Maintenance Mode Pin/Pattern Lock

So I have to bring my Fold 5 in for the power button and was going to put it in maintenance mode. Playing around in it I noticed you could put a pin or pattern on the maintenance mode and you can lock the device down so you would have to unlock it with the created security pin or pattern. I found that I could not unlock the phone in maintenance mode with my normal set pin or pattern to reset it since you need to be in the home screen to change out of maintenance mode. How would you reset the to a base maintenance mode session if a tech set a pin or pattern for the maintenance mode? This is from a perspective that the tech working on the phone is acting malicious and locks the phone in maintenance mode.
