IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Use of Passwords
Your mobile phone and SIM card have various passwords. Those passwords avoid
unauthorized use of your phone and SIM card. You can change PIN, PIN2 and
phone password in the “Settings > Security Setup”.
Phone Code
The Phone code can be used to avoid unauthorized use of your phone. The factory
setting for the phone code is 0000. If phone lock is enabled, you will be asked to
input the phone password when you switch on your phone.
PIN (4 to 8 digits)
The PIN (Personal Identification Number) code protects your SIM card from
unauthorized use. The PIN code is usually supplied with the SIM card. When the
PIN code request is enabled, the password is asked every time the phone is turned
on.
Three times wrong PIN input, the SIM card will be locked and you will need to use
the PUK to unlock it. PUK is usually set by the network operator.
1. Enter the correct PUK to unlock the SIM card, and then enter the new PIN and
press OK.
2. If you are prompted to enter the new PIN again, enter it and press OK.
3. If the PUK is correct, the SIM card will be unlocked and the PIN will be reset.
PUK (8 digits)
The PUK (Personal Unblocking Key) code is required to change a blocked PIN
code. Please contact your network operator for the code.
Note: Ten times wrong input in succession, the SIM card will be invalid and you
need to consult with your network operator for a new SIM card.
PIN2 (4 to 8 digits)
The PIN2 code, supplied with some SIM card, is used for some functions, such as
Call Cost, Fixed Dial and so on. Please consult your network operator to confirm
whether your SIM card supports those services or not.
Three times wrong PIN2 code input, the SIM card will be locked and you will need
to use the PUK2 to unlock it.
1. Enter the correct PUK2 to unlock PIN2, and then enter the new PIN2 and press
OK.
2. If you are prompted to enter the new PIN2 again, enter it and press OK.
PUK2 (8 digits)
The PUK2 code, supplied with some SIM card, is required to change a blocked
PIN2 code. It may be supplied with the SIM card. If not, contact your network
operator.
Note: Ten times wrong input in succession, the SIM card will be invalid and you
need to consult with your network operator for a new SIM card.
Barring Code
To activate call barring, you need a Barring Code. You obtain the password from
your service provider.
