1. Contact your GSM network agent to obtain an account and/or SIM card. Be sure to specify if you
want a data only, voice only or voice and data account.
2. Provide the agent with the CallFinder’s model number and IMEI number. Both are located on the
label on the bottom of the product. You will also need to provide information about billing and about
the wireless services/features you need.
3. After Activation, your agent or wireless provider will give you the following:
∗ a SIM card, and
∗ a phone number.
4. Install the SIM Card.
Note: The wireless CallFinder requires a SIM card (Subscriber Identity Module) to operate on a GSM
network. The GSM CallFinder will not operate without a SIM.
To install the SIM card:
∗ Use a small screwdriver to remove the screw closest to the outside edge of the modem. Then
swing the loosened SIM slot cover up and over to the left.
∗ Insert the SIM card into the SIM card slot. A small, needle-nosed plier may be useful for this.
The following graphic illustrates the correct SIM card orientation.
∗ Verify that the SIM card fits properly; then replace the cover.
