Protecting your SIM card with the SIM lock password
(LTE/HSPA+ models only)
You can protect your SIM card against unauthorized use with a PIN. After a PIN is enabled
to lock your SIM, you will need to enter the PIN each time you turn on the tablet in order to
unlock your SIM.
CAUTION: The SIM card will be permanently locked if you enter the incorrect PIN for
three consecutive times. You must then enter the Personal Unblocking Key (PUK) to
unlock the SIM card. Contact your service provider to obtain the PUK.
