1. Open the protective cover. Look for a small divot at the end of the back
panel closest to the USB connector, into which you can insert a fingernail.
2. Insert the SIM card with the contact points (typically gold-coloured)
facing toward the device. Position the card with the notched corner as
circled below and slide the card into the slot.
3. Gently push the SIM card forward until the spring catches and the card
remains securely in the slot.
4. Replace the back panel on the device.
TIP: To remove the SIM card simply use a paper clip to aid pushing the
SIM card out, ensuring that the spring is pressed down.

Preparing Your Computer for Installation
Mobile Connect from Bell is a program that allows you to set up and
manage your wireless connections over the Bell network.
Mobile Connect for Windows and Macintosh is pre-loaded onto your
Turbo Stick and can be installed directly from it to your computer
– no CD required.
Before inserting your Turbo Stick into the computer:
1. If you are already using a wireless connection manager (such as
Mobilink), or have it installed on the computer, you should uninstall the
program and restart before inserting your new Turbo Stick.
2. Ensure that computer security software (antivirus and firewall programs)
are set to allow software installation.
3. Ensure that you have Administrator Rights and the login user name and
password before attempting to install – check your computer’s Help files
for details.

that Mobile Connect is not a trusted application. You may safely
dismiss this warning and continue with the installation.
Installation should automatically begin. However, you may be prompted to

If the auto install fails to start, remove your Turbo Stick and use an
