LOCKING YOUR PHONE

To prevent unauthorized use of your phone, you can enter a three-digit code to lock your phone at any time (see “Using Manual Lock”). For added convenience, you can also set the phone to automatically lock every time you turn it off (see “Using Automatic Lock” on Page 37).

When the phone is locked, Loc ’d appears when you press any key (except PWR ). When the phone is locked and re- ceives a call, it rings as usual. To answer the call, you must enter the lock code and then press SND.

Your phone’s preset lock code is 123. For added security, you can change the code to one that you can easily remem- ber. See “Changing the Lock Code” on Page 37.

Note: If you lock your phone then forget the lock code, you can enter a six-digit security code to display the lock code. See “Displaying the Lock Code” on Page 38.
