Access codes
There are several access codes that are used by
your phone and its SIM card. These codes help
protect the phone against unauthorised use.
When any of the codes explained below are
requested, enter the appropriate code (displayed as
asterisks) and press the OK soft key. If you make a
mistake, press the C key one or more times until
the incorrect digit is cleared and then continue
entering the correct code.
The access codes, except for the PUK and PUK2
codes, can be changed using the Security menu
(Menu 5.5). See page 117 for further details.
Important! Avoid using access codes resembling
emergency numbers, such as 112, so
that you do not accidentally dial an
emergency number.
Phone password
The Phone lock feature uses the phone password to
protect your phone against unauthorised use. The
phone password is supplied with the phone and is
preset to "00000000" at the factory.

The Personal Identification Number or PIN (4 to
8 digits) protects your SIM card against
unauthorised use. It is usually supplied with the
SIM 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).

PUK
The 8-digit PUK (PIN Unblocking Key) is required to
change a disabled PIN. The PUK may be supplied
with the SIM card. If not, or if you have lost it,
contact your service provider.
To re-enable your PIN:
1. Enter the PUK and press the OK soft key.
2. Enter a new PIN of your choice and press the OK
soft key.
3. When the Confirm new PIN message displays,
enter the same code again and press the OK
soft key.
If you enter an incorrect PUK ten times in
succession, the SIM card becomes invalid. Contact
your service provider for a new card.
