2 CONCEPTS
Provider:
‘Provider’ is another name for
‘Telephone Company’.
The documentation accompa-
nying the SIM or the SIM card
itself will show through which
provider you’re calling.
SIM card:
A SIM (‘Subscriber Identity Mod-
ule’) is a small card containing a
chip. The number is programmed
in this chip and it also allows you
to store several numbers and
messages, so you can take this
information with you when you
install the SIM card into another
phone.

6
SIM cards are provider-specific.
Ask your provider for a regular
size SIM card. The smaller Mini
SIM and Micro SIM variants will
not fit in this phone
SIM-LOCK-free:
This phone is SIM-LOCK-
FREE. This means the phone
is not bound to SIM cards of a
certain provider, allowing you to
choose any desired telephone
company.
PIN code / PUK code:
Each SIM can be secured using
a PIN. This PIN code helps you
to prevent unauthorised per-
sons from using your phone.

7
In most cases, the documen-
tation accompanying the SIM
card will show a PIN set by
default. You can change this
PIN yourself.
After you’ve entered an incor-
rect PIN for up to three times,
the SIM card will be locked.
You then need the PUK code
of the SIM card to unlock the
card again. Also the PUK code
is usually mentioned in the
documentation your supplier
provided with the SIM card. If
this information is not available,
please contact the help desk of
your supplier.

Prepaid or subscription:
This determines how you pay
for your phone bill. In short:
using the prepaid option, you’re
paying beforehand, in the case
of a subscription, you’re paying
afterwards.
This payment method is linked
to your SIM. Ask the help desk
of your provider about all of
your options.
Voicemail:
Voicemail is an answering
machine at the telephone ex-
change of the provider. It allows
callers to leave you a message
when you can’t or won’t answer
their call.

9
Ask the help desk of your pro-
vider about all of your options.
Car kit:
A car kit allows you to make
phone calls in your car keeping
your hands free for driving. Ask
the supplier of your car kit abut
connection options. You can of
course also connect a headset
in your car.
Headset:
A headset is a small ear phone
with a microphone attached to
a bracket or wire. It allows you
to make calls or listen to music
without holding the phone to
your ear.

10
This phone is suitable for head-
sets with a 4-pin 3.5mm con-
nector.
Warning: Using ear-
phones or headphones
for long periods of
time at high volume can lead
to permanent hearing damage.
To protect your hearing, please
keep the following in mind:
Increase the volume starting at
the minimum up to a comfort-
able level. Don’t listen for long
periods of time at high volumes.
Never increase the volume to
ignore or outdo environmental
noise. Decrease the volume
when you can’t hear the people
around you.

to determine the location of the
phone. By scanning for contact
through satellites, the position
of the phone can be accurately

tion. Inside buildings and in small

ternet service (mobile data). Ask
