Assembly

To use your phone

1 Insert the SIM card and the battery. 2 Charge the battery. 3 Turn on your phone.

SIM card

When you register as a subscriber with a network operator, you get a SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card. The SIM card contains a computer chip that keeps track of items such as your phone number, the services included in your subscription, and names and numbers in your contacts.

Save contact information on your SIM card before removing it from another phone. Contacts may have been saved in the phone memory.

You may need a PIN (Personal Identity Number) for your SIM card to start your phone and activate services. When you enter your PIN, each digit appears as *, unless it starts with the same digits as an emergency number, for example 112. This allows for emergency calls without entering a PIN. Press to correct mistakes.

If you enter the wrong PIN three times in a row, PIN blocked appears. To unblock it, you need to enter your PUK (Personal Unblocking Key) % 73 SIM card lock.

Battery

Some functions use more battery power than others and may cause a need for more frequent re-charging. If talk time or standby time becomes noticeably shorter, you may have to replace the battery. Only use approved batteries from Sony Ericsson % 84 Battery.
