• The personal identification number (PIN) code (4 to 8 digits) helps to

protect your SIM card against unauthorized use. The PIN code is
usually supplied with the SIM card. Set the phone to request the PIN
code each time the phone is switched on. See Security on page 71.

• The PIN2 code may be supplied with the SIM card and is required for

some functions.

• The module PIN is required to access the information in the security

module. See Security module on page 105. The module PIN is
supplied with the SIM card if the SIM card has a security module in
it.

• The signing PIN is required for the digital signature. See Digital

signature on page 106. The signing PIN is supplied with the SIM card
if the SIM card has a security module in it.

If you enter an incorrect PIN code three times in succession, the phone
may display
