also change the PIN code, PIN2 code, lock code, and barring password.
Avoid using codes that are similar to emergency numbers, such as 112, to prevent accidental dialling of the emergency number.
Codes are shown as asterisks. When changing a code, enter the current code, and then the new code twice.
Defining device lock settings
Important: In offline profile you cannot make (or receive) any calls, or use other features that require GSM network
coverage. To make any calls, you must first activate the phone function by changing the profile. You may, however, be
able to make an emergency call in offline profile by pressing the power key on the cover of the device and then entering
the official emergency number. This can be done using the cover phone interface only, not the communicator interface.
If the device has been locked, enter the lock code to activate the phone function. When the device is locked, calls may
still be possible to the official emergency number.
Making an emergency call in offline profile or when the device is locked requires that the device recognizes the number
to be an official emergency number. It may be advisable to change the profile or unlock the device by entering the
lock code before you make the emergency call.
To define device lock settings, select
Security
>
Device security
, and select the
Device lock
page.
Define the following:
•
Autolock period
— You can set a time-out after which the device is automatically locked and can be used only if the correct
lock code is entered. When the device is locked, calls may still be possible to the official emergency number programmed
into your device. You can also answer incoming calls.
•
Lock code
— Press
Change
to change the lock code. The new code must be 5 to 10 digits long. The preset code is 12345. To
avoid unauthorized use of your device, change the lock code. Keep the new code secret and in a safe place separate from
your device.
•
Lock if SIM card is changed
— You can set the device to ask for the lock code when an unknown SIM card is inserted into your
device. The device maintains a list of SIM cards that are recognized as the owner's cards.
•
Allow remote locking
— If you set this option to
Yes
, you can lock the device by sending a predefined text message from
another phone.
To create a remote locking message, select
Security
>
Device security
. Set the option
Allow remote locking
to
Yes
, enter your
lock code, and enter text for the remote locking message in the
Message
field. Confirm the message, and press
Done
. The remote
locking message is case-sensitive and can be 5 to 20 characters or digits long. Press
Reboot
to restart the device and for the
changes to take effect.
