Insert the SIM card

Insert the SIM card
  1. Open the SIM card tray: push the tray opener pin in the tray hole and slide the tray out.
  2. Put the nano-SIM in the SIM slot on the tray with the contact area face down.
  3. If you have a memory card, put it in the memory card slot.

Insert the second SIM

Insert the second SIM
  1. If you have a dual-SIM phone, put the second SIM in the SIM2 slot.
  2. Slide the tray back in.

Use only original nano-SIM cards. Use of incompatible SIM cards may damage the card or the device, and may corrupt data stored on the card.

Use only compatible memory cards approved for use with this device. Incompatible cards may damage the card and the device and corrupt data stored on the card.

Tip: To find out if your phone can use 2 SIM cards, see the label on the sales box. If there are 2 IMEI codes on the label, you have a dual-SIM phone.

Important: Do not remove the memory card when an app is using it. Doing so may damage the memory card and the device and corrupt data stored on the card.

Tip: Use a fast, up to 512 GB microSD memory card from a well-known manufacturer.
