Protect Your SIM Card With the SIM Lock

Password

You can protect your SIM card against unauthorized use with a personal

identification number (PIN). After a PIN is enabled to lock your SIM, you will

need to enter the PIN each time you turn on the device in order to unlock

your SIM.

NOTE:

The SIM card will be permanently locked if you enter the incorrect PIN for

three consecutive times. You must then enter the Personal Unblocking Key (PUK) to

unlock the SIM card. Please contact your service provider to obtain the PUK.

NOTE:

You can make emergency calls without unlocking the SIM.
