BT Diverse 2010 manual Security code and handset PIN

2.Security code and handset PIN

As a digital phone system, your Diverse 2010 provides excellent security against others ‘listening in’ to your calls. You can also prevent unauthorised use of the handset(s). To do this you need to know the system code, which you can change if you wish.

The standard setting for both the system code and handset PIN is 0000. If you do not wish to change either, you can use this number for all code and PIN related functions. Please be aware that anyone with access to the system code (and this user guide) has the potential to change system settings.

If you change your handset PIN, keep a record of the new number in the box provided at the front of this user guide.
