Phone Lock - Sony Ericsson W810a User Manual

Most SIM cards are locked at the time
of purchase. If the SIM card lock is
on, you have to enter a PIN (Personal
Identity Number) every time you turn
on your phone.
If you enter your PIN incorrectly three
times in a row, the SIM card is blocked.
This is indicated by the message
Blocked. To unblock it, you need to
enter your PUK (Personal Unblocking
Key). Your PIN and PUK are supplied
by your network operator. You can
edit your PIN and select a new four- to
eight-digit PIN.
If the message
Codes Do Not Match
appears when you edit your PIN, you
entered the new PIN incorrectly.
If the message
Wrong PIN
followed by
Old PIN:
