Nokia 2170 Mobile Secrets:

(170-2213/4) Security

The 170-2213 and the 170-2214 are both the same telephone. The only difference is where they are sold.

Security Code:

Your phone will prompt you for a five-digit security code to enter certain features. The factory default code is 12345, and that is what your phone will accept until it is changed.

If your service provider hasn’t already changed your security code, it’s recommended you have it changed immediately. See “To change your security code (Menu 5 3)” below.

Note: When entering your security code, ** will appear on the display to keep others from viewing your code.

If you make a mistake entering the code,

Erase the incorrect digit by pressing CLR or press and hold CLR to exit the current function.

What if you enter the wrong security code?

You can still enter it again. But if you enter the wrong security code five times in a row, your phone will activate a security timer.

If this happens, your phone will not accept a security code for about five minutes, even if you enter the correct one. You can still use your phone, but any attempts to enter the security code will reset the timer.

Once the timer has elapsed, you may re-enter the correct security code to access security code protected features.

Note: Your phone must remain on during the five minute security timer or the timer will reset for another five minutes.

If your phone is locked and you switch your phone off and back on again, you must enter the lock code.

Menu 5 4 1, Restrict outgoing calls

Allowed means that all calls can be made as usual.
