Examples of these types of Alphanumerical PINs are:
• For “Password” you would press the following keys:
7(pqrs) 2(abc) 7(pqrs) 7(pqrs) 9(wxyz) 6(mno) 7(pqrs) 3(def)
• For “iStorage” you would press:
4(ghi) 7(pqrs) 8(tuv) 6(mno) 7(pqrs) 2(abc) 4(ghi) 3(def)
Using this method, long and easy to remember PIN CODES can be created.
Password Tip: You can create a word, name, phrase or any other Alphanumerical PIN combination by simply pressing
the key with the corresponding letters on it.
