The SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card, which you get from your network operator,  
contains information about your subscription. Always turn off your phone and detach the  
charger before you insert or remove the SIM card.

PIN  
You may need a PIN (Personal Identification Number) to activate the services and functions  
in your phone. Your PIN is supplied by your network operator. Each PIN digit appears as  
*, unless it starts with emergency number digits, for example, 112 or 911. You can see and  
call an emergency number without entering a PIN.  
If you enter the wrong PIN three times in a row, the SIM card is blocked. See SIM card lock on  
page 48.  
Standby  
After you have turned on your phone and entered your PIN, the name of the network  
operator appears. This view is called standby. Your phone is now ready for use.
