Inserting the SIM Card
A valid and activated SIM card is required to operate
the device. This is available from your mobile phone
provider. It saves all the important data of your con-
nection.
To open the SIM card holder, push the round button in
the housing with a pointed object. Place the SIM card
in the holder and push it back in the electronics box.
NOTES:
Insert the SIM card only if the device and the vehi-
cle ignition are turned off.
Make sure to insert the SIM card holder in the cor-
rect position. Closing does not require strong force.
If a piece of plastic remains on the edge of the SIM
card when taking it out, it is necessary to remove
this before inserting the SIM card.
Inputting PIN
If a PIN is required it will be requested with an appro-
priate message when starting the device.
Enter the PIN using the input keys
and conrm
with the OK function key. Corrections can be made
with the Delete function key.
PIN input is shown with asterisks so that it cannot be
seen. The subsequent registration in the network can
take a few seconds.
After entering an incorrect PIN three times the SIM
card is blocked. The PUK is requested for unblocking.
