Getting Outside Line

Private branch exchanges (PABX) are typical in many offices and some households. You must dial an outside line access code in order to get a connection to the

EN public telephone network (PSTN) from a PABX.

Enter the outside line access code with which you reach the public telephone network before you enter the desired number or select a stored entry. The outside line access code is usually 0.

Notice

Incorrect Outside Line Access Code

In rare cases, the outside line access code may be a different number or a two-digit number. For older telephone systems, the outside line access code can be R (= Flash). Press R to enter this outside line access code. If the connection to the public telephone network is not possible, contact your telephone system supplier.

Sending Fax Later (= Timer Function)

This function is only available if you have set up your device in such a way that fax messages are sent from the memory (see also chapter on setting up fax messages from the memory, page 61).
