Screen lock
Screen lock overview
Your device’s screen turns off and locks itself if you press the Power/Lock
key. This also happens after the device is left idle for a specified period of
time.
If you press the Power/Lock key when a screen lock is not set, the Home
screen appears immediately.
To ensure security and prevent unwanted access to your device, set a
screen lock.
• A screen lock also prevents unnecessary touch input on the device
screen and reduces battery consumption. We recommend that you
activate the screen lock while not using the device.
