Security settings
PIN code request: On / Off — If you set the PIN code request on, the
communicator requests the code every time the phone is turned on by
pressing
. This setting cannot be changed if the phone is switched off or if
there is no valid SIM card inserted.
If you enter the PIN code incorrectly three times in a row, you will need a PUK
code to unblock the SIM card. When the SIM card is blocked, you cannot send
or receive any documents or calls, except emergency calls. Otherwise, the
communicator can be used normally.
Autolock period: Autolock off/1/2/5/15/30/60 minutes — Determines the
security time-out period, after which the communicator will lock. The timer is
reset by any input, calls, data transfer, printing, etc.
SIM change security: On / Off — When active, every time the phone is switched
on this security option checks whether the SIM card in the communicator has
been changed. If the SIM card has been changed and the new SIM card has
not been used with your communicator previously, the communicator locks
itself until the lock code is correctly entered. The communicator recognises
five different SIM cards as the owner’s cards.
PIN code — This setting allows you to change the PIN code. The changing
procedure is described at the beginning of this "Security" section. The new PIN
code must be 4 to 8 digits long. Changing the PIN code requires that the PIN
code request is set on, the phone is on, and that there is a valid SIM card
inserted in the communicator.
PIN2 code — This setting enables you to change the PIN2 code. The PIN2 code
is required to access some functions, such as the call cost settings, which
must be supported by your SIM card. If you enter an incorrect PIN2 code three
times in succession, you will need a PUK2 code to unblock the PIN2 code. The
length of the PIN2 code is 4 to 8 digits.

Note: Some SIM cards do
not allow you to turn the

Lock code — This setting allows you to change the lock code. The changing
procedure is described at the beginning of this "Security" section. The new
code must be 5 digits long.
If you key in an incorrect lock code several times in succession, the
communicator must be sent back to the dealer to be unlocked.
Barring password — This setting allows you to change the barring password. The
new code must be 4 digits long. To change the password, the phone must be on
and within the network coverage, the Call barring service must be activated for
your SIM card which must be valid and inserted in the communicator.
If you enter an incorrect barring password three times, the password is
blocked and you must ask the network operator for a new password.
