Protecting Your Keypad, Phone and SIM Card

This chapter describes the different locks that you can use to protect your phone. These are the only ways of protecting your phone in case of theft.

About Locks

Your phone has three types of locks:

Keypad lock (does not protect in case of theft)

Card lock

Phone lock

The card and phone locks are found in the Locks menu and you find the keypad lock in the Keylock menu.

Keypad Lock

You can lock the keypad so that unintentional key action has no effect if the phone is turned on when you are carrying it in a handbag or pocket. When activated, the keypad lock is turned on 30 seconds after the last key action. And the standby display has a lock icon.

The keypad remains locked until you:

answer or reject a call.

unlock the keypad yourself.

Note!

You can always make the international emergency call 112 when the keypad is locked.

PINs and PUKs
