• Security settings

Security features help to prevent accidental calls, allow you to restrict the calls

PIN code request
The PIN code (4–8 digits) provides extra security in case your phone is lost or
stolen. The PIN code must be obtained from your service provider. It is typically
provided with your SIM card.
You can set your phone to request the PIN code upon power-up. After three
successive incorrect entries the PIN code is blocked and you are asked to enter
the personal unblocking key (PUK) code. Some SIM cards do not allow you to
turn the PIN code request off.
1 Select Menu > Settings > Security settings > PIN code request.
2 At the prompt, enter the PIN code, and select OK > On > OK.
