		When a user presses the minus (–) side of the
		Volume button to reduce the ringer volume in an
		on-hook state, the volume decreases only to the
		configured minimum volume-level setting. When
		the minimum volume level is reached, no status
		message appears.
		After a system restart, the minimum ringer volume
		resets to the minimum ringer-volume setting that is
		received from the configuration file. If you
		configure a new minimum volume level after the
		last startup and the end user had previously set the
		minimum ringer volume lower, the ringer volume
		will be set to the minimum value from the
		configuration file, not to the level set by the user.
		This feature does not apply to handset, speaker,
		and headset volumes during calls.
