Your NEC 232 wireless phone is equipped with a battery, SIM card, hands-free headset, and a charger. Other accessory options can customize your phone for greater

performance and mobility.

For all the features to work, you must have a SIM card that supports these features. (See Flag.) Even if you have a fully featured SIM card, any feature not supported by the

Network transmitting your call, will not work. This last point is especially important when you are roaming among networks.

Before you try to use your phone, check that you have:

NEC Authentic Accessories

(see page 162)

A valid SIM card inserted in the phone (see page 18)

A battery fully charged (see page 19)

Service Activation

Before you can use your new NEC wireless phone, the service must be activated by a wireless service provider. Please contact your local wireless service provider for any

questions regarding phone activation.

Voice Mail and Messaging

Voice mail and messaging services, when available, are provided by your wireless service provider. Before you can receive either voice or text messages with your wireless

phone, you must subscribe to these wireless service provider options. Contact your wireless service provider for information on availability and setup of these services.

PIN and Security Codes

When your service is activated, a PIN and PIN2 (Personal Identification Number) are provided by the wireless phone retailer and programmed into the SIM card. Check

with your wireless service provider for additional information regarding your security codes and passwords.

Use the PIN to lock and unlock the SIM card to help prevent unauthorized use of the SIM card. Use the PIN2 to access the FDN phonebook.

You may want to set up your own security code. Use the security code to lock and unlock the phone, lock access to the Internet, and restrict access to the PIM (Personal

Information Manager) application data. The default security code is '0000' until you change it to a personal security code. After changing the security code to a personal

security code, the default security code is no longer valid.

A Security Code screen displays and requires entry of your PIN when the SIM PIN setting is locked and the phone is powered-on.

A Security Code screen displays and requires entry of your PIN2 when adding, editing, deleting, copying any phone entries in or to the FDN phonebook. (See Flag.)

A Security Code screen displays and requires entry of your security code when you attempt to access features or functions that you have locked.

The SIM card is included in the phone box,

supplied by the service provider. The SIM card

is required for your phone to function

properly.

FDN is a network service provider dependent

feature.
