SIM card protection
You can lock and unlock each SIM card that you use in your device with a PIN
(Personal Identification Number). When a SIM card is locked, the subscription linked
to the card is protected against misuse, meaning that you have to enter a PIN every
time you start your device.
If you enter the PIN incorrectly too many times, your SIM card will get blocked. You
then need to enter your PUK (Personal Unblocking Key) and a new PIN. Your PIN and
PUK are supplied by your network operator.

Using multiple SIM cards
Your device works with either one or two SIM cards inserted. You get incoming

enable them and select the SIM card that will handle data traffic.
You can forward calls that come in on SIM card 1 to SIM card 2 when SIM card 1 is
unreachable, and vice versa. This function is called Dual SIM reachability. You must
enable it manually. See
