10-4 Security

If the SIM card has been changed and the

new SIM card has not previously been used

with your communicator, the communicator

locks itself until the lock code, supplied with

the communicator sales package, is correctly

entered. The communicator recognizes five

different SIM cards as the owner’s cards.

PIN code

When the phone interface is switched on,

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. The

PIN code can also be changed in the phone in-

terface Security options menu (Menu 5 6 2).

The PIN code is supplied with the SIM card

(i.e., the network operator who activates your

SIM will give you the PIN code). When the

PIN code request is enabled, the code is re-

quired each time the phone interface is

switched on. The PIN code request must be

turned on to change the code.

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. The lock code

can also be changed in the phone interface

Security options menu (Menu 5 6 1).

The lock code is needed to:

• Lock the communicator (except when the

autolock period is in use).

• Unlock the communicator.

• Change the SIM change security setting.

• Turn the Autolock period on or off.

• Open the Telephone application calling card

settings.

You can find the lock code on a sticker in the

sales package of your communicator. Keep it

secret and in a safe place, separate from the

communicator.

Note: If you enter an incorrect lock code (you will

get a code error message) several times in

succession, or misplace or forget your lock

code, the communicator must be sent back

to the dealer to unlock the device.

Network password

The network password is needed to change

call restrictions, see Chapter 4 "Telephone:

Telephone settings" on page 4-1. You obtain

the password from your network operator

when you subscribe to the service.

When the phone interface is switched on, the

setting in the security section allows you to

change the network password. The new code

must be 4 digits long. The network password

can also be changed in the phone interface

Security options menu (Menu 5 6 4).

If the password is changed correctly, the

communicator requests the network to per-

form the desired operation.

Other codes

PIN2 code (4 to 8 digits)

The PIN2 code can only be changed in the

phone interface Security options menu

(Menu 5 3).

The PIN2 code is supplied with some SIM

cards. The PIN2 code is required to access

some functions, such as call charging unit

counters, which must be supported by the

SIM card. If you enter a wrong PIN2 code

three times in succession, the PIN2 code is

disabled and cannot be used any more.

PUK and PUK2 codes (8 digits)

The PUK is supplied with all SIM cards. This

code is required when you want to change a

disabled PIN code. If you enter a wrong PUK

code ten times in succession, the SIM card is

rejected and you cannot make or receive any

calls, except emergency calls. Contact your

network operator for a new SIM card.

The PUK2 code is supplied with some SIM

cards. The code is required when you want to

change a disabled PIN2 code. If you enter a

wrong code ten times in succession, you will

not be able to access the functions which re-

quire the PIN2 code. To utilize these func-

tions, contact your network operator for a

new card.
