Locking and unlocking the 
screen
If you do not use the phone for a while, 
the screen is turned off and locked 
automatically. This helps to prevent 
accidental touches and saves battery 
power.
When you are not using the phone, press 
the Power/Lock Key 
to lock it.
If there are any programs running when 
you set lock screen, they may be still 
running in Lock mode. It is recommended 
that you exit all programs before entering 
Lock mode to avoid unnecessary charges 
(e.g. phone calls, web access and data 
communications).
To wake up your phone, press the Power/
Lock Key 
. The lock screen will
appear. Touch and slide the lock screen in 
any direction to unlock your Home screen. 
The last screen you viewed will open.
Secure your lock screen
You can lock your screen so that only you 
can unlock it to access your phone. 
To set Swipe, Pattern, PIN or Password 
for the first time:
From the Home screen, touch
> Apps tab > Settings
> Lock
screen > Select screen lock > Swipe, 
Pattern, PIN or Password.
NOTE: 
Precautions to take when using 
pattern lock.
It is very important to remember the 
unlock pattern you set. You will not be 
able to access your phone if you use 
an incorrect pattern 5 times. You have 
5 opportunities to enter your unlock 
pattern, PIN or password. If you have 
used all 5 opportunities, you can try 
again after 30 seconds.
