Setting up your device

To set up your BlackBerry 10 device, you need a nano SIM card. If you don't have a SIM card or don't have the right type of

SIM card, contact your service provider.
If you want more storage for pictures, videos, music, and documents, insert a media card (microSD card).
When you're ready, open the Setup app. This app helps you transfer content from your old device, and add your email,

BBM, instant messaging, and social networking accounts.

Insert the SIM card

Depending on your service provider and where you purchased your BlackBerry device, the SIM card might already be
inserted.

1.

With the back of your device facing you, use the indentation on the top of the device to pull the top part of the cover

toward you.

2.

With the metal contacts facing away from you, insert the nano SIM card into the right slot as shown.
