Forgot password to my iphone 11 Pro Max, press and hold of right botton won't put it into recovery mode

I have forgotten my password to my iPhone 11 Pro Max. Have been trying to put it into recovery mode by, ensuring it's turned off, then pressing and holding the right side button until Recovery directions show. All that appears is the Apple which disappears a few seconds later. Still holding the right side button the screen stays black. Please HELP! Thanks in advance

iPhone 13, iOS 17

You will need to restore the device using a computer. The process will erase the device. Later you can restore your data from a recent back-up. Instructions here…
