all when you first remove it from the box. We recommend three hours for a
full charge, or until the LED is solid green. 
1. Plug the AC charger into a wall outlet. If necessary, connect an adapter.
2. Connect the charger cable to the bottom of the Treo with the word UP
facing the same way as your Treo screen.

Inserting the SIM card
Your Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) card contains account information such
as your phone number and voicemail access number. To use the phone, email,
or web features of your Treo, you need to insert the SIM card. If a SIM card
did not come with your Treo, your mobile service provider will give you one
when you subscribe. If you have an older, 5-volt SIM card, you should request
a newer, 3-volt SIM. This Treo is not compatible with older 5-volt SIM cards.
