Code Error
appears. Start again at step 2 and be careful to enter the correct
code. If you enter the wrong code 3 times in a row, the PIN code is
blocked. To unblock the PIN code, you need a Personal Unblocking
Key (PUK).
• PUK CODES
The PUK (Personal Unblocking Key) and PUK2 codes are 4- to 8-digit codes
that also usually come from your service provider along with the SIM card.
The PUK code unblocks a blocked PIN code, and the PUK2 code unblocks
a blocked PIN2 code.
If you block your phone, you may need to contact your service provider.
When you enter the PUK code given by your service provider, the phone
will ask you to enter and then confirm a new PIN code.

The default security code is 12345.

accept the correct code for 5 minutes.
