How the Display Works 

The display shows text and icons to give information 
about the status of SmarTalk. The display is blank only if

Text can display name, number, time, date, length of call, 
prompts, and menu options.  
If you have a long SmarTalk, the display looks like this: 

 

If you have a short SmarTalk, the display looks like this:
