To verify K validity, press Select. The display will show one 
of the following messages:
• K is Valid
 – the infrastructure can authenticate your 
MTM800E.
• K is Invalid
 – the infrastructure shall not authenticate your 
MTM800E. Please call your Service Provider to restore K 
to your MTM800E.
It takes a minute for this feature to delete all the enryption keys 
from the radio. During this time please do not remove the 
battery.
Using this feature will disable the terminal,

enable the terminal.
Deletion should be performed in idle TMO/DMO or Emergency 
Operation.
