Access codes

If you forget any of the access codes, contact your

service provider.

Personal identification number (PIN) code — This

code protects your SIM card against

unauthorised use. The PIN code (4 to 8 digits) is

usually supplied with the SIM card. After three

consecutive incorrect PIN code entries, the code

is blocked, and you need the PUK code to unblock

it.

UPIN code — This code may be supplied with the

USIM card. The USIM card is an enhanced version

of the SIM card and is supported by UMTS mobile

phones.

PIN2 code — This code (4 to 8 digits) is supplied

with some SIM cards, and is required to access

some functions in your device.

Lock code (also known as security code) — The

lock code helps you to protect your device

against unauthorised use. You can create and

change the code, and set the device to request

the code. Keep the new code secret and in a safe

place separate from your device. If you forget the

code and your device is locked, your device will

require service and additional charges may

apply. For more information, contact a Nokia Care

point or your device dealer.

Personal unblocking key (PUK) code and PUK2

code — These codes (8 digits) are required to

supplied with the USIM card, contact the operator
