8.1Recording your greeting message

You can record your own greeting message for TAM/FAX mode, for a maximum of 16 (default) or 60 seconds in length. We recommend you record a message of less than 12 seconds to make it easier to receive faxes.

{STOP} {ERASE} {GREETING} {MIC}

1Press and hold {GREETING} until the unit announces you to start recording.

L A long beep will sound.

2Speak clearly about 20 cm away from {MIC}. L The display will count up the recording

time.

3To stop recording, press {GREETING}.

LThe unit will repeat your message.

LYou can also stop recording by pressing

{STOP}.

Note:

LYou can change the maximum TAM/FAX greeting message recording time to 60 seconds (feature #54 on page 69).

–If you change the setting to 60 seconds, we recommend that you tell the caller in your TAM/FAX greeting message to press {*}{9} before starting fax transmission.

–If you change the setting from 60 seconds to 16 seconds, your greeting message will be deleted. The pre-recorded greeting message will be played when a call is received.

LThe unit will play the greeting message.

8.1.1Erasing your recorded greeting message

Press {GREETING}, and then press {ERASE} while your greeting message is played.

Note:

L If you erase your TAM/FAX greeting message, the pre-recorded greeting message will be played when a call is received.

8.1.2Pre-recorded greeting message

If you do not record a greeting message, one of two pre-recorded messages will be played when a call is received, depending on the caller’s recording time (page 61, or feature #10 on page 66).

To check the pre-recorded greeting, press {GREETING}.

–When the recording time is set to “1 MINUTE”/“1 Minute” or “NO LIMIT”/“No Limit”, the unit will play a greeting message asking callers to send faxes or leave messages.

–When the recording time is set to “GREETING ONLY”/“Greeting Only”, the unit will play a greeting message asking callers to call again.
