Protecting your phone with a screen lock
You can secure your phone by requiring a screen unlock pattern every time your phone is
turned on or every time it wakes up from sleep mode (screen is off).
Press HOME
> MENU, and then tap Settings.
Scroll down the screen, and then tap Security > Set unlock pattern.
Read the information on the screen, and then tap Next.
Study the example pattern on the screen, and then tap Next.
Draw the screen unlock pattern by connecting at
least four dots in a vertical, horizontal and/or diagonal
direction. Lift your finger from the screen when finished.
You must slide your finger on the screen to create the pattern
and not tap individual dots.
The phone records the pattern. Tap Continue.
When prompted, draw the screen unlock pattern again,
and then tap Confirm.
Clear the Use visible pattern check box if you do not want the
unlock pattern to display on the screen when you unlock it.
