Encryption provides additional protection i n ca se y our phone is stolen, and may be required or recommended in some organizations. Consult your sy stem adminis trato r bef ore turni ng it on. In many cases the PIN or password you set for encryption is controlled by the system administrator.
Before turning on encryption, prepare as follows:
1. Set a lock screen PIN or password.
2. Charge the battery.

or password. Subsequently, you must enter your PIN or password each time
you power on your phone, to decrypt it.
