To set a device password:
1. Tap Start > Settings > All Settings .
2. On the Personal tab, tap Lock .
3. Select the Prompt if device unused for check box, and then specify the idle time before the device requires a
password.
4. In the Password type box, select the type of password you would like to use.
5. Enter the password in both the Password and Confirm boxes.
6. Tap ok . The next time the device is turned on, you will be prompted to enter your password.
Managing Memory
To see how much memory is available for use:
1. Tap Start > Settings > All Settings .
2. On the System tab, tap Memory > Main tab. The amount of memory allocated to data storage versus
program storage is displayed, as well as the amount of memory in use versus the available memory.
Adding and Removing Programs
Additional programs that you purchased can be installed and uninstalled on your device. Your device does
not allow you to uninstall most of the preinstalled programs.
Before you launch the program installer, check first whether the installer can directly run on Windows Mobile
or needs to be run on a computer.
To install a program directly on your device:
1. If the installer is a .cab file, directly download or copy it to your device.
2. On your device, open File Explorer and navigate to the installer file.
3. Tap the file to launch the installer.
Tip If your device is configured to connect to a network, use an alphanumeric password for increased security.
Notes • To ensure that you can always make emergency calls, do not begin your password with the digits of your
local emergency number.
• If you entered a hint, the hint will be displayed after the wrong password is entered five times.
• Each time a wrong password is entered, the device response time gets longer until the device appears to be
not responding.
• If you forget your password, you can hard reset or clear the device memory. Before you do this, make sure
you back up your data and files so that you can restore them back to your device. For more information about
hard resetting the device and clearing the memory, see “Resetting Your Device” on page 123.
Note Before you purchase additional programs for your device, make sure that they are compatible with your device.
