Getting Started
What is a SIM card?
Every mobile telephone requires an SIM
card (Subscriber Identity Module);
without the SIM card, you cannot make
phone calls. The SIM card is a
microprocessor that saves your data and
contacts. Therefore, handle the card with
care and exercise caution when inserting
or removing the card. Keep the SIM cards
out of reach of small children.
Inserting the SIM card and Micro
SD card
1. The telephone must be switched off
and disconnected from the charger.
2. To remove the battery cover on the
back, use your thumb nail to press
the battery cover on the lower
left-hand side

13
Should the battery be in the device,
please remove it.
1. Two card holders are available: the
left one for the SIM card and the right
one for the Micro SD card
2. Slide the SIM card carefully into the
SIM card slot.
3. Make sure that the gold-colored
contacts on the card are facing
downwards and the tapered corner is
facing left.
4. Slide the holder down to unlock it.

14
5. Open the holder and gently insert the
Micro SD card into the Micro SD card
holder.
6. Close the holder and push it up to lock
in place.
Inserting the Battery
1. Align the gold-colored contacts of the
battery with the corresponding
contacts of the phone.
2. Press the other end of the battery
until it snaps into place.
3. Push the battery cover up on the
device until it clicks into place.
Charging the Battery

SL160 battery:

1. Insert the charger connector into the
telephone.
2. Connect the charger to a power
outlet.
3. The battery can take
several hours to charge.
If the telephone is
charged while it is
switched off, it takes a
few seconds before the charging
indicator appears in the display.

switched on, the battery indicator
begins to go up. The battery is fully
charged when the battery indicator no
longer goes up.

5. Disconnect the charger from the
network and from the device when it
is no longer needed!
Note: The initial charging of the battery
should take at least 12 hours.
Switching the telephone on/off:
Make sure that the SIM card is in the
telephone and that the battery is
charged.
1. Press and hold the red key for
2-3 seconds in order to switch on the
telephone.

will now ask for your PIN code,
please enter it and confirm with
OK (left menu key).

confirm with OK (left menu key).
Press and hold the red key for
2-3 seconds in order to switch off
the telephone.
