Want to protect your phone against unauthorized use? Define a security code, and set your phone to lock itself automatically when you’re not using it.

  • On the start screen, swipe down from the top of the screen, and tap ALL SETTINGS > lock screen.
  • Switch Password to On icon, and type in a security code (at least 4 digits).
  • Tap Require a password after, and define the length of time after which the phone locks automatically. Keep the security code secret and in a safe place separate from your phone. If you forget the securitycode and cannot recover it, or if you enter the wrong code too many times, your phone will require service.
