microSIM card

HTC One mini uses a microSIM card. The microSIM card contains your phone number,

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

Inserting the SIM card

Use a standard microSIM only. Inserting other types (such as nanoSIM with an

adapter or a modified SIM) 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 SIM eject tool (or a small bent paperclip) into the small hole

next to the SIM card tray slot.

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

4. Pull the SIM card tray out, and place the SIM card (contacts facing down) into

the tray.

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

8 Unboxing

Removing the SIM card

Make sure to switch off HTC One mini before removing your SIM card.

1. Hold the phone face up and the top panel facing you.

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

next to the SIM card tray slot.

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

4. Pull the SIM card tray out, and remove the SIM card.

After removing the SIM card, make sure that you insert the empty SIM card tray back

into the slot.
