SIM Card Lock
The SIM card lock only protects your subscription and not your phone
itself from unauthorized use. If you change SIM cards, the phone
still works with the new SIM card. Most SIM cards are locked at the
time of purchase. If the SIM card lock is on, you have to enter the
PIN every time you turn on your phone.
Note! If you enter your PIN incorrectly three times in a row, the SIM card
is blocked. This is indicated by the message
PIN blocked
. If this
happens you need to unblock it to access your subscription. If you
enter the wrong PUK 10 times in a row, your card is permanently
blocked. If this happens, you should contact your network operator.
Note! If the message
Codes do not match
appears, this means you entered
the new PIN incorrectly. If the message
Wrong PIN
appears, followed
by
Old PIN:
, you entered your old PIN incorrectly.

stolen and the SIM card is exchanged. It is not on when you buy the
phone. You can change the phone lock code (0000) to any 4- to 8-
digit personal code.
