- Record your outgoing message:
- If your Brother machine has Digital Cordless Handset (DECT™ Handset), speak clearly toward the microphone on the control panel to record your message. Press STOP/EXIT when finished recording your message. The Message Center (TAD) will play back your outgoing message.
- If not, pickup the handset and record your message. Replace the handset when finished recording your message. The Message Center (TAD) will play back your outgoing message.
For example, "You have reached [your telephone number]. If I am home, I will answer your call in a moment. If you are sending a manual fax, press *51 (*91 for New Zealand), and Start on your fax machine."
