| Log in from anywhere
|
From a phone connected to your company's system, dial the system
extension, then enter your extension and password.
From any phone not connected to your company's system, dial the
complete phone number, including local prefix (and the area code if
long distance), then enter your extension and password.
|
| Log in quickly
|
From your phone, dial the system extension, press # only (you don't
need to type your extension), and enter your password.
|
| Log in after leaving a message
|
After you get the greeting for another user's voice mailbox, you
can press * R or * 7 to log into your voice mailbox. Press * 7 immediately
or leave a message and then press * 7. This tip is especially useful
for long distance or pay phone calls because you can leave and get
messages with one phone call.
|
| Log in more than once on the same call
|
After getting messages from a long distance call or a pay phone,
press * * R or * * 7 to let another user log into his or her voice
mailbox without your hanging up first. This tip saves you money because
two or more users can get messages with one phone call.
|
| Avoid obvious passwords
|
Do not use as a password:
Ascending or descending digits (like 1234 or 4321)
The same digits (for example, 0000)
Your name or initials (for example, 5646 for John)
The current year (for example, 1993)
Your extension (for example, extension 3455, password 3455)
A reverse extension (for example, extension 3455, password
5543)
An identification number such as your social security number,
employee ID, or room number.
Also, do not put your password on a programmable function key
or speed-dial key.

| Dial ahead

If you know what buttons to push, push them without waiting for
the system to respond. You can often push several buttons in advance.
 Note You can't bypass error beeps and important system messages.
