Welcome to BlackBerry!

Whether you plan to use your BlackBerry® device

for business or personal productivity, you have

made an excellent choice! With powerful push-

messaging, voice, web, and organizer features,

BlackBerry is the all-in-one solution that is

designed to keep you connected to the people,

data, and resources that you need every day.

To begin using your BlackBerry device, you must

set up and turn on the device, connect to the

wireless network, and set up your supported email

account. You can also choose to install the

BlackBerry Desktop Software so that you can

connect your device to your computer for data

synchronization and charging.

Take a moment to read this guide and any

documents provided by your service provider.

These resources provide important setup

information and are designed to help you get the

most from your BlackBerry device! Additional

resources are listed in the back of this guide.

Setting up your device

Insert the SIM card

Your SIM card contains important information

about your wireless service. Your SIM card might

be inserted already.

Warning: Turn off your device before you insert or

remove the SIM card. Do not scratch, bend, or

expose the SIM card to static electricity or wet

conditions.

1. Press the battery cover release button.

2. Slide off the battery cover.

3. If the battery is inserted, remove it.

4. Hold the SIM card with the metal contacts

facing down so that the notches on the card

align with the notches shown on your device.

5. Slide the SIM card into the holder so that it

lies flat below the metal guide.

6. Continue to slide the SIM card into the

holder until it stops. One end of the SIM card

should be slightly hidden below the plastic

casing on your device.

To remove the SIM card, press gently on the top of

the SIM card and slide it out of the holder.

Insert the battery

Warning: Use only the battery that Research In

Motion® specifies for use with your device. See

the Safety and Product Information booklet that

accompanied your device for more information

about using the battery safely.

1. Press the battery cover release button.

2. Slide off the battery cover.

3. Insert the battery so that the connectors on

the battery align with the connectors on your

device.

4. Replace the battery cover.

5. If the battery is charged, your device turns on

and the confirm date and time dialog box

appears.

•If the date and time are incorrect, click

Edit. See “Set the date and time” on

page 16 for more information.

•If the date and time are correct, click OK.

Charge the battery

1. Connect the small end of the USB cable to

your device.

2. If required, slide the plug blade attachment

into the power adapter.

3. Plug the power adapter into a power outlet.

4. Charge the battery to full power.

Note: If you install the BlackBerry Desktop

Software, you can charge your device by

connecting it to your computer. See “Can I charge

my device by connecting it to my computer?” on

page 19 for more information.

Connect to the wireless network

On the device, if the power is off, press the Power

button. Your device should connect to the wireless

network automatically.

To connect to the wireless network successfully,

your wireless service must be active, and you must

be in a wireless network coverage area. See the

wireless network coverage chart on the inside

front cover of this guide for more information.

When your device is not connected to the wireless

network, you can continue to use features that do

not require a connection to the wireless network.

For example, you can type and save draft email

messages, manage tasks, or use the calculator.
