About inserting a SIM card
A SIM card is a small rectangular plastic card that stores important information about your
wireless service. A SIM card might already be inserted in your BlackBerry device.
Insert a SIM card into your device if one of the following situations applies:
• Your wireless service provider supplied you with a SIM card or it is included in the box
with your device. Remove the SIM card from its packaging and insert it into your device.
• You are switching from one device that required a SIM card to another device. Remove
the SIM card from your previous device and insert it into your new BlackBerry device.
Depending on your wireless service provider, you might need a PIN code for the SIM
card. For more information, contact your wireless service provider.
For more information about how to insert a SIM card, see the Start Here poster that was
included with your device.
