Keyguard (locking the keypad)

The Keyguard feature allows you to
“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.

Character

Use

*

This character is used to send command
strings to the network. Contact your service
provider for details.

+

This character is a prefix used for dialing
international numbers.

p

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 bank’s phone
number is 555-1212 and you need to enter
your account number (12345) and password
(6789), you could save this phone number as
5551212p12345p6789.

Note: In digital networks, digits to the right
of the p are sent after a 2.5-second pause. In
analog networks, digits to the right of the p
are not sent until you press Send.

w

This character creates a wait; digits to the right
of the w are not sent until you press Send.
Currently this character cannot be saved.

Notes about Keyguard

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

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

• Keyguard is automatically turned off when the phone is

connected to a car kit.
