Go to the "Security and Privacy" section. 3. open "Advanced Settings" - "Encryption and accounts". 4. click on "Set lock" and select which SIM card you want to set a pin code for. 5. Enter the default password. Usually it is simple, like 0000 or 1234, but better check with your operator. 6. 6. To change it, press "Change SIM card PIN", then enter the old password and the new one twice.
