Keyguard (locking the keypad)

Using the Keyguard feature you can
“lock” your phone’s keypad so that
accidental keypresses have no effect.
This is handy when your phone is in a
pocket or purse.

Note: Keyguard is not a security feature and will not prevent
unauthorized use of your phone.

To lock the keys

Press Menu 9 or Menu

.

To unlock the keys

Press Unlock

.

p

This character creates a pause. Digits to the
right of the p are sent as touch tones after a
2.5-second pause.

Use this character to save phone numbers of
automated services that require you to enter
a password or other information after the
call is answered. For example, if your voice
mail number at work is 555-1212 and you
need to enter your extension (1234) and
then a password (5678) in order to listen to
your messages, you could save this phone
number as 5551212p1234p5678.

w

This character creates a wait. It works
similarly to the pause character except that
digits to the right of the w are not sent until
you press Send.

Notes about Keyguard

• When Keyguard is on, the only way to answer a call is to

press Answer. Once the call is terminated, keyguard is
reactivated.

• When Keyguard is on, press the power key briefly to turn

your phone’s lights on for 30 seconds.

• When Keyguard is on, calls may be possible to the emergency

number programmed into your phone (e.g. 911 or other
official emergency number). However, one-key emergency
dialing (‘the 9 key’) does not operate.

Note: When Keyguard is active, the only way to make an
emergency call is to dial the emergency number, then
press
Call.

• Keyguard is automatically turned off when the phone

is connected to a handsfree device. Once the phone is
disconnected from the handsfree device, keyguard is
reactivated.
