4.4 Protecting Your Device
Protect your SIM card with a PIN
You can protect your SIM card from unauthorized use by assigning a PIN
(personal identification number). Your default PIN is 1234.
To change the PIN:
1. On the Phone screen, tap Menu > Options > Phone tab.
2. Select the Require PIN when phone is used check box.
3. To change the PIN at any time, tap Change PIN.
Tip Emergency calls can be placed at any time, without requiring a PIN.
Protect your device with a password
You can help keep your data more secure by requiring a password every
time the device is turned on. You create your own password when you
begin using your device.
To set a device password
1. Tap Start > Settings > Personal tab > Lock.
2. Select the Prompt if device unused for check box, and in the box to
the right, select how long your device must be idle before a password
is required. In the Password type box, select the type of password
you would like to use. Enter the password and, if necessary, confirm
the password.
If your device is configured to connect to a network, use an
alphanumeric password for increased security for your device.
3. On the Hint tab, enter a phrase that will help you remember your
password, but does not allow others to guess your password.
4. Tap OK. The next time the device is turned on, you will be prompted
to enter your password.
Notes • To ensure you can always make emergency calls, do not begin your
password with the digits of your local emergency number.
• The hint will be displayed after the wrong password is entered four times.
• Each time a wrong password is entered, the device response time gets
longer until the device appears to be not responding.
