Access Codes
There are several access codes that are used by
your phone and its SIM card. These codes help you
protect the phone against unauthorised use.
When requested for any of the codes explained
below, key in 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 (PIN
Unblocking Key) and PUK2 codes can be changed
using
Security
menu options (
Menu 4.6
). See
page 86 for further details.
Important!
Avoid using access codes resembling
emergency numbers, such as 112, so
that you do not dial an emergency
number accidentally.

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
factory set to “00000000.”
