SIM Card Lock

The SIM card lock protects your subscription, but not your

phone itself, from unauthorized use. If you change SIM cards,

the phone still works with the new SIM card.

Most SIM cards are locked at the time of purchase. If

the SIM card lock is on, you have to enter a PIN (Personal

Identity Number) every time you turn on your phone.

If you enter your PIN incorrectly three times in a row,

the SIM card is blocked. This is indicated by the message

PIN blocked.

To unblock it, you need to enter your PUK

(Personal Unblocking Key). Your PIN and PUK are supplied

by your service provider. You can edit your PIN and select

a new four- to eight-digit PIN.
