Encryption indication

Get a warning in your display if you

connect to a network which does

not support encryption.

Line lock

If you have Alternate Line Service

on your SIM card you can restrict

the outgoing use to only one of

these lines.

Activate the line lock in this sub

menu and enter a 4 to 8 digit lock

code of your own choice. To shift

back to the other line you have to

re-enter this code.

Facts & Tips

• For your own sake remember to

write down your SIM lock code to be

able to deactivate the lock at a later

time.

You have 10 attempts before

the phone is blocked.

• If you enter an invalid PIN code three

times, your SIM card will be blocked,

and to unblock it you have to enter the

PUK code supplied by your network

operator. This procedure prevents unau-

thorised persons from working out

your PIN code by repeatedly entering

different combinations of numbers.

• The display will inform you how many

tries you have left before the SIM card

is blocked. If you enter an invalid PUK

code 10 times, your SIM card will be

permanently blocked and you must

contact your network operator.

• Contact your network operator for

further information on PUK2 and PIN2

codes.

• Encryption means that the network

encrypts the conversations to make it

difficult for unauthorised persons to

listen in on them.
