1.4.1 ADJUSTING THE BACKLIGHT
The backlight of screen and keypad helps ease reading under dim environments. It can
be turned on and adjusted decreasingly or increasingly by the following key combinations.
Keep pressing the key combination until the contrast is decreased or increased to a
desired level.
Note: Using backlight while on battery power will substantially reduce battery power. We
suggest that you dim the backlight while working in a well-lit area or have it set to
be automatically turned off when not in use.
