Locking your phone
Locking sensitive phone features using the logout feature
You can lock access to the sensitive features of your phone such as the directory and call lists when you
are not close to your phone. If this feature is setup, a padlock icon will appear in the top right corner of the
screen to indicate whether your phone is locked or unlocked.
To change the password for unlocking your phone and switch this feature on:
1. Press the Setup button.
2. Scroll to 'Set Password' and press 'select'.
3. Enter the current password (if the device is already locked) and enter the new password using the
keypad.
4. Press 'save'. The password will be updated and the phone placed in the unlocked state.
Note: To later remove the phone lock feature after it has been set up, simply change the password back
to the default value (blank).
