nano SIM card

HTC One mini 2 uses a nano SIM card. The nano SIM card contains your phone

number, service details, and memory for storing phonebook contacts and/or text

messages.

Inserting the nano SIM card

Use a standard nano SIM card only. Inserting a modified card may cause the card to

not fit properly or damage the card slot.

1. Hold the phone face up.

2. Insert the tip of the tray eject tool (or a small bent paperclip) into the tray eject

hole next to the nano SIM card tray slot.

3. Push the tip all the way into the hole until the nano SIM card tray ejects.

4. Pull the nano SIM card tray out, and place the nano SIM card (contacts facing

down) into the tray.

5. Insert the nano SIM card tray back into the slot.
