Inserting and removing a SIM card and SD card

The SIM card and its contents can be easily damaged by scratches or bending. Use caution when inserting or removing the card.

The presence of any dust or moisture in the SIM card slot may adversely affect the device and void your warranty. To prevent dust or moisture entering the SIM card slot, when inserting or removing a SIM card, place the handheld on a dust-free indoor surface.

Static electricity can harm electronic components inside your handheld. To prevent static damage, discharge static electricity from your body before you touch any of the electronic components inside your device, such as a memory module. You can do so by touching an unpainted metal surface.

  1. Turn off the handheld. See Turning the handheld on and off.
