Introduction

Before your first call
The SIM card
To use your phone, you must insert a valid SIM card for your GSM
subscription.
This card contains your telephone number. It also has memory to store the
phone numbers and messages you wish to retain. If you use this card on
another phone, you still have the same phone number, stored numbers and
messages.
PIN and PUK codes
The PIN code is a secret code in your SIM card to protect it from abusive
use. If you or anyone else enters a wrong PIN code 3 times, your SIM card is
blocked. To unblock it, you must request the PUK code from your Network
Operator.
Read the safety instructions in the
Precautions section before use.

You can send text messages (SMS) to other GSM phones and receive
messages on your phone. There are standard messages and you can
compose a new one. You can attach an "emotion icon" and/or a ringer
melody that you can create (see page 27) or download from Internet (see
page 28). The receiver must have a Philips mobile phone that supports this
feature to see the icon and/or hear the melody sent. Otherwise, he will not
hear the melody and the emotion icon will be replaced by its equivalent
translation code at the end of the message received (connect to Philips web
site : www.pcc.philips.com to have a list of the Philips phones supporting the
feature).
Note that the text length for the message would be less than 160 characters
when you attach an emotion icon.
To send messages, you must first enter a service centre number. If this is not
stored in your SIM card, ask your operator for it.
