Installing the SIM card and battery
Before you can make a phone call using your P750, you need to install a Subscriber
Identity Module (SIM) card. The SIM card contains your phone number, subscriber details,
phonebook, and additional phone memory.
Your P750 comes with a rechargeable Lithium-Ion battery.
New batteries come partially discharged and should be fully charged before using them. They
generally do not reach their rated capacity until they have been charged and discharged at
least four (4) times. We recommend that new batteries be charged overnight even though
they may indicate that the charge is complete after a few hours. Sometimes charging may
stop during the initial charge and it is necessary to remove the battery for approximately
fteen (15) minutes and then recharge it.
Getting your device ready
1. Remove the battery compartment cover.
CAUTION:
Use only an ASUS qualied battery.
To install a SIM card and battery:

2. Remove the battery.
3. Insert the SIM card with its gold

corner oriented to the lower right

properly aligned to the copper
conductor on the device.

using for the rst time.

is charging.
