Initial use 

Installing the SIM card(s), memory card and battery 

A SIM card, available from your phone supplier, is 
required to use the phone. The SIM card(s), battery 
and memory card must be installed before the phone 

is used for the first time.  

A memory card (not included in the delivery) is re-
quired to save photos with the integrated camera.  

The tiptel 6240/6242/6243 supports Micro SD memory 

cards with a capacity up to 8 GB - these can be purchased on the 
accessories market and in electronics shops. 

The casing cover on the back of the device must be removed to 
insert the SIM card, a memory card and the battery. To do this, 
insert a fingernail into the notch in the bottom left of the case 
cover, and remove it. Carefully install the SIM card(s) in the card 
holder. Push the SIM card under the metal clamp with the con-
tacts pointing downwards. Place the SD memory card into the 
holder with the contacts facing down, and push the holder to the 
left to secure it. The battery is inserted next (this is only possible 
in the correct position). Then refit the casing cover and press it 
until it clicks into place. 

Charging the battery 

A charger and a power supply unit are supplied with your phone. 
Insert the small connector on the power supply unit into the jack 
on the rear of the charger cradle. If it is not easy to insert the 
connector into the jack, check the direction and avoid applying 
force. Then plug the power supply unit into the socket. Place the
