Your phone can function as a fax/modem when connected to your PC or laptop computer via the optional DLR-3 Data Cable (available through your local Nokia dealer). You must also have the appropriate fax or data software installed and configured to send and receive data or faxes through your phone.

Can I receive a data or fax call while a voice call is in progress?

Yes. Your phone will display either Data call or Fax call, depending on the type of incoming call. If no cable is connected, the phone will display Fax call, connect data cable or Data call, connect data cable. If you have Caller ID, the caller’s name or number will also be displayed.

You must first terminate the voice call, then launch the appropriate data or fax software and allow the software to accept the incoming call.

Can I receive other calls while a data or fax call is in progress?

No. The caller will receive a busy signal.
