PINs and PUKs

When you buy your SIM Card, you obtain a 4-
to 8-digit PIN (Personal Identity Number) and a
longer PUK (Personal Unblocking Key). If your
SIM card allows it, you can turn off the card
lock.

The PIN is the code that you enter to get access
to and activate your subscription. PIN 2 is used
with special functions.

The PUK (and PUK 2) is a little longer code
that helps you unlock your phone when you
have forgotten the PIN (PIN 2).
