Using the Voice Mail System
19
You can change your temporary greeting anytime you wish to let callers know about any
schedule changes. It's a good idea to create a temporary greeting every day—it shows callers
that you really do use voice mail. You can also leave the name of a backup person if you will
not be available to answer calls.
About Bilingual Greetings
Callers to a bilingual system can change the language of the spoken prompts by pressing the
Language toggle key. This does not change the language of your greeting. Contact your
Administrator for more information.
If your system is bilingual, you may want to record a bilingual greeting. You can use this example
as a guide (in this example, the Language toggle key is 8):
“You have reached Christine Conner. Vous avez joint la boîte vocale de Christine Conner.
I can't answer the phone right now, so please leave your name, number, and a short
message. Je ne peux prendre votre appel pour le moment. Veuillez composer le 8 et laisser
votre nom et numéro, ainsi qu'un court message. If you need immediate assistance, press
0. Pour obtenir de l'aide immédiatement, composez le 0.
