Checkword and security
To confirm that you have entered the correct passcode
for the code memo and to prevent unauthorized access
to your codes, you must enter a checkword.
When you enter your passcode to open the code
memo, the checkword is shown for a short time. If
the passcode is correct, the correct codes are shown.
If you enter the incorrect passcode, the checkword
and the codes that are shown are also incorrect.
Factors strengthening the security of the code
memo function are:
• You get no feedback about whether the passcode
is correct, except for the checkword, and only you
know the checkword.
• All codes are encrypted in the phone.
• When you access your codes, they are shown for
a limited time only.
