Turning on screen unlock pattern protection
You can set a screen unlock pattern. Once the screen has locked, it needs
to be drawn correctly in order to unlock the screen.

• Follow the onscreen instructions to draw the unlock pattern.
• Touch Continue.
• Draw the same unlock pattern again and touch Confirm.
Turning on numeric PIN protection
You can set a numeric PIN to lock your phone. Once the screen has locked,
it needs to be entered correctly in order to unlock the phone.
• On the Settings screen, touch Security > Screen lock > PIN.
• Enter at least four-digit numbers.
• Touch Continue.
• Enter the same number again and touch OK.
Turning on SIM card PIN protection
A PIN (personal identification number) can prevent other people using your
SIM card without permission. A PUK (personal unlock key) can be used to
unlock a blocked PIN. If an incorrect PIN is entered three times in a row,
your SIM will be blocked. To unblock your SIM, you'll need to enter your
PUK. If the wrong PUK is entered ten times in a row, your SIM will be
blocked permanently. If these two codes were not provided with your SIM
card or if you forget either one, contact Vodafone customer services. If you
turn on SIM card PIN protection, your SIM card PIN needs to be entered
every time you turn on your phone.
• On the Settings screen, touch Security > Set up SIM card lock.
• Mark the Lock SIM card checkbox.
• Enter the SIM card PIN and touch OK to turn on PIN protection.
Hint: To change your SIM card PIN, touch Change SIM PIN.
