12 Manage phone security
Your phone is equipped with a versatile security system that is intended
to prevent unauthorized use of the phone.
You cannot activate or use certain phone features without having first
successfully entered your phone’s security code.
• The default (preset) security code is 12345.
• Nokia highly recommends that you immediately change this code.
Then, write down and store the new code in a safe place, away from
your phone.
TIPS
•When you enter the security code, a * appears on the screen
each time you press a key. The * prevents others from seeing
your code.
•If you enter the wrong security code five times in a row, your
phone won’t accept any entries for the next five minutes. However,
if you realize that you’ve entered the code incorrectly before
pressing OK, you can use Clear to erase the code, digit by digit,
beginning with the last digit.
• CHANGE YOUR SECURITY CODE
It’s a good idea to change your security code so that others who know the
default code cannot enter the correct code.
1 Press Menu 4-7-2-1 (Settings > Security settings > Access codes
> Change security code).
The Security code field appears.
2 Enter the default security code and press OK.
3 At the message Enter new security code, enter your new security
code and press OK.
