Enter the phone password. The default password is”1234”. If you cannot remember the password, contact the nearest service carrier.

When the “Enter PIN1” message appears:

Input PIN1. If you cannot remember it, contact the nearest service carrier. You can still receive calls even if your mobile phone becomes locked after entering the incorrect PIN1 on three consecutive attempts.
