Unlocking and Locking Options
Configuration options that can be changed from a phone are locked by default to
prevent users from making changes that could affect the operation of a phone. You
must unlock these options before you can change them.
When options are inaccessible for modification, a locked padlock icon
appears on the configuration menus. When options are unlocked and
accessible for modification, an unlocked padlock icon appears on these
menus.
To unlock or lock options, press **#. This action either locks or unlocks the
options, depending on the previous state.
Make sure to lock options after you have made your changes.
Caution Do not press **# to unlock options and then immediately press **# again to lock
options. The phone will interpret this sequence as **#**, which will reset the
phone. To lock options after unlocking them, wait at least 10 seconds before you
press **# again.
