time period after which the display will power
down if the device remains inactive. This feature
saves the battery and increases the communica-
tor’s operation time. The time-out value can be
between 2 to 15 minutes. The screen power-
down cannot be turned off.
System sounds — System sounds are warning and
error tones, arriving message tone, key click tones
and alarm sounds. The available settings are:
All sounds — Ring (default)/ Beep / Silent/
Silent for. The All sounds setting affects in-
coming call alerts and other alarms on both
interfaces, with the exception of clock alarm.
With Silent for, the communicator remains in
Silent mode until the time you have entered
there has passed (use 24-hour time format).
Ringing volume — Level 1/2 (default)/3/4/5.
Ringing tone — You can select one of the
tones in the pop-up box or compose a special
ringing tone for your telephone in the Extras
application.
Key click — Off / Quiet (default)/ Loud.
Warning tone — On (default) / Off.
Application tones — Calendar alarm, Clock
alarm, Received fax, Received SMS, Received
e-mail.
For each of these individual settings you can
set a specific ring type. You would then be
able to tell by the ring whether you have re-
ceived a fax or a short message, for example.
The clock alarm will sound regardless of the
communicator’s status. For example, when a
phone call is active and the communicator is
used in handsfree operation, all sounds except
the clock alarm are automatically turned off.

and time formats and the measurement unit. The
