The Active area (3) is used for information such as the name of the system to which the handset is connected.

This is also the area for window text, for example "missed calls", or to confirm an action.

The Scroll bar (4) is placed to the right of the "Active area". It becomes visible when a menu screen has more than six menus, or if the complete text in a message cannot be displayed on the screen simultaneously.

The Soft key bar (5) is used for Soft keys that are located just beneath the display. The middle Soft key is configured to access the Contact list by default, but can be configured to access the Central Phonebook or the Contacts menu instead.
