Access Codes

There are several access codes used by your phone and its SIM card.
These codes help protect the phone against unauthorized use.
When requested to enter any of the codes, enter the code and press
<Select>.
Except for the PUK and PUK2 codes, access codes can be changed using
the Security menu (see "Security" on page 96).
Important! Avoid using access codes that are similar to emergency numbers, such as 911, to
prevent accidentally dialing an emergency number.

Phone Password

The Phone Lock feature allows you to set a password to protect your
phone against unauthorized use. For instructions, see "Security" on
page 96.

PIN

A 4 to 8-digit PIN (Personal Identification Number) protects your SIM card
against unauthorized use. It is usually supplied with the card.
If you enter an incorrect PIN three times in succession, the code is disabled
and cannot be used until you re-enable it by entering the PUK (see below).
For instructions on activating or deactivating the PIN Check feature and
changing the PIN, see "Security" on page 96.

PUK

The 8-digit PUK (PIN Unblocking Key) is required to change a disabled PIN. If a
PUK was not supplied with your SIM card, contact your service provider.
