Card may have already been inserted into your phone. If it is not in your phone
or your box, please return to the shop that you bought the phone from and ask
for a SIM Card.
2 Remove the SIM Card from its plastic surround by carefully pushing it out.
Its contacts are easily damaged so take care when doing this and try to
avoid touching them.
