SIM Card Installation

The SIM card should come pre-installed if the E206XT is purchased directly from eGauge.

However, if this is not the case the SIM card can be installed or replaced as needed.

Using a paperclip or similar instrument, gently push in the small yellow button to the right of the

SIM tray. This will cause the tray to partially eject from the E206XT, at which point it can be

removed the rest of the way by hand.

To reinstall the SIM tray, gently press it back into the E206XT. The SIM card should have the

contact points facing upward. DO NOT force the SIM tray into the E206XT, as damage may result.
