card to avoid damaging it. Keep all SIM cards out of
reach of small children.

Warning: Do not bend or twist the back cover
excessively. Doing so may damage the cover.

► Carefully slide the SIM card into the SIM card

socket (as shown) until the card locks into place.

Make sure that the card’s gold contacts face into
the phone and that the angled corner of the card
is positioned as shown.

Caution: If the card is not inserted correctly, the

and USB cable) to charge your device from any
110/220 VAC outlet.

1. Insert the USB cable into the port.

2. Connect the USB cable to the charging head,
then plug the charging head into a standard
ACpower outlet.

When to Charge the Battery

When the battery is weak and only a few minutes of
talk time remain, the device sounds a warning tone
at regular intervals.

In this condition, your device conserves its
remaining battery power, not by turning off the back
light, but by entering the dimming mode.

When the battery level becomes too low, the device
automatically turns off.

► For a quick check of your battery level, locate

the battery charge indicator located in the upper­right corner of your device’s display. Solid color
(

) indicates a full charge.

You can also choose to display a percentage
value. Having a percentage value onscreen can
provide a better idea of the remaining charge on
the battery. For more information, see Battery.
