1. Getting Started

Please read through the safety instructions in the “Precautions” section before use (please see page 57).
Before you start using your phone, you must insert a valid SIM card supplied by your GSM operator or retailer. The SIM card contains your subscription information, your mobile telephone number, and a small quantity of memory in which you can store phone numbers and messages (for more information, see “Contacts” on page 43).

Insert the SIM card

Press down the latch (1) and then lift up the door of the battery compartment (2).
To remove the battery, press down the latch (1) and lift up the battery (2).
If your SIM card is delivered in a credit-card size, remove it from its holder and insert it under the metal clip holder, until it stops. Make sure that the clipped corner of the card is in the correct corner and that the gold contacts are facing down.
Getting Started 1
Slide the battery back into the compartment with metallic connectors downwards, until it stops. Then lock it by pushing it downwards.
more information on PIN codes, see “Security” on page 53.
If you enter an incorrect PIN code 3 times, your SIM card will be blocked. To unblock it, you must request the PUK code from your operator.

Charging the battery via USB

Replace the back cover by pushing it down into its slots, until it stops.
Remove the protective film covering the screen and the camera lens before using the phone.
Your phone is powered by a rechargeable battery. A new battery is partially charged and an alarm will warn you when the battery level is low. Once the battery and the batter cover are clipped on the phone you can charge the phone. Pull away the protective rubber cap covering the charger connector (it is attached to the phone so that you cannot lost it). Plug in the connector as shown below. Then plug it into a main AC power socket.

Switching on the phone

To switch on the phone, long press the key. Enter the PIN code if required (i.e. the 4- to 8-digit secret code of your SIM card). It is preconfigured and communicated to you by your operator or retailer. For
2 Getting Started
The battery symbol indicates the state of charge. During charging, the three charge indicators scroll; the maximum charge time for empty battery is 3 hours for a standard charger. When all three bars are steady, the battery is fully charged. You can then disconnect the charger. Depending on the network and condition of use, talk time goes up to 4 hours and stand-by time up to 300 hours. Keeping the charger plugged to the mobile when the battery is fully charged will not damage the battery. The only way to turn off the charger is to unplug it., so use an easily accessible AC power socket.
You may lose all your personal settings if you remove the battery when the phone is switched on.

Copying the contents of your SIM

If you are transferring your SIM card from another phone, you may want to copy the contents of your SIM phonebook to your Philips 960 mobile phone. To do so, proceed as follows:
1.
From the Home screen, press and select
Contacts.
2.
To copy all contacts, select Advanced. Then select Copy to Phone. A message "Copy all
entries to phone? " appears. Press Yes to
proceed or No to cancel.
3.
To copy only one entry, from the home screen, press and select Contacts. Then select View contacts. Browse in the contacts list to select one of the entries and press options to select Copy contact to phone. A message "Copy entry to phone? " appears. Press Yes to proceed or No to cancel.
For more information on managing your phonebooks, please see “Contacts” on page 43.

sentence is in upper case, the rest in lower case. If you insert a period, the first word of the new sentence will be in upper case.
