Connecting the Power Cord

•This fax must be earthed using a 3-pin plug.

• Since the machine is earthed through the power outlet, you can protect yourself from potentially hazardous electrical conditions on the telephone network by keeping the power to your machine on when you connect it to a telephone line. Similarly, you can protect yourself when you want to move your machine, by disconnecting the telephone line first, and then the power cord.

•Lightning and power surges can damage this product! We recommend that you use a quality surge protection device on the AC power line as well as on the telephone line, or unplug the lines during a lightning storm.

Memory Storage

Your machine is equipped with an internal battery that will keep the date and time information for up to about 15 hours (FAX-T76), about 9 hours (FAX-T74) after power has been cut off. After that time, the date and time will be lost and you will have to re-enter the information. In the event of a power failure, all settings in the INITIAL SETUP, SETUP RECEIVE, SETUP SEND, SET QUICK-DIAL, REMOTE FAX OPT and SETUP TAD functions are stored permanently except

POLLING RX, CONTRAST, RESOLUTION, OVERSEAS MODE, CALL RESERVE, TIMER and POLLED TX.

On the FAX-T76, it will retain the data for Out-of-Paper Reception, Memory Transmission and Message Manager for up to 6 hours after a power interruption.

Setting the Date and Time

The screen displays, the date and time you set, whenever the machine is in stand-by mode. It will print the date and time on every fax you send.

In the event of a power failure, the machine maintains date and time information for about 15 hours. All other settings remain unaffected.
