Use Power-Saving Mode
By default, power-saving mode, which turns off the touchscreen to conserve energy, is disabled on the
CX5500 system. When you enable power-saving mode, your phone’s touchscreen turns off after the
system has been idle for a certain period of time. You can configure the period of time that the phone is
