Set PIN code request

You can activate the PIN code request to prevent unauthorized use of your phone. If you set the PIN code request to On, your phone will ask for the code each time you turn the phone on.

Note: When the phone is locked, calls may be possible to the emergency number programmed into your phone (for example, 911 or other official emergency number).

2Enter the PIN code supplied by your service provider, and press OK.

3Scroll to On and press OK.

To turn off this feature, repeat steps 1-3, scroll to Off, then press OK.

Change your PIN or PIN2 code

You can change your PIN or PIN2 code to any 4- to 8-digit number.

Tip: Activate the PIN code request first.

1Press Menu 4-7-6 (Settings > Security settings > Change access codes).

2Scroll to Change PIN code, then press Select.

3Enter the current PIN code and press OK.

4Enter the new PIN code and press OK.

5Enter the new PIN code again to verify, and press OK.

Note: If you make a mistake while entering the code, Code Error appears. Start again at step 2 and be careful to enter the correct code. If you enter the wrong code three times in a row, the PIN code is blocked. To unblock the PIN code, you need a Personal Unblocking Key (PUK) from your service provider.

• PUK CODES

The PUK and PUK2 codes are 4-digit to 8-digit codes that usually come from your service provider along with the SIM card. The PUK code unblocks a blocked PIN code, and the PUK2 code unblocks a blocked PIN2 code.

If you block your phone, contact your service provider. When you enter the PUK code given by your service provider, the phone prompts you to enter and then confirm a new PIN code.
