Installation and Preparation

Procedure for installing SIM/ SD card
This phone supports hot-swapping of Nano card (SIM1/SIM2)/Micro SD card. When the phone is on, it can automatically recognize a Nano card (SIM1/SIM2)/Micro SD card when you plug the card in. This phone supports Nano card (SIM1/SIM2)/Micro SD.

1. Insert the pin into the SIM pin port on the side body, and press it inwards to eject the SIM card tray; Remove the card tray.
2. Make the metal face of the Nano card (SIM1/SIM2) or Micro SD card face downward, with the oblique angle corresponding to that of the card tray. Put the Nano card (SIM1/SIM2) or Micro SD card into the card slot according to the direction indicated barrows of the diagram.
3. Touch screen facing up, follow the direction of the arrow to install the tray (with Nano card or Micro SD) into the phone.

Note

1. The back cover is not removable, so as not to damage the machine.
2. Put SIM/SD card into card tray, then mount card tray into the phone. It is forbidden to insert SIM/SD card to the phone directly.
3. You are suggested not to cut your SIM card by yourself. If the Nano card (SIM1/SIM2) does not match, please go to the carrier to change a standard Nano card.
4. The phone uses a “Dual card dual standby single-pass” design, with means the two card in the phone cannot be used in the same time for voice service or data connection service. When one of the two cards is in voice communication, the other card cannot be used to answer any calls. If there is an incoming call to the other card, the caller may hear messages such as “The number you called is not a service”, “The subscriber you dialed can not be connected for the moment, please redial later”. When one of the two cards is in a data connection state, the other card can use the data connection service. For this reason, the above phone “Dual card dual standby single-pass” design was caused, regardless of the operator’s network status. Single-channel is adopted because the phone uses a single-chip design, which can significantly improve the battery life and energy efficiency. The user is encouraged to consult local operators to enable services like “Missed call reminder”, “Incoming call reminder” and “Secretarial service” to avoid the issue of missing calls without alerts under the aforesaid conditions.
