2 SECURITY
Your Vertu phone has a number of security features that help to
prevent:
Unauthorised use of your Vertu phone when your SIM card is
>
inserted
Unauthorised use of your Vertu phone if a different SIM card
>
is inserted
Unauthorised use of your SIM card in another phone.
>
PIN code
The (4 to 8 digit) PIN (Personal Identification Number) code helps
protect your SIM card against unauthorised use. When the PIN
code function is active, you need to key in the PIN code each time
you switch on your Vertu phone. If you used your SIM card in
another phone previously, the code will be the same.
The default setting for the PIN code function is defined by your
service provider. Some service providers do not allow you to disable
the PIN code request.
The SIM card becomes blocked if you key in an incorrect PIN
code three times in succession. You will need to contact your
service provider for the PUK (PIN Unblocking) code.
Key in the PUK code if you have blocked your SIM card.
PUK codes cannot be changed. If you key in an incorrect
PUK code 10 times in succession your SIM card becomes
permanently blocked.
To turn the PIN code on and off:
1. From the stand-by display, press

PIN2 code
The PIN2 code is used to protect the advanced user functions of
your SIM card for example fixed dialling lists. Your PIN2 code must
not be the same as your PIN code.
To change your PIN2 code:
1. From the stand-by display, press
A c c e s s co d e s
2. When prompted, enter your current PIN2 code and then press
3. When prompted, enter your new PIN2 code and then press
4. Enter your new PIN2 code again to verify and then press
A confirmation message is displayed.
The PIN2 protected features of your SIM card will become blocked
if you incorrectly enter your PIN2 code a number of times, normally
after three consecutive attempts. You will need to contact your
service provider to obtain a PIN2 Unblock (PUK2) code to unblock
your PIN2 and restore your SIM card's full functionality.
Security code
The security code helps protect your Vertu phone from
unauthorised use. The first time you access this feature you will
need to choose a code (between 5 - 10 digits long). You will need
to key in this security code before you can do the following:
Switch on the phone when a new SIM card is inserted (if you
>
have set up security)
Erase all entries in your contacts list
>
Restore the default settings
>
Change the security level.
>
If you key in an incorrect security code five times in
succession, your Vertu phone will not accept the correct
security code for the next five minutes. Within that five
minutes, your Vertu phone will show an error when you
attempt to key in the security code, even if it is correct.
To change the security code:
1. From the stand-by display, press

3. When prompted, enter your new security code and then press
4. Enter your new security code again to verify and then press
A confirmation message is displayed.
Make a careful note of your new security code, ensure you keep it
secret and in a safe place.
