Screen lock
Screen lock overview
Your device's screen turns off and locks itself if you
press the Power/ Lock Key. This also happens after the
device is left idle for a specified period of time.
If you press the Power/Lock Key when a screen lock is not
set, the Home screen appears immediately.
To ensure security and prevent unwanted access to
your device, set a screen lock.
