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 your message around 10 seconds long and not to pause for more than 4 seconds during the message. Otherwise, both machines will not function correctly.
