each time you power on the phone.
To enable the phone lock function, do the following:

When the phone is connected to a PC using the USB cable,
options including Mass storage are displayed on the phone
screen.

stored on the phone and the microSD card from the PC’s File
Manager application.
The microSD card and the phone memory appear as removable
disks on the PC. You can do the following:
1. Double-click a disk to open it.
2. Copy, paste, or delete the files on the disk.
3. Disconnect the phone from the PC.
Ensure that you connect and disconnect the USB cable
properly.

may cause permanent damage to the phone memory.
The USB cable can be used to transfer data and charge
your phone. The PC must be running a Windows
based operating system (for example: Windows XP,
Windows 2000, Windows 7). Mac OS systems are not
supported.

PIN and PUK
The personal identification number (PIN) protects your SIM
card from unauthorized use. The PIN Unblocking Key (PUK) is
used to unblock a blocked PIN. Both the PIN and the PUK are
provided with the SIM card. For details, contact your service
provider.

separately.
To enable the SIM1 lock function, do the following:
1. In standby mode, select Menu > Settings > Security
settings > SIM1 security settings > SIM1 lock.

If you repeatedly enter an incorrect PIN, on a specified number
of consecutive attempts, the phone asks you to enter the PUK.

of consecutive attempts, the SIM card becomes permanently
invalid. In that case, contact your service provider for a new SIM
card.
