Recording an outgoing message (OGM)

1	Record 5 seconds of silence at the beginning of your message. This allows your machine time to listen for fax tones.
2	Limit your speaking to 20 seconds.
3	End your 20-second message by giving your Remote Activation code for people sending manual faxes. For example: “After the beep, leave a message or send a fax by pressing 51 and Start.”

Note

•	You need to turn the Remote Codes setting to On to use the Remote Activation code 51. (See Using remote codes.)
•	We recommend beginning your OGM with an initial 5 second silence because the machine cannot hear fax tones over a loud voice. You may try leaving out this pause, but if your machine has trouble receiving faxes, then you should re-record the OGM to include it.
