the bottom end of the front panel. 2. Remove the panel. 3.

Press YE S . Note! If your PIN is entered incorrectly three times in a row, the SIM card is blocked. You can unblock it by using your PUK, see "Security for Your Phone and Subscription" on page 47. Network Search After you have turned on the phone (and entered your PIN), the Ericsson logo appears in the display and the phone searches for a network. When a network is found, the phone beeps three times. The indicator light on the top of the phone flashes green once every second and your network operator's name (in most cases abbreviated) appears in the display. This is called standby mode. You can now make and receive calls.
