40 Setting Up Your Device

When you enter a long distance phone number that starts with “+1”, the “+” will be removed and

the rest of the number will be dialed. For example, if you entered +1 416 123 4567, the number to

be dialed will be 14161234567.

When you enter an international phone number that starts with a “+” followed by a digit other

than 1, the “+” will be replaced with the United States international dialing code, which is already

set by default. For example, if you entered +58 212 123 4567, the number to be dialed will be

011582121234567.

4.

To place calls to the United States from another country, select Disable under North American dialing

and change the international dialing code to the one used by the country where you are in.
So when you dial a phone number that starts with “+” followed by any digit (0 - 9), the “+” will be

replaced with the international dialing code of the country where you are in.

Tip

If you modified the international dialing code, you can tap Reset to change it back to the default.

4.4 Protecting Your Device

You can prevent unauthorized access to your device by using password protection. To keep your data more

secure, you can set your device to prompt for a password every time the device is turned on or when your

device has been idle after a specified amount of time.

To protect your device with a password

1.

Tap Start > Settings > Personal tab > Lock.

2.

Select the Prompt if device unused for check box, and in the box to the right, select how long your

device must be idle before a password is required. In the Password type box, select the type of

password you would like to use. Enter the password and, if necessary, confirm the password.

If your device is configured to connect to a network, use an alphanumeric password for increased

security for your device.

3.

On the Hint tab, enter a phrase that will help you remember your password, but does not allow others

to guess your password.

The hint will be displayed after the wrong password is entered four times.

4.

Tap OK. The next time the device is turned on, you will be prompted to enter your password.

Notes Each time a wrong password is entered, the device response time gets longer until the device appears to be not

responding.

If you forget your password, you must follow the instructions in this user manual to clear the memory before

you can access your device.

To change your password

1.

Tap Start > Settings > Personal tab > Lock. You will be prompted to enter your current password.

2.

In the Password box, enter your new password.

3.

Tap OK.
