PIN

Each PIN digit appears as *, unless it starts with emergency number digits, for example, 112 or 911. You can see and call an emergency number without entering a PIN.

If you enter the wrong PIN three times in a row, the SIM card is blocked. See SIM card lock on page 67.

Startup screen

The startup screen appears when you turn your phone on. See Using pictures on page 46.
