Receiving a Fax
Notes:
¥If you have set your machine to ANS/FAX mode and your answering machine
is switched off, or no answering machine is connected to the machine, the
machine will automatically go into fax receive mode after 10 rings.
¥If your answering machine has a Ôuser-selectable ring counterÕ, set the
machine to answer incoming calls within 4 ring.
¥If you are in TEL mode (manual reception) when the answering machine is
connected to your machine, you must switch off the answering machine, or
the outgoing message from the answering machine will interrupt your phone
conversation.
Receiving Manually in TEL Mode
1. Press Rcv.Mode until the display shows ÔTEL.Õ
2. When the telephone rings, pick up the handset and answer it.
3. If you hear a fax tone, or if the person on the other end asks you to
receive a document, press Start on the machine.
Or, press the buttons Ф 9 Х (star-nine-star) on the extension
telephone.
Ф 9 Ф is the remote receive start code preset at the factory. The first

character to whatever you choose. For more information, see page

4. Replace the handset. The machine begins receiving and returns to
Standby mode when reception is complete.
Note: If your machine is not equipped with handset, answer the voice call
with an extension phone connected to the EXT.LINE jack.
