When you have found it, you will have to insert a pointed object into the tiny hole next to the slot. One example is, you can use a paper clip to do so. By pushing into the hole, the SIM card rack should come out. You must after that remove the rack from the slot. Simply insert the SIM card into this rack and re-insert it into your ZUK Z1.
