Section 2B: Controlling Your Phone’s Settings

Password Setting

The password option allows you to enable or disable a
password.

The available settings are:

Simple PIN - Allows you to set a four-digit (numeric)
password using the onscreen keypad.

Strong alphanumeric - Allows you to enter a password that
contains letters, numbers, or both.

When a password is configured, there is a “prompt if device
unused” option that allows setting a time from 0 to 24 hours
in one-minute increments. When this option is set, you can
continue to use your phone until the screen turns off due to
inactivity. If your phone is inactive for a greater amount of
time than specified in this setting, you will need to enter a
password when you turn the device back on.

To set the password:

1.

Tap the Start menu bar located in the upper left corner
of the screen.

2.

Tap Settings.

3.

Tap the Personal tab at the bottom of the display.

4.

Tap the Lock icon.

5.

Tap the check box next to “Prompt if device unused for.”

6.

Tap the drop-down arrow to select the amount of time
that will elapse before you are prompted for a
password.

7.

From the drop-down box to the right of "Password
type," select from one of these options:

Simple PIN (any four-digit number)

Strong alphanumeric
