Security code
The security code controls access to features such as the security level and
is supplied with the phone. The preset code is 12345.
Note: If you enter the wrong security code five times in succession,
you will not be able to enter a code for five minutes, even if you
power off the phone between incorrect entries.
Once you change the security code from its preset of 12345, keep the new
code secret, and in a safe place separate from your phone. Use this
procedure to change your security code.

codes > Change security code.

Enter the new security code (up to 10 characters) and select OK.
You are prompted to reenter the new security code for verification.
