Turning On the Phone
To turn on the phone:
Press and hold down the NO (ON/OFF) key until
you hear a click. The display prompts you to
enter your PIN.
Enter your PIN. The digits appear as stars in the
display. If you make a mistake while entering
your PIN, erase the wrong digit by pressing the
CLR key.
Press YES.
If you enter your PIN correctly, ‘ERICSSON’ will appear in
the display. The phone will then search for a network.
Note! If your PIN is entered incorrectly three times in a row,
the SIM card will be blocked and you will have to un-
block it using your PUK code. See chapter ‘Security’.
When a network is found, the phone beeps three times.
The indicator light on top of the phone flashes green
once every second and your network operator’s name
(in most cases abbreviated) is shown in the display. If
you have the charger connected, the indicator will
show a steady green light instead of a flashing one.
You can now make and receive calls. This is called
standby mode.
When No Network Name Is Displayed
If the message ‘Emergency calls only’ is displayed, you
are within range of a network but you are not allowed
to use it. However, in an emergency, you can call the
international emergency number 112. See chapter
‘Making and Receiving Calls’.
If the message ‘No network’ is displayed, there is no
network within range or the received signal is too
weak. You have to move to obtain a sufficiently strong
signal.
To Turn Off the Phone
In standby mode, press and hold the NO
(ON/OFF) key until the display is turned off.
Initial Settings
The first time you turn on your SH 888, you may want
to change the default language and ring level settings,
and set the clock.
Display Language
Most modern SIM cards automatically set the display
language to the language of the country where you
bought your SIM card. If this is not the case, the default
language is English.
To change the display language:
Press the navigation key LEFT or RIGHT until the
‘Settings’ menu appears.
Press YES to enter the ‘Settings’ menu.
Press the navigation key to the LEFT until the
‘Language’ menu appears.
Press YES to enter the ‘Language’ menu.
Press the navigation key until you find the
desired language.
Press YES to select the language.
Press to enter the menu system. See inside the cover. 7
