Quick settings for interruptions
There are three modes available for interruptions on your device:
Silent
,
Priority
and
Sound
. Within each mode, you can determine how and when notifications can
interrupt you, if at all. For example, you can set your device to only show you priority
notifications during the hours you’re at work or block all notifications while you’re
taking a nap. You can get quick access to the basic interruption and sound settings
by pressing the volume key up or down.

example, a flashing white light means there is a new message or a missed call. The
notification light is enabled by default but can be disabled manually.
When the notification light is disabled, it only lights up when there is a battery status warning,
for example, when the battery level goes below 15 percent.
