Customizing Your Phone

During off hours, the touch screen displays “Off Hours Mode” on the status bar.

During power-saving mode, the LED on the top-right of the phone slow-blinks red to indicate that the phone has power and is ready to use, but is in power-saving mode. Your phone will exit power-saving mode if the camera detects motion or a phone event occurs (for example, an incoming call or message).

If a screen saver is enabled on your phone, power-saving mode will still occur. For example, if a screen saver is set up to display after the phone is idle for five minutes, and power-saving mode is set up to turn off the touch screen after the phone is idle for 15 minutes, the touch screen will turn off 10 minutes after the screen saver starts (if the camera doesn’t detect motion).

The power-saving settings you can update are:

•Office Hours—When you start work and how long you are in the office each day.

•Timeouts—The period of time the phone should be idle before the touch screen turns off.

•User Detection—The sensitivity of the camera to detect motion so that the phone can enter power-saving mode (if it doesn’t detect motion) or exit power-saving mode and display the idle screen (if it detects motion).
