1. Press and hold the power button ( ) located at the top of your
phone to switch the phone On.
2. Press Menu , then enter your lock code. For security purposes, the
code is not visible as you type.
Note: Throughout this user guide, you will be instructed to press keys in a
particular sequence to activate functions. These keys are navigation
(scroll) keys, hard keys (numbers, letters) and soft (left/right selection)
keys. Soft keys are determined by the text above them on your display
screen.
Tip: If you can’t recall your lock code, try using the last four digits of either
your Social Security number or PCS Phone Number or try 0000. If none of
these work, call PCS Customer Solutions at 1-888-211-4PCS (4727).
