Language Choice
Considerations and Constraints

After a System Reset (cold start), the system language reverts to the default
setting, English.
In a system release prior to Release 1.1, if a user attempts to set the language on
a telephone, he or she hears a reorder tone or an error beep.
When the system and extension language selections are different, the extension
language takes precedence.

Language choice is supported only on MLX telephones.
Because the extension language takes precedence over the system language,
Alarm Clock (display telephones only) and Reminder differ, depending on the
language used at an extension. When the extension language is set for English or
the system language has been set for English and no extension language
selection has been programmed, MLX telephone users set the Alarm Clock and
Reminder features using 12-hour time (a.m. or p.m.). When the extension
language is French or Spanish, or the system language is set for French or
Spanish and no extension language has been chosen, the MLX telephone user
sets the Alarm Clock and Reminder features using 24-hour time. Language
choice affects only the Reminder feature on MLX-10 and MLX-5 nondisplay
telephones.
