Customizing Phone Settings
You can personalize your Cisco IP Phone by adjusting settings, as described in the tables below.
Note

•
If you want to restore your previously-saved settings on the phone, choose Settings > more > Restore.

If you want to restore these settings back to those originally stored on the phone when it was manufactured, choose Settings > more > Factory. All your previously saved changes will be reset.
Adjusting the Volume
The table below describes how to adjust and save volume levels on your phone.
If you want to...
|
Then...
|
Adjust the volume level for a call
|
Press the volume button during a call or after invoking a dial tone.
Doing so adjusts the volume level for the currently active audio mode. For example, if you increase the volume while you are using the handset, you have not affected the speaker volume.
Press Save to preserve the new volume as the default level for this audio mode. If you want your phone to keep this volume setting even after a reboot, press the Menu button and choose Settings > Save.
|
Adjust the volume level for the ringer
|
Press the volume button while the handset is in the cradle. The new ringer volume is saved automatically.
|
Tip
If you adjust the handset or speaker volume without saving the change, the volume will revert to the previously saved level the next time you use that audio mode.
Customizing Rings
You can change the sound your phone makes when it rings to suit your tastes and to help you differentiate between your phone ringing and another nearby phone.
If you want to...
|
Then...
|
Change the ring sound
|
Press the Menu button and select Settings > Ring Type. Use the Navigation button to scroll through the ring types and press Play to hear the selected ring type. When you find the ring you want, press Select and OK.

Setting Up Speed Dial Buttons
You can set up to four speed dial buttons on your Cisco IP Phone 7905G and 7912G.
Set up speed dial buttons from your User Options web pages, as described in the table below. (See the "Accessing Your User Options Web Pages" section on page 28 for more instructions.)
Note
Your system administrator can assign speed dial buttons to your phone; he or she can also restrict the number of speed dial buttons that you can configure.
If you want to...
|
Then...
|
Set up speed dial buttons
|
Log in to your User Options web pages, select your device, then choose Add/Update Your Speed Dials from the main menu.
Enter a phone number and label for each available speed dial button. Enter the number exactly as you would need to dial it from your desk phone. For example, enter an access code such as 9 or the area code, if necessary.
The label you enter appears next to the speed dial button on your screen.

Remove a speed dial number

Delete the phone number and associated text in the Add/Update Your Speed Dials window.
