To switch on your phone:
Press to switch on your phone.
If access to the SIM card is protected by a secret code,
the phone will ask you to enter your PIN code.
PIN code
This is the personal code for your SIM card. You may
be asked to enter this code when the instruction: Pin
number? appears after you switch on your phone.
Enter the code of between 4 and 8 digits given to you
by your operator. These digits will not be displayed on
the screen for security reasons.
Press # or
OK
or on righthand key
to validate.
PIN2 code (*)
If one was given to you by your Operator, a second PIN
code provides secure access to certain functions.
Setting Time and Date
The first time the phone is used, the time and date will
need to be set.
If the battery has completely run down or been taken
out, you will be asked to validate the time and date.
Warning
If the wrong PIN code is entered three
times in a row, the card will be locked. To
unlock your card:
- enter **05*
- enter the PUK code (Personal
Unlocking Key) provided by your
Network Operator and validate,
- enter your PIN code and validate,
- enter your PIN code again and validate.
After 5 or 10 times (depending on SIM
card type), the SIM card will be
permanently locked. Contact your
Operator or your Service Provider to
obtain a new card.
The same procedure (entering 052)
applies when the PIN-2 code is blocked
(PUK 2 code).
Control of the PIN code
If your phone displays SIM absent,
press (long press) to switch off your
phone and check that your SIM card is
correctly positioned.
