Illuminated Keypad
Your keypad lights whenever the phone is turned on, a call
is received, or a key is pressed. To help conserve battery

display and keypad backlighting will turn off after 16
seconds if no key is pressed. You may reactivate the display
by pressing any key or opening the keypad cover. The
display and keypad backlighting remain lit during menu
use.
