SIM card lock

The SIM card lock protects your subscription, but 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 a “PIN” (Personal
Identity Number) every time you turn on your phone.
If you enter your PIN incorrectly three times in a row, the
SIM card is blocked. This is indicated by the message

PIN

blocked

. To unblock it you need to enter your “PUK”

(Personal Unblocking Key). Your PIN and PUK are
supplied by your operator.

Phonelock

The phonelock protects the phone against unauthorized

phonelock code (0000) to any four- to eight-digit personal
code. The phonelock can be set to on, automatic or off.
