SIM card and Battery

SIM card and Battery information.

SIM card

Your SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card contains a computer chip with your service details and phone numbers. Like a credit card, it should be kept securely and handled carefully. Do not bend, scratch or expose to moisture. Avoid static electricity. To avoid corrupting the memory of your SIM card, always switch off your phone before removing or inserting your SIM card

When you insert a new SIM card, your phone prompts you to select whether or not you wish to copy the SIM contents to the phone memory

% 40 Phonebook.

This is the Internet version of the user's guide. © Print only for private use.

Inserting the SIM card

1 Remove the battery cover and the battery.

2 Insert the SIM card into the holder.

3 Replace the battery and the cover.

To remove the SIM card

Follow steps 1-3 above removing the SIM card from the holder in step 2.

Getting started

Battery

Use only the Sony Ericsson-specified Z608 battery and charger. When supplied, your battery will not be fully charged.

Both the status bar within the battery icon in the display and the charging indicator (red) show the charging status. Charging (5 °C-45 °C) is complete when

Inserting the Battery

2 Align the claws on the battery terminal with

those of the phone and press battery down.

3 Align the claws at the side of the cover with

slots of the phone and slide back into place until the lock clicks.

appears. Full charging can take up to approximately 3 hours, but may vary depending on certain conditions (for example, if your phone is switched on or if temperature is outside the operating range). When your battery is completely empty, it can take some time until the battery icon appears during charging. As an energy-saving measure disconnect the charger from both the mains socket and the phone after charging. On exposure to high temperatures your battery may expand slightly. This has no influence on your safety/health and will reduce to its original size once re-exposed to a lower temperature.
