Security code

The preset security code is 12345.
When you change the security code,
keep the new code secret and in a
safe place separate from your phone.

Avoid using codes similar to
emergency numbers such as 112 to
prevent accidental dialling of the
emergency number.

Note: If you enter the wrong
security code five times in
succession, you will not be
able to enter a code for five
minutes, even if you power
off the phone between
incorrect entries.
