| Activating Your Service |
Your phone number is printed on the SIM card. Please read the letter carefully and keep in a safe place.
Your Global service is already active for you. When you receive your package, you should:
- 1. Check that the SIM card is correctly inserted and secure.
* The SIM card is already inserted into your phone if you ordered one. The SIM card is the small chip card
located in the back of the phone. It allows you to connect to the network.
- 2. Attach the fully charged battery to the phone.
- 3. Turn the phone on.
* Refer to your handset user guide on how to turn it on.
- 4. When the phone registers with an available network (this will take 30-120 seconds) it is ready for use.
* To make an outgoing call, simply dial the +country code (1 for the US/Canada) and phone number and then press the [SEND] key. You will then receive an incoming call. Simply answer the call and wait for your party to be connected. For example, dial +12313375555 if you were to call Los Angeles in the USA.
When calling from the United States to your Talk Abroad Travel phone number, callers will need to dial 011 followed by your Talk Abroad Travel cell phone number. |
