Screen saver
SCREEN SAVER
The screen saver is designed to maintain the
quality of your Vertu phone's display throughout its
lifetime. It ensures that the contents of your display
are regularly updated and avoids leaving any pixels
(such as those that form the charge or signal
strength icons) in a constantly active state. If pixels
are held contantly active for a long time, they can
become ‘ghosted’ on the display when they are
supposed to be inactive or appear duller when they
are active.
The screen saver is automatically activated after a
delay since the last key was pressed. You can set
this delay to suit your preferences. This delay can
be set from 25 seconds to 1 hour. To exit the
screen saver, press either of the
S E L E C T I O N
keys.
When the screen saver is activated, the current
display contents are hidden and the screen saver
display is shown. If a key is pressed while the
screen saver is active, the display contents are
automatically restored and no information is lost.
The vertical position of the screen saver in the
display is shifted every minute to ensure that the
screen saver itself does not remain static.
In addition to a key press, some events may trigger
the suspension of the screen saver. For example, if
you connect the charger, the screen saver is
suspended to display the charging confirmation
message. After the event, the screen saver waits
for the delay time and becomes active again.

has been received or a call
