Getting started 42 Sending and receiving short messages requires that this service is supported by the system you are using and activated for your SIM card, and that the phone number of the message is stored in the settings of the SMS application. Internet access requires that data service is supported by the system you are using and activated for your SIM card. In addition, you must have obtained an Internet access point from an Internet service provider. Access codes The Nokia 9290 Communicator uses several access codes to protect against unauthorized use of your communicator and SIM card. The access codes you need most often are: • the lock code to lock up your communicator, and • the PIN code, which is provided with the SIM card. IMPORTANT: The default lock code is 12345. For security reasons, it is imperative that you change the lock code. Keep the code secret and in a safe place, separate from the communicator. For more information on changing access codes, see section 'Security' on page 230. You can change access codes that are used by both the phone and the communicator interface via either of them, provided that the code can be changed. For further details on access codes, see 'Security' on page 230. The Internet applications of the communicator use passwords and user names to protect against unauthorized use of the Internet and its services. These passwords are changed in the settings of the Internet applications.
