IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Use of Passwords
Your mobile phone and SIM card have various passwords. These passwords avoid
unauthorized use of your phone and SIM card. You can change the PIN, PIN2 and
phone password in Settings > Security settings.
Phone Code
. The factory setting for the phone code is 0000. If phone lock is enabled, you will be
asked to input the phone password when you switch on your phone.
PIN (4 to 8 digits)
The PIN (Personal Identification Number) is usually supplied with the SIM card.
When the PIN code request is enabled, the password is asked every time the phone
is turned on.
If a wrong PIN is entered3 times in a row, the SIM card will be locked and you will
need to use the PUK to unlock it. PUK is usually set by the network operator.
1. Enter the correct PUK to unlock the SIM card, and then enter the new PIN and
press OK.
2. If you are prompted to enter the new PIN again, enter it and press OK.
3. If the PUK is correct, the SIM card will be unlocked and the PIN will be reset.
PUK (8 digits)
The PUK (Personal Unblocking Key) code is required to change a blocked PIN code.
Please contact your network operator for the code.
Note: if you input wrong PUK code ten times in succession, the SIM card will
become invalid and you have to consult with your network operator for a new SIM
card.
PIN2 (4 to 8 digits)

Cost, Fixed Dial and so on. Please consult your network operator to confirm
whether your SIM card supports these services or not.
Three times wrongful PIN2 code input will cause the SIM card to be locked and you
will need to use the PUK2 to unlock it.
1. Enter the correct PUK2 to unlock PIN2, and then enter the new PIN2 and press
OK.
2. If you are prompted to enter the new PIN2 again, enter it and press OK.
PUK2 (8 digits)

invalid and you need to consult with your network operator for a new SIM card.
