Getting Started
Turning the PIN Requirement On and
Off
When the SIM PIN requirement is on, you are
prompted to enter your PIN each time you turn on
your handset.
Note: If a SIM PIN is required, your handset will
not function until the SIM PIN is entered,
except for making emergency calls.
When the PIN requirement is off, your handset can
be used without entering a PIN.
Important: When the SIM PIN requirement is off, the
personal data on your SIM card is not
protected. Anyone can use your handset
and access your personal data.

2 Select On or Off.
3 Enter the current SIM PIN.

Unblocking the PIN
