Confirming a Dial Tone, Dialling Through a Switchboard | Canon L290

Confirming a Dial Tone*

This feature allows you to set your FAX to listen for and detect a dial tone in the middle of a fax/telephone number before dialling the rest of the number. This is called Dial tone detection.

Follow this procedure for dial tone detection 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 dial tone detection is required.

2Open the one-touch speed dial panel and press D.T. for dial tone detection.

•A small dot indicates where the FAX will wait for the dial tone.

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

•If you enter the wrong number, press Clear and start again from step 1.

4Continue with the operation you are performing.
