Overview of the telephone

SIM card
Your telephone requires a SIM (Subscriber
Identity Module) card, which you will be
given by your service provider.
The following information is stored on it:
>
Your phone number
>
The GSM networks available to you
>
Various access codes
>
All the services included in your
contract.
Your SIM card in addition has a memory for
an electronic phone book and for
messages that you can send or receive.
Use only 3.3 V SIM cards. The phone
will not work with other SIM cards.
<
In the event of loss, have your SIM
card blocked immediately. Your
service provider can be reached at any time
of the day or night so that you can do this.
Any person who knows or is able to read
out the codes stored on it will be able to
use your card without restriction and there-
fore incur costs at your expense. It is there-
fore important that you keep your SIM card
in a safe place to prevent misuse.
<
Protect the SIM card against damage,
static electricity and moisture, to
ensure that it remains operational and the
memorised data are not lost.
<
If you use a TWIN card in your phone,
it is vital to ensure that the other TWIN
card is not used simultaneously and logged
in. The correct functioning of the phone
cannot otherwise be assured.
<
PIN, PIN2 and PUK
Your SIM card is protected against misuse
by a PIN (Personal Identification Number),
which comprises between four and eight
digits.
The cards supplied by some service
providers also contain a PIN2, with
which you can grant other users limited
access rights, see page 182.
<
Your card is blocked if you enter an incor-
rect PIN three times in succession.
To unblock the card, you require the PUK
(Pin Unblocking Key), which comprises
between four and eight digits. After you
have entered the PUK, you can select a
new PIN.
If you enter an incorrect PUK ten times in
succession, your card is permanently
blocked. In this case, contact your service
provider.
You will receive your PIN and PUK from
your service provider in a sealed envelope
together with the SIM card.
For details of how to enter the PIN and PUK
for your SIM card, see page 181.
