13) Security
A security code, a phone lock feature, and a call restriction feature prevent
unauthorized use of your phone. A keypad lock prevents unintended key
presses, such as when your phone is in your purse or pocket.
• CHANGE YOUR SECURITY CODE
Important: The default security code is 12345. Nokia highly
recommends that you immediately change this code, write
down the new code, and store it in a safe place, away from
your phone. You cannot activate or use certain phone features
until you successfully enter your security code.
When you enter your security code, an asterisk (*) appears on the screen
each time you press a number key, preventing others from seeing your
code. If you enter the wrong code five times in a row, your phone won’t
accept any entries for the next 5 minutes.
1
Press Menu 4 - 3 - 2 - 4 (Settings > Security settings > Access
codes > Change security code).
2
Enter the security code. (The default code is 12345.) Press OK.
3
Enter a new code (minimum of five numbers). To prevent accidental
emergency calls, don’t pick a code that is similar to an emergency
number. Press OK.
4
To verify your new security code, enter it again. Press OK. The message
Security code changed appears. Store your new code in a safe place,
away from your phone.
