Screen lock

Screen lock overview

Your device's screen turns off and locks itself if you press the Power/Lock

key. This also happens after the device is left idle for a specified period of

time.
If you press the Power/Lock key when a screen lock is not set, the Home

screen appears immediately.
To ensure security and prevent unwanted access to your device, set a

screen lock.

Screen lock prevents unnecessary touch input on the device screen and

reduces battery consumption. We recommend that you activate the

screen lock while not using the device.
