Set the Backlight Intensity
You can change the Backlight On intensity and the Backlight Idle intensity separately, and you can 
choose a high, medium, or low intensity, or turn off the backlight entirely. When you change the Maximum 
Intensity, you modify the entire backlight intensity scale. For example, if you decrease the Maximum 
Intensity, the low, medium, and high levels for both Backlight On and Backlight Idle intensities decrease.
Procedure
1. Navigate to Settings > Basic.
2. Select Backlight Intensity > Backlight On Intensity.
3. Select the intensity you want, and select Back.
4. From the Backlight Intensity screen, select Backlight Idle Intensity.
5. Select the intensity you want, and select Back.
6. From the Backlight Intensity screen, select Maximum Intensity.
7. Select Up or Down, or drag your finger along the slider, to increase or decrease the maximum 
intensity.
Set the Backlight Timeout
The backlight automatically turns on with any phone activity. By setting the Backlight Timeout, you can 
determine how long the phone should be idle before the backlight dims to its Backlight Idle intensity. By 
default, the backlight dims after the phone is idle for 40 seconds.
Procedure
1. Navigate to Settings > Basic.
2. Select Backlight Timeout.
3. Select the number of seconds the phone is idle before the backlight dims.
Changing Your Background
By default, your screen displays a blue background named Default. You can change the background 
picture that is displayed on your phone to any image set up by your system administrator. If no 
background images are set up, only the Default is available.
You can also add personal photos on your phone using the Web Configuration Utility or a USB flash 
drive.
This feature is not available on VVX 201 phones. Check with your system administrator to find out if this 
feature is available on your phone.
Change the Background Picture
If your system administrator has pre-loaded your phone with background pictures or you have added 
personal photos onto the phone, you can choose to display a background other than the default.
