In the Sensus Connect menu: Select Settings and then Internet settings.

In the Sensus Connect menu: Select Car modem and uncheck Lock SIM card.

In the Sensus Connect menu: Enter your PIN code again.

The PIN code lock is now disabled.

Forgotten PIN code and/or PUK code

If you do not know the current PIN code and/or PUK code, contact your mobile provider. They can provide the PIN and/or PUK code.

Data is transferred (data traffic) when using the Internet, and this may involve a cost.

Activation of data roaming may involve further charges.

Contact your network operator about the cost for data traffic.
