Activating your phone

Installing the SIM card and installing the battery

Switch off your phone and disconnect the charger.

The SIM card is inserted beneath the phone’s battery.

Slide the SIM card, with cut corner as

shown on the phone, into the card holder with fold face down.

Place the battery by first inserting the

Activating your phone

Charging the battery

Your phone is powered by a rechargeable battery. A new battery must be charged for at least 4 hours before being used for the first time. It reaches its optimum capacity after a few cycles of use. When your battery has been discharged, the phone displays the state (empty battery icon

for at least 15 minutes before making any more calls so as to avoid being cut off mid-call.

To recharge the battery

Connect the charger to a mains socket. Plug the end of the cable into the connector at the base of the phone. The phone starts to charge up. Charging stops by itself. Disconnect the cable.

flashes). In this case recharge your battery

Activating your phone

It is possible that the battery may heat up slightly during charging; this phenomenon is normal.

WARNING

There is danger of explosion if the battery is placed in an incorrectly way or if it is exposed to fire. Do not short circuit it. The battery does not have any part that you can change. Do not try to open the battery casing. Use only the appropriate chargers and batteries as shown in the phone manufacturer's catalogue. The use of other types of chargers or batteries may be dangerous or invalidate the warranty. Used batteries must be disposed of in the appropriate places. We advise you to take the battery out if you plan not to use the phone for extended periods. You are strongly advised not to connect your phone to the charger if it doesn’t contain a battery. The charger is a safety step-down transformer, it is forbidden to modify, alter or replace it by another component (power supply plug, etc). If the battery has entirely discharged, the phone cannot start. Plug the phone to the charger. The phone will switch on after a few minutes of charge. You can use the phone again when the Start option is displayed on the screen.

Activating your phone

Do NOT obstruct the antenna with your fingers

The antenna is integrated in your phone, under the back cover at the top. Avoid putting your fingers on this area when the phone is switched ON. If your fingers obstruct the antenna, the phone may have to operate with a higher power level than usual; decreasing its efficiency quickly. It could also affect the quality of your communications.

Getting started

You are now ready to use your phone for the first time.

Switch on the phone by pressing the key. A short display appears.

to accept.

Activating your phone

If your phone indicates that the SIM is missing, press the key to switch off your phone and check that the SIM card is correctly installed.

WARNING

If a wrong PIN number is entered three times in succession, your SIM card is blocked. You must then:

- Enter the PUK (Personal Unblocking Key) code provided by

your operator, and accept.

- Enter your PIN number and accept.

- Enter your PIN number again and accept.

After 5 or 10 failed attempts (depending on the type of SIM card), the SIM card is definitely locked. You must then contact your operator or your SMC to obtain a new card.

Setting time and date

When you use your phone for the first time, you need to set the date and time. In due course, when the battery is completely discharged, or if it has been removed, you will be prompted systematically to confirm date and time.

Setting the date

Set the date by entering it directly in numerical form or by using the
