Access Codes
There are several access codes that are used by
your phone and its SIM card. These codes help you
protect the phone against unauthorized use.
When requested for any of the codes explained
below, key in the appropriate code (displayed as
asterisks) and press the
OK
soft key. If you make a
mistake, press the
key until the incorrect digit
is cleared and then continue entering the correct
code.
The access codes, except for the PUK and PUK2
codes can be changed using the
Security
menu
options (
Menu 6.6
). See page 94 for further
details.
Important!
Avoid using access codes resembling
emergency numbers, such as 112, so
that you do not dial an emergency
number accidentally.
Phone Password
The Phone Lock feature uses the phone password to
protect your phone against unauthorised use. The
phone password is supplied with the phone and is
preset to “00000000” at the factory.
