IMEI number

2Place a fingernail under the right or left edge of the label tray, then drag the tray outwards to view your IMEI number.
You can also open the phone dialer on your device and enter *#06# to view the IMEI number.

SIM card protection
You can lock and unlock each SIM card that you use in your device with a PIN (Personal Identity Number). When a SIM card is locked, the subscription linked to the card is protected.
If you enter the PIN incorrectly more times than the maximum number of attempts allowed, your SIM card will become blocked. You then need to enter your PUK (Personal Unblocking Key) and a new PIN. Your PIN and PUK are supplied by your network operator.
