You will not be able to use the Phone dialer or the data connection until you enter the correct PIN. To enable the SIM card PIN 1. On the Home screen, slide to the Settings tab and then tap Communications. 2. On the Comm Manager screen, tap Phone to open the Phone Settings screen. 3. Tap PIN Code. 4. Enter the PIN, tap OK, and then tap OK on the message box. Tips • To change the PIN, tap Change PIN on the Phone Settings screen. • Emergency calls can be placed at any time, without requiring a PIN. Protecting your phone with a password You can help keep your data more secure by requiring a password every time the phone is turned on. To set a password 1. Tap Start > Settings > Lock. 2. Select the Prompt if phone unused for check box, and then specify the idle time before the phone requires a password. If you choose 0 Minutes, you will need to input the password every time you wake the phone up from Sleep mode. For more information, see "Switching to Sleep mode" in Chapter 1. 3. In the Password type box, select the type of password you would like to use. Tip If your phone is configured to connect to a network, use an alphanumeric password for increased security.
