Entering Your PIN Code

20

The SIM card is protected by a PIN (Personal

Identification Number) that you must enter the first

time you use your phone or each time it is switched

on, if this option is set (see page 50).

For more details about the PIN and PUK codes, refer to the
glossary on page 77.
• If you wish to change your PIN, see page 51.
If you enter the wrong PIN three times in a row, the
card is blocked. To unblock your phone, you must enter the
eight-digit PUK (PIN Unblocking Key) that comes with your
SIM card.
If you enter the wrong PUK ten times in a row, your
SIM card will be permanently blocked. You must then
contact your network operator.

If the signal received is weak (crackling and back-

ground noise during a telephone conversation), you

can pull out the telescopic antenna.
