Access Codes
There are several access codes that are used by
your phone and its SIM card. These codes help you
protect the phone against unauthorized use.
When requested for any of the codes explained
below, key in the appropriate code (displayed as
asterisks) and press the OK soft key. If you make a
mistake, press the
key until the incorrect digit
is cleared and then continue entering the correct
code.
The access codes, except for the PUK and PUK2
codes can be changed using the Security menu
option (Menu 6.6). See page 89 for further
details.
Important! Avoid using access codes resembling
emergency numbers, such as 911, so
that you do not dial an emergency
number accidentally.
If you do not have your PIN, please contact your
network service provider. If you change any of the
default access codes, please store the new codes in
a safe place for reference. If you lose your codes,
you will need to contact your network service
provider to unlock your phone.
