8 Basics

Bottom cover

Removing the back cover

Remove the back cover to access the battery compartment and SIM card slot.

With the phone turned off, hold your phone securely with the front facing down.

With your thumb or finger, lift up the back cover from the small notch at the top of the

phone.

Replacing the back cover

Secure the bottom part of the back cover first by aligning the tabs on the back cover

into the openings located inside the battery compartment.

Press the sides and the top part of the back cover down to lock the cover into place.

You will hear a click when the back cover is locked in place.

9 Basics

SIM card

The SIM card contains your phone number, service details, and phonebook/message

memory. Your phone supports both 1.8V and 3 V SIM cards.

Some legacy SIM cards may not function with your phone. You should consult with your mobile

operator for a replacement SIM card. There may be fees for this service.

Inserting the SIM card

Take the back cover off. See “Removing the back cover.”

Take the battery out. See “Battery.”

Insert the SIM card with its gold contacts facing down and its cut-off corner facing out.

Slide the SIM card all the way in.

Removing the SIM card

Take the back cover off. See “Removing the back cover.”

Take the battery out. See “Battery.”

Press down on the SIM card with your finger and slide the SIM card out.

10 Basics

Battery

Your phone uses a rechargeable battery. Please use only original batteries and accessories

that came with your phone or replacements that we recommend.

How long the battery can last before it needs recharging depends on how you use your

phone. Among these are the phone features and accessories you use (for example, leaving

your Bluetooth connection always on uses more power). Long phone calls and frequent web

browsing use up much battery power. Also, consider your location: poor signal strength from

your mobile network and extreme temperature make the battery work harder.

Inserting the battery

Remove the back cover. See “Removing the back cover.”

Insert the battery with its exposed copper contacts into the phone first—make sure

that the ribbon strip extends out of the battery case to make it easy to remove the

battery!

The exposed copper contacts should be on the left when you insert the battery.

Gently push the battery into place.

Removing the battery

Make sure the phone is turned off.

Take the back cover off. See “Removing the back cover.”

Pull the ribbon strip upward to release the battery.
