The following options, 4 and 5, are available only when Multiple Call Waiting is enabled for your extension. See “Multiple Call Waiting” on page 8. These features both require activation as discussed in the preceding paragraph.
•4 to record an Initial Greeting.
Callers will hear the Initial Greeting when placed in your personal queue. Example: “Hi, this is Mary Smith. I’m on the other line at the moment. If you would like to hold, please stay on the line. To leave a message, press pound (#) at any time. Press 0 for the operator.”*
The system default Initial Greeting is: “<your directory name> is on the phone and will be with you as soon as possible. You may hold or press the # key to leave a message.”
•5 to record a Subsequent Greeting.
Callers in your personal queue will hear the Subsequent Greeting every 30 seconds. Example: “Hi, I’m still on the other line. Please continue to hold or press pound (#) to leave a message. Press 0 for the operator.”*
The system default Subsequent Greeting is: “<your directory name> is still on the phone. You may continue holding or press # to leave a message.”
*Even if you have recorded your personal greeting, the default system greeting is used until you select and thus activate your personal greeting. This also applies to the Initial and Subsequent greetings described below.
