Using Voice Request
If you’re sending or receiving a document and need to speak to the other person during the same phone call, use Voice Request to alert the person at the remote end.
You can also respond to a Voice Request made by the person on the remote end.
Sending a Voice Request

Press V.REQ./POLL while a document is being sent or received.
The V.REQ./POLL indicator lights, and a Voice Request signal is sent to the remote fax machine when transmission/reception finished.

3
When you are finished, hang up the Handset.
4 You can’t talk with the other person and send a fax at the same time.
If you can’t seem to alert the other person, it may be because the remote fax machine doesn’t have the Voice Request feature.
