Inside your Omnipoint handset, there’s an ingenious and
intelligent component: the SIM (Subscriber Identity Module)
Card.
Your SIM Card has a computer chip that can store digital
information, including your personal Phone Book, text messages, and
the information your handset needs to operate.
(Note: keep all SIM Cards out of reach of small children.)
The SIM Card is pre-loaded in the card holder on the back of your
handset, beneath the rechargeable battery. If your SIM Card is
missing from your handset or has been inserted improperly, you’ll see
the message “Insert Card” on your display. The handset will not
function when the SIM Card is removed (except for 911 calls).
In most cases, you never have to touch your SIM Card. But you can
remove your SIM Card if necessary – for example, to use in another
handset or to loan your handset to someone for use with their card.
Here’s how:
> First, switch your handset off by pressing the key and
holding it until you hear a click.
> Remove your battery (see p. 15).
> Release the SIM Card holder by sliding it toward the top of the
handset.
> Flip up the SIM Card holder.
> Slide the SIM Card out of its holder.
