Keyguard
This feature helps to prevent accidental key presses (e.g. when your phone is in your pocket, in your purse) by locking your keypad.
If any keys are pressed while Keyguard is activated, Press Unlock and then * will display.
Activating Keyguard
There are three different ways to activate Keyguard. Keys locked will appear on the display when activated.
•Press and hold ô
•Press Menu ∗
•Press Menu 9 at the start screen
Deactivating Keyguard
• Press Unlock, then ∗
Note: When Keyguard is ON, calls to the emergency number programmed into your phone (e.g. by pressing 911 then ó) may be possible. However, Emergency key 9 doesn’t work.
Answering a call with Keyguard active
During an incoming call the keypad automatically unlocks. However, you can answer a call only by opening the keypad cover if it’s active; otherwise, press only ó. After you end the call, Keyguard automatically becomes active again.
