Setting it Up
Sim Card installation
The G62 takes a 3FF Micro SIM card. The G62 may be damaged by electrostatic discharge if not handled correctly so ensure adequate static precautions are taken. Consider wearing
an anti-static wrist guard and avoid touching the antennae and any of the electronic components on the PCB. Take special care not to touch the ceramic GPS antenna as static can
damage the sensitive GPS circuitry.
The SIM holder is located on the top side of the main PCB.
1. Unplug the battery and remove any external power connections.
2. Slide the locking mechanism on the SIM holder to the "unlock" position, and lift the hinged portion of the SIM holder.
3. Insert the micro SIM into the holder with the keyed corner orientated away from the hinge and the SIM contacts orientated down to the PCB (see example above).
4. Close the SIM holder and slide the locking mechanism to the "lock" position.
