- SIM lock
With this SIM lock feature, you can prevent unauthorized use of your phone with an
unknown SIM card.
When you have the SIM lock activated your phone will only work with the SIM card used to
enable the lock. If a new SIM card has been inserted into your phone, "Insert Correct SIM"
will pop up after you power on and enter the PIN. Press the left soft key
and the
SIM lock code will be requested.
If the incorrect code is entered when a new SIM card has been inserted into your phone,
"Insert Correct SIM" will be displayed again, and the phone will not be enabled until the
correct SIM lock code is entered.
If the correct code is entered the SIM card will be recognized and you can use the phone
as normal. The next time your phone is switched on with this newly recognized SIM card,
you will not be asked to enter the SIM lock code again.
Your phone can recognize up to 3 different SIM cards.
To activate the SIM lock you need to key in and save a number only you know as the SIM
lock code. (There is no factory preset SIM lock code). The length of the code must be set
between 8 to 12 digits.
To deactivate the SIM lock you also need to enter the SIM lock code that you previously
saved in your phone memory.
To change the SIM lock code you must firstly deactivate the SIM lock and then enter the
new code you want when activating the SIM lock again.
