Programming System Language Mode and System Language

The System Language is the language callers hear. It can be set to one of three languages: U.S. English, Latin American Spanish, or Canadian French. The System Language Mode can be set to Monolingual or Bilingual. When the System Language Mode is set to Monolingual, callers hear system prompts in one of the three languages (the language that is programmed as the System Language). When the System Language Mode is set to Bilingual, callers hear system prompts in two of the three languages. The first language the caller hears is the Primary Language. The Secondary Language is the alternate language the caller can hear by pressing . When a system is in Bilingual Mode, users can include instructions in their Personal Greeting telling callers to press to hear system prompts in the alternate language.
