protects your SIM card against unauthorized use. The
PIN code is usually supplied with the SIM card. When
the PIN Code Request is set to Enable, your phone will
request the PIN code every time it is switched on.
When the PIN Code Request is set to Disable, your
phone connects to the network directly without the
PIN code.
PIN2 code (4 to 8 digits)
The PIN2 code, supplied with some SIM cards, is
required to access functions such as Fixed Dial
Number. These functions are only available if
supported by your SIM card.
PUK code (4 to 8 digits)
The PUK (PIN Unblocking Key) code is required to
unlock a blocked PIN code. The PUK code may be
supplied with the SIM card. If not, contact your
network operator’s customer service for the code.
If you lose the code, contact your network operator’s
customer service.
