1. Getting Started
Your car phone consists of 
two major parts:
1. Handset
2. Radio unit
Before you can use your car 
phone, you must place a 
SIM (Subscriber Identity 
Module) card in the phone.
Your car phone has two SIM card readers: one in the radio unit 
and the other in the handset. The factory setting assigns the 
card reader in the handset priority; the car phone will only work 
with the prioritised card (e.g. Phone book). 
The user can change the priority of the card readers for use via 
the menu, see “4-2-7 SIM card priority” on page 28. The user‘s 
priority setting is then used as a default setting. If only one 
reader is initially loaded with a card, that reader is automatical-
ly used.
If an invalid or corrupted SIM card is used in the prioritised card 
reader, the user is notified through a message on the display. 
The phone will not try to use a different card reader with a lower 
priority. Switch off the car phone and remove the invalid SIM 
card. Then restart the car phone. The car phone will then work 
with the second SIM card.
Inserting a SIM card in the radio unit
The SIM card and the contacts stored in it can easily be dam-
aged if scratched or bent, so be careful when handling, inserting 
or removing the card.
Before you insert the SIM card, 
make sure that the car phone 
has been switched off!
Insert the SIM card into the slot 
so that the contacts are towards 
the radio unit.
