Then place the other SIM card into slot SIM2 just to the right of SIM1 slot, the orientation of the card is the same as for SIM1 one with contact side down and the bevelled cut out located at the bottom right corner.  Place this in slot SIM2.  It does not matter which SIM card goes where so long as both are correctly installed.
