Backlight

A backlight illuminates the display and the keypad. When you press any

key or open the slide, the backlight turns on. It turns off if no key is

pressed within a given period of time, depending on the Backlight timeout

menu option. After backlight timeout, the display turns off to conserve

your battery power. To specify the length of time the backlight is active,

set the Backlight timeout menu option (Menu 9.2.2). See page 101 for

further details.

small size phone where the display screen is visible at all times.

On-Screen Icons

The table below describes various display indicators or icons that appear

on the phone’s display screen.

Icon Description

Indicates the strength of the signal.

nn

Note Conversation quality may vary depending on the strength

of the signal. When the signal is weak, i.e. the display

indicator shows one or two bars, the quality may worsen

producing metallic voices, no sound or in some cases the

line may go dead. To avoid these problems we recommend

you check the strength of the signal on the display screen.

Should the display indicator fail to show any bars, this

means there is no coverage by your network operator.

Hence the name of the operator is not shown on the display

screen. No calls can be made, messages sent/received or

any network service used under these conditions.

Should some bars be shown on the display screen but

WITHOUT the name of your network operator, this means

that the telephone is working on another operator’s

network in order to guarantee emergency calls only.
