contact Nextel Customer Service for assistance.

code, and press Ok (left softkey). (To set your

Important: If you enter your PIN incorrectly three times, your
SIM card is blocked. See “Unblocking the PIN”
on page 90.
Note: SIM PIN must be turned on in order to access this
feature.
Important: If you unsuccessfully enter the PUK code ten
times, your SIM card is permanently blocked and
must be replaced. If this happens, you get a
message to contact Nextel Customer Service.
Except for making emergency calls, your phone
does not function with a blocked SIM card.
