Security code (5 digits)
By default, the security code is not set. You
can use the security code to
– protect your mobile phone against unau-
thorised use even if another mobile
phone’s SIM card is used
– restore the factory settings of your mo-
bile phone
– switch security control by security code
off or on
– change the security code itself.
If you enter an incorrect security code
10 times in succession, the mobile phone is
locked for one hour, before you have
10 more attempts and so on. Only emergen-
cy calls can be made during this hour. If all
attempts fail, contact the manufacturer (see
at the end of this manual).
Barring code (4 digits)
The barring code (also called ’network pass-
word’) is supplied with the SIM card from
your service provider and will be needed to
handle the security with the network. It is
possible to lock some mobile phone features
that interact with the network. The barring
code is required to
– activate or deactivate the barring of calls
– change the barring code itself.
The procedures after having entered an in-
correct barring code vary depending on ser-
vice providers.
