number, service details, and memory for storing phonebook contacts and/or text

card to not fit properly or damage the card slot.
1. Make sure HTC Desire 610 is off and hold it securely with the front facing down.
2. Open the slot cover with your thumb or finger.
3. In the top slot, insert a nano SIM card with its gold contacts facing up and its
cut-off corner facing in, and then push it until it clicks in place.

until it clicks into place.
