Get started
Insert a SIM card
Before you start using your phone, you may
need to insert your Micro SIM card. If no card
is installed, the message “No SIM card” ap-
pears on the phone’s lock screen.
Eject
button
aperture

GET STARTED 3
The SIM card tray is located on the left side
of the phone below the volume button. The
eject button is a small hole just above the
tray door. To install a new Micro SIM card:
1. Insert the SIM ejection tool that comes
with the phone (or a thin pin) into the eject
button hole, and push rmly but gently un-
til the tray pops out.
2. Remove the tray and place the micro SIM
card inside it, with the contacts out and
the angled corner to the right. There is
only one possible way to t the card snug-
ly into the tray.
3. Carefully reposition the tray in the slot
and push it gently back into the phone.
TIP: Your phone’s IMEI identication
number is on the SIM card tray. You
may need this number later to identify
your phone for service purposes. Write
down the IMEI number or take a photo
of the label on the product box.

Charge the battery
Your battery will not be fully charged when
you rst unpack your Nexus 4. It’s a good
idea to fully charge the battery as soon as
you get a chance.
If you’re using the travel adapter that comes
with the phone, connect one end of the data
cable to the charger port at the bottom of
the phone, and the other end to the travel
adapter. Then connect the travel adapter to
a power outlet.

GET STARTED 5
• The travel adapter varies by country
or region.
• Use only the travel adapter and Mi-
cro USB cable that come with your
Nexus 4. Using a different travel
adapter or cable may damage your
phone.
• The input voltage range between
the wall outlet and this travel adapt-
er is AC 100V–240V, and the travel
adapter’s output voltage is DC 5V,
2A.
• Charging your phone through a USB
cable attached to another device,
such as a laptop computer, takes
longer than charging with a travel
adapter.
• Nexus 4’s battery can’t be removed.
Don’t attempt to open the phone.

GET STARTED 6
IMPORTANT: If you use a wireless char-
ger, you must use an approved model
and only as directed. The Nexus 4 trav-
el adapter may not generate enough
current to power a wireless charger.
DO NOT throw the battery in
municipal waste. The symbol
of the crossed out wheeled
bin indicates that the battery
should not be placed in mu-
nicipal waste.
Set up your phone
The rst time you turn on the phone, you’ll
see a Welcome screen.
• To choose a different language, touch the
menu.
• To continue, touch Start and follow the
instructions.
When prompted, sign in using the email ad-

dress and password for your Google Ac-
count. If you don’t have one yet, create one.
An email address that you use for any of the
following counts as a Google Account:
• Gmail
• YouTube
• Google Apps
• AdWords
• Any other Google product
When you sign in with a Google Account, all
the email, contacts, Calendar events, and
other data associated with that account are
automatically synced with your phone.
If you have multiple Google Accounts, you
can add the others later.
Get around
Every Home screen shows the Favorites tray:
another quick way to get to your apps:

GET STARTED 8
At the bottom of every Nexus 4 screen, no
matter what you’re doing, you’ll always nd
these three navigation buttons:
Back
Opens the previous screen you
were working in, even if it was in
a different app. Once you back
up to the Home screen, you
can’t go back any further in your
history.
Home
Opens Home. If you’re view-
ing a left or right Home screen,
opens the central Home screen.
To open Google Now, swipe up.
Google Now gives just what you
need to know, right when you
need it.

GET STARTED 9
Recent apps
Opens a list of thumbnail images
of apps you’ve worked with re-
cently. To open an app, touch it.
To remove a thumbnail from the
list, swipe it left or right.
If you don’t use these buttons often, they
may shrink to dots or fade away, depending
on the current app. To bring them back, touch
their location.
Settings
On the All Apps screen avail-
able from the Favorites tray,
notice the Settings icon. This
brings you to the Settings
screens for your phone, where
you can adjust things like net-
work, sound, and account set-
tings, among many others.

TIP: You can use Quick Settings to tog-
gle Wi-Fi, change display brightness,
and more. To open Quick Settings,

top of any screen. Or, swipe down with
one nger to pull down the notication
shade, and touch the Quick Settings
icon at the top right.
At the top of the screen you’ll nd Google
Search, which lets you search your phone
