Remote fax receiving

(using an extension to receive a fax message)

If you have an extension phone on the same line, it is possible to receive a fax message. Using the extension

phone, dial the remote fax activation code.

This saves you from going to the facsimile unit and pressing (START/COPY/SET).

Important:

¡To activate this feature, use a touch tone telephone as the extension phone and enter the remote fax activation code FIRMLY.

¡The remote fax activation code is set to “UU” as a pre-selected setting.
