Entering Pauses in a Fax/Telephone Number

You may need to enter pauses in a fax/telephone number in the following situations:

–When you dial or register an overseas number. The length and position of the pause depends on the telephone system of your country.

–When your FAX is connected to a switchboard. For details, see p. 3-9.

Follow this procedure to enter pauses during regular dialling or when registering a number for speed dialling:

1When you come to the step that requires you to enter the fax/telephone number, use the numeric buttons to enter the number up to where a pause is necessary.

•If you enter the wrong number, press Clear, then enter the correct number.

2Press Redial/Pause to enter a pause.

•A pause entered within a number (p) is two seconds* long.

•For a longer pause, press Redial/Pause again for another two-second* pause. Alternatively, you can change the length of the pause (￿MIDPAUSESET,

p. 14-6).

3Continue entering the rest of the fax/ telephone number with the numeric buttons.
