INSERT THE SIM AND MEMORY CARDS

Insert the cards

1. Open the SIM card tray: push the tray opener pin in the tray hole and slide the tray out.

2. If you have a single-SIM phone, put a nano-SIM card in slot 1 and a memory card in slot 2

on the tray with the contact areas face down. If you have a dual-SIM phone, put a nano-SIM

card in slot 1 and either a second SIM or a memory card in slot 2 with the contact areas face

down.

3. Slide the tray back in.

Tip: To find out if your phone can use 2 SIM cards, see the label on the sales box. If there are

2 IMEI codes on the label, you have a dual-SIM phone.

Important: Do not remove the memory card when an app is using it. Doing so may damage

the memory card and the device and corrupt data stored on the card.

Tip: Use a fast, up to 512 GB microSD memory card from a well-known manufacturer.
