You can set your phone to ask for the PIN code

when you switch it on.
If you forget the codes or they aren't supplied

with your card, contact your network service

provider.
If you type in the code incorrectly 3 times in a

row, you need to unblock the code with the PUK

or PUK2 code.

PUK or PUK2

These are required to unblock a PIN or PIN2 code.
If not supplied with your SIM card, contact your

network service provider.

Security code (lock code, password)

This helps you protect your phone against

unauthorised use.
You can set your phone to ask for the lock code

that you define. The default lock code is 12345.
Keep the code secret and in a safe place,

separate from your phone.
If you forget the code and your phone is locked,

your phone will require service. Additional

charges may apply, and all the personal data on

your phone may be deleted.
For more info, contact the nearest care point for

your phone, or your phone dealer.

This is used to identify phones in the network.

You may also need to give the number to your

care point services.
