Reading The Display/Indicators

Your phone's display provides a full range of messages and special 
indicators to assist you with the phone's operation.  Since many of these 
messages contain more characters than your phone can display at one time, 
the phone displays most messages across more than one display.  For 
example, the phone displays EmrgCy CALL then (within about 1 second) on to 
indicate that the Emergency Call feature is turned on.

Note:  When referring to a displayed message, this manual includes the
       entire message all together (such as EmrgCy CALL on).

A few of your phone's many indicators are briefly described below. For a
complete listing of display messages and indicators, see "Display Message
Glossary" in Faxback Doc. # 51384.

Indicates the relative strength of the signal being received by your 
phone.  See "Signal Strength/Service Area" in Faxback Doc. # 51376.

meaning calls cannot be made or received.  See "Signal Strength/Service

system (roaming).  See "Roaming" in Faxback Doc. # 51378.
