Security settings

Your device uses codes to help prevent

unauthorised use:

The security code, supplied with

the device, helps to protect your

device against unauthorised use.

The preset code is 12345.

The PIN code, supplied with the UIM

card, helps to protect the card

against unauthorised use. If you

enter the PIN code incorrectly

three times in succession, the UIM

card is blocked. You must enter the

PUK code to unblock the UIM card

and set a new PIN code.

The PUK and code may be supplied

with the UIM card. If this is not the

case, contact your local network

operator.

The lock code protects your phone

from unauthorised outgoing calls

or unauthorised access to

information stored in the device.

The preset code is 1234.

When security features that restrict

calls are in use (such as call barring),

calls still may be possible to the official

emergency number programmed into

your device.

and one of the following:

PIN code request

—Set your device to

ask for the PIN code of the UIM card
when the device is switched on.

Some UIM cards do not allow this
function at all times.

Call barring

—Let you restrict incoming

and outgoing calls.

Security level

—The security level

determines your access to features

when a non-owner UIM card is used.

A non-owner UIM card is one

(other than the original) that is

inserted after you power off the device.

There are three security levels:

None

—Owner and non-owner

cards are treated the same.

Memory

—The device asks for the

security code when the UIM card

memory is selected, and you want

to change the memory in use or

copy from one memory to another.

Phone

—The security code is

required whenever a new UIM card

is inserted.

When you change the security level,
all the recent calls lists may be cleared,
including missed calls, received calls,
and dialled numbers.

Change access codes

—Let you change

the security code or PIN code.
These codes can include the numbers
0 to 9 only.

Avoid using access codes similar to the
emergency numbers, such as 111 or
000 or 911, to prevent accidental
dialling of the emergency number.
