time you unlock your Phone. A lock screen password helps to protect your private information if your

Phone is lost or accessed by an unauthorised user.

Set a lock screen password: Open Settings, go to Security & privacy > Screen lock &

passwords, and set the type of lock screen password you prefer.

l Set a PIN: A PIN number is a sequence of digits. Entering a PIN to unlock your Phone is quick and

simple. For better security, use a long sequence of random numbers as your PIN. Go to Set lock

screen password, follow the prompts to set up a PIN. Alternatively, touch Change unlock

unlock method > Pattern and draw the same pattern twice. The pattern must connect at least 4

dots.

l Set a password: A password made up of numbers, letters, and special characters is more secure

than a PIN or pattern. For better security, use a password with 8 or more characters that includes

numbers, letters, and special characters. Be sure to memorize the password so that you don't get

locked out of your Phone if you forget it. Go to Set lock screen password > Change unlock

method > Password, follow the prompts to set up a password.

device. After setting a lock screen password, touch Enrol in the dialog box that pops up and

follow the onscreen prompts to enrol your ngerprints.

l For security reasons, please do not disable the lock screen password: A lock screen

password prevents unauthorised access to your device. For the security of your device, do not

select Disable lock screen password as the screen lock method.

l Regular password prompts help you to remember your password: If you have not

entered your screen lock password for 3 days, the system will require that you enter the

password to unlock your device.

Lock the Screen to Quickly Secure Your Phone

If you don't use your Phone for a set period of time, the screen will turn off and lock. As long as the

screen stays on, you can use your Phone without needing to unlock the screen. Lock your screen

Enable or Disable Location Services

After obtaining the location information permission, apps can obtain your location at any time. If your

location information is obtained by a malicious app, you may be at risk of harm or fraud. You can

enable or disable location services as needed and regularly monitor and manage the allowed

permissions for your apps to protect your privacy and security.

Enable or disable location services: Open Settings, go to Security & privacy > Location

services, and enable or disable Access to my location. When location services are disabled, aside

for pre-installed software (such as Find my Phone), your Phone will stop all apps and services from

collecting and using your location information. The system will ask you to enable location services

when you attempt to use these apps.

l Use Wi-Fi and mobile networks: Calculates your Phone's location using carrier base station

location information or nearby Wi-Fi router location information. The accuracy of the location

information depends largely upon location information gathered from the base station or Wi-Fi

network. Accuracy normally ranges from 100 metres to several kilometres. Network positioning has

low accuracy, but allows for positioning while indoors and uses less battery power.

l Use GPS only: Only uses satellites found by your Phone's GPS to determine your position. No

network connection is needed. GPS satellite positioning is more accurate but also uses more battery.

It is accurate within tens of metres. However, indoor positioning may be inaccurate.

Security and Privacy

l Use GPS, Wi-Fi and mobile networks: Combines the benets of GPS positioning and networking

positioning for accurate indoor and outdoor positioning.

l Features may vary depending on your carrier.

l Huawei only uses location data to provide you with necessary functions and services, not for

the purpose of identifying and collecting your private information.

Enhanced Data Protection: Defend Your Privacy

Worried that your photos, bank account information, or other private data might get leaked if your

Phone is lost or stolen? Huawei Phones now feature security chips in addition to the combined

protection provided by the trusted root key and lock screen password. Whether your data is stored in

a microSD card or internal storage, it will receive the highest level of protection.

Stronger encryption and safeguards: Huawei Phones use a hardware key that cannot be used to

decrypt data when separated from the Phone. Based on the trusted root key, the encrypted

components are incorporated into the memory control chip to enhance the data protection capability

of the hardware. This works together with your lock screen password to protect your private data.

Security and Privacy

When you use microSD les, or other features to encrypt photos, personal information, or other

personal data, the only way your data can possibly be decrypted is if the trusted root key, lock screen

password, and security chip are simultaneously cracked. Not all devices support microSD cards.

Backup and Restoration

important data to a USB storage device.

l To your computer: If you have important data, pictures, or large les, you can back them all up to

Data Backup to a USB Storage Device

If you are running out of storage space on your Phone or you want to back up your important data to

an external storage device, you can connect your Phone to a USB storage device using a USB OTG

cable and back up your data to the storage device. USB storage devices compatible with your Phone
