PIN requirements:
• Must be between 7-15 digits in length
• Must not contain only repetitive numbers, e.g. (3-3-3-3-3-3-3)
• Must not contain only consecutive numbers, e.g. (1-2-3-4-5-6-7), (7-8-9-0-1-2-3-4), (7-6-5-4-3-2-1)
Examples of these types of Alphanumerical PINs are:
• For “
Password” you would press the following keys:
7 (
pqrs) 2 (abc) 7 (pqrs) 7 (pqrs) 9 (wxyz) 6 (mno) 7 (pqrs) 3 (def)
• For “iStorage” you would press:
4 (gh
i) 7 (pqrs) 8 (tuv) 6 (mno) 7 (pqrs) 2 (abc) 4 (ghi) 3 (def)
Using this method, long and easy to remember PINs can be created.
Password Tip: You can create a memorable word, name, phrase or any other Alphanumerical PIN combination
by simply pressing the key with the corresponding letters on it.
Note: The SHIFT key can be used for additional combinations. SHIFT + 1 is a separate value than just 1.
To create a PIN using additional combinations, press and hold down the SHIFT button whilst entering
your 7-15 digit PIN. e.g. SHIFT + 26756498.
