The Card Lock
Your SIM card is protected by a card lock. When you buy
your SIM card, you obtain a PIN (Personal Identity
Number).
Every time you turn the phone on, you have to enter
your PIN and then press
YES, unless you turn this
feature off (see below).
If you enter your PIN incorrectly three times in a row,
the SIM card will be blocked. This is indicated by the
message ‘Card blocked Unblock?’. If this happens, see
’If Your SIM Card Is Blocked’ below.
Note! If your PIN starts with the same digits as the inter-
national emergency number 112 (in the Americas 911),
they will appear in the display, when you enter your
PIN.
To Change Your PIN
From the ‘Access’ menu, select ‘Change PIN
code’.
Enter your old (current) PIN and press YES.
Enter your new PIN and press YES.
At the prompt ‘Repeat new PIN’, enter your new
PIN a second time and press YES.
The message ‘New PIN’ confirms that the PIN
has been changed.
Note! If the message ‘Matching error’ appears, this meansyou
entered the new PIN incorrectly. If the message ‘Wrong
PIN’ appears, followed by ‘Enter Old PIN’, you entered
your old PIN incorrectly.
