Help me - locked myself out of iphone while setting it up

I'm an idiot.

Got an iphone for my daughter today as a Christmas present. Never used an iphone in my life. I started setting it up and immediately locked myself out.

What can I do?

I haven't set up an apple account yet.

When I set up the passcode I did it in a basic pattern that I wouldn't forget. Hahahahaha. 2 minutes later I obviously have. I'm pretty sure the number layout was different in the set up to when it was actually locked.

I'm locked out for 5 minutes now and I'm terrified of it getting worse and never getting in again.

Is there anything I can do to get back in or does anyone know what the layout is when the passcode is set?

Hope you’ve managed to sort things out by now.

(Generally best to book an appointment at an Apple store, or whichever network provider you use, for help with setting up - if you’re not entirely sure of what you’re doing.)
