00:00: This presentation will guide you through the essential steps for making calls
00:03: using your desk phone.
00:05: We'll cover everything from initiating a call to dialing internal and external
00:09: numbers effectively.
00:11: Welcome to this guide on making calls with your desk phone.
00:14: We'll walk you through the simple process of using your RingCentral-enabled device to
00:18: connect with colleagues and external contacts.
00:21: This session ensures you can confidently manage your daily communications.
00:27: To begin a call,
00:27: you have two primary options on your RingCentral desk phone.
00:31: You can either pick up the handset, which is the traditional method, or press the
00:35: speaker button for a hands-free experience.
00:38: Both methods will activate the phone line, allowing you to proceed with dialing.
00:44: Once your line is active, the next step is to dial the desired number using the
00:48: keypad.
00:49: For internal calls,
00:50: you can typically dial the full number or, if applicable,
00:53: the last four digits of their RingCentral extension.
00:56: It's important to note that dialing a four-digit extension is specifically for VOA
01:01: SELA users.
01:03: For all other internal calls, please use the full extension.
01:07: When making external calls, it's crucial to dial the complete phone number, including
01:11: the area code.
01:13: For example, if you're calling a number like 504-123-4567, you would enter all ten
01:20: digits directly into the dialpad.
01:22: This ensures your call is routed correctly to its destination outside of our
01:26: internal network.
