Record a greeting message on the answering machine.
Example: “This is (your name, business and/or telephone number). We are unable to
answer the phone right now. To send a fax, start transmission. To leave a
message, please speak after the beep. Thank you.”

We recommend you record a message up to 10 seconds long, and do not pause for more
than 4 seconds during the message. Otherwise, both machines will not function correctly.

If you set to FAX ONLY mode, change the ring setting in FAX ONLY mode to
more than 4 (feature #06 on page 54). Using FAX ONLY mode will allow you to receive
faxes if the answering machine is full.
