PIN check

When the PIN Check feature is enabled, you must enter your PIN each time you switch on the phone. Consequently, any person who does not have your PIN cannot use your phone without your approval.

Note: Before enabling or disabling the PIN Check feature, you must enter your PIN.

The following options are available:

Disable: the phone connects directly to the network when you switch it on.

Enable: you must enter the PIN each time the phone is switched on.

Change PIN

This feature allows you to change your current PIN, provided that the PIN check feature is enabled. You must enter the current PIN before you can specify a new one.

Once you have entered a new PIN, you are asked to confirm it by entering it again.

Phone lock

When the Phone lock feature is enabled, the phone is locked and you must enter the 4- to 8-digit phone password each time the phone is switched on.

The password is preset to “00000000” at the factory. To change the phone password, see "Change password" on page 116.

Once the correct password has been entered, you can use the phone until you switch it off.
