About the keypad lock feature
To protect the MP02 against
unauthorised access, and to reduce the
likelihood of keys being unintentionally
pressed while the MP02 is in a pocket or
bag, the keypad can be locked.
In accordance with industry standards, it
is still possible to make a call to
emergency numbers when the keypad is
locked (multiple numbers from around
the world are recognised, and the call is
given connection priority on the cellular
network). Keeping the phone in a case
when not in use can help prevent this
from happening unintentionally. For
more information about calls to
emergency numbers, see p 8.
⏤ Locking and unlocking the keypad
• Press the On/Off button. The screen
will go dark.
• Pressing the On/Off button again will
reactivate the screen and the Home
screen will be displayed; the keypad
will still be locked. Press the key
to unlock it.
Setting the keypad to lock
automatically
The MP02 can be set to lock the keypad
automatically after a specified length of
time.
• From the Main menu, select Settings,
then Preferences, then Auto-lock.
• Select the desired delay (or Never to
deactivate auto-lock).
Passcode protection
The MP02 can be set to require its
passcode to be entered each time the
keypad is unlocked and also before
carrying out a full reset.
Ensure that multiple copies of the
passcode are retained. If the passcode is
forgotten and no copies are available, the
MP02 will need to be returned to Punkt.
for resetting. A fee will apply, and all data
on it will be lost.
⏤ Activating or deactivating the MP02’s
passcode protection
• From the Main menu, select Settings,
then Security, then Passcode.
• Select Enable passcode or Disable
passcode as applicable.
• If this is the first time the passcode is
being activated, use the keypad to
create it (4-6 digits) and press the
key. Repeat to confirm.
⏤ Changing the MP02’s passcode
• From the Main menu, select Settings,
then Security, then Passcode, then
Change passcode.
• Enter the current phone passcode
and press the key.
• Enter a new phone passcode and
press the key. Repeat to confirm.
SIM PIN
The SIM card can be set to require a
passcode (also known as a PIN, which
stands for “Personal Identification
Number). This protects it against
unauthorised use in the MP02 or any
other phone.
The SIM will come with a pre-set
passcode (PIN). This is likely to be
universal for many/all of that company’s
SIMs and therefore public knowledge; it
should be changed immediately on
receipt, even if only to protect it from
unauthorised change.
! Activating PIN protection on the SIM
card
With PIN protection activated, it will be
impossible to use that SIM without
entering its PIN each time any phone in
which it is installed is switched on.
Important: Do not try to guess a SIM
PIN. If an incorrect number is entered
too many times (typically three attempts)
the SIM will become locked and it will
not be possible to use it until a Personal
Unlocking Key (PUK) has been entered.
A PUK can be obtained from the SIM’s
provider.
• From the Main menu, select Settings,
then Security, then SIM PIN.
• Select Enable SIM PIN, enter the
current PIN and press , twice.
