• At power on – you will be requested to
enter the code every time you turn the
phone on.
• Off – the lock is turned off; no code will be
requested.
• When SIM changed – the code will only
be requested if the SIM card has been
changed.
SIM card lock
Your PIN (Personal Identification Number)
code consists of four to eight digits and is used
to protect your SIM card against unauthorized
use. It is needed for the access of the SIM card.
You get it from your operator with the SIM
card, but you can change it in the
Locks menu.
Your SIM card lock setting options are:
• At power on – you will be requested to
enter your PIN code every time you turn
the phone on.
• Off – the lock is turned off; no code will be
requested.
An error message informs you if an incorrect
PIN code has been entered. Usually, the SIM
card will be blocked after three incorrect
attempts (the number of attempts is operator-
dependent). To unblock the SIM card you
must use your PUK code.
The PUK code consists of eight digits. When
you have entered the right PUK code you must
enter a new PIN code. You have ten attempts
to enter the PUK code. If all ten attempts fail,
the SIM card will be unusable and you need to
contact your operator. You cannot change the
PUK code.
The PIN2 code
Some special SIM card services, such as Call
meter and Fixed Numbers, can be protected by
a secondary code feature, the PIN2 code. The
code properties are:
• PIN2 cannot be disabled, but the four-to-
eight digit code can be changed in the
Locks menu.
• PIN2 will be blocked after three incorrect
attempts. To unblock the code, a PUK2
code must be entered.
• After 10 unsuccessful PIN2 unblocking
attempts, the card can still be used, but
access to the PIN2-protected SIM features
is permanently barred.
• Not every SIM card has a PIN2 lock.
Inactivity lock
If you mark the Inactivity lock check box and
enter the requested Phone lock code, this lock
will be activated. It protects the screen from
accidentally being pressed. The screen will
automatically become locked after a 60-
second period of inactivity. To open it, touch
any key to bring up a dialog where you must
enter the
Phone lock code.
