General Information
Congratulations and thank you for buying the Ericsson R38
Smartphone, the ultimate mobile phone and personal digital
assistant. This is an advanced, yet easy to use, product with a
wide range of features, designed to make everyday life much
easier.

are and whenever you want. Along with a host of mobile phone
functions, your R38 can send and receive e-mail and SMS

much, much more.

Operators and Subscription
To be able to use your phone, you need to have a subscription to
a network. This is obtained from the network operator.
The services included in your subscription depend on your
choice of operator and/ or subscription. Therefore, some of the
services and functions described in this manual may not be
accessible to you. If you want a complete list of the services
included in your subscription, please contact your network
operator.
Phone Information
6 General Information
GSM 900/1900 Dual Band
The Ericsson R38 is a dual band phone, which means that you
can use your phone in two different kinds of networks - the
GSM 9 and GSM 19 systems.
The GSM 19 system is used primarily in the US and other
parts of the Americas, and the GSM 9 system is used primarily
in Europe, the Asia/Pacific region and in some parts of Africa.
This means that you can used your R38 on six continents.
Switching between the two systems is done automatically, which
means that you can use your phone without ever having to
consider which system is being used. This is taken care of by the
networks. However, you should note that the functions offered
and the network coverage differ depending on your choice of
operator and/or subscription.
SIM and PIN
You will obtain a SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card with
your subscription. The SIM card contains a computer chip that
keeps track of your phone number, the services you have ordered
from your network operator and your Phone Book information,
among other things.
Your SIM card is supplied with a security code or PIN (Personal
Identity Number), which you need in order to gain access to the
network. Your PIN may also be required when you want to
change settings in your phone. Furthermore, some operators may
have services that require a second PIN, your PIN2. You will find
your PIN (and PIN2) in the information from your operator.
If you have set certain security options in your phone, when you
turn on your phone, it prompts you to enter your PIN. If the
PIN is entered incorrectly three times in a row, the SIM card will
be blocked. If this happens you can unlock it by using your PUK
(Personal Un-blocking Key code), which you also get from your
operator. You should be careful with your PIN, since it is your
protection against unauthorized use of your phone and
subscription.
General Information 7

information, Mobile Internet is the answer. Mobile Internet is a
