About Receive Mode
Your product has three reception modes:
•In FAX mode, the product answers an incoming call and immediately goes into fax receive mode.
•In TEL mode, you can receive a fax by picking up the handset of the extension phone and then pressing the remote receive code (see page 5.5), or press On Hook Dial (you can hear voice or fax tone from the remote machine) and then pressing Copy/Start on the control panel of your product.
•In ANS/FAX mode, the answering machine answers an incoming call, and the caller can leave a message on the answering machine. If the fax machine senses a fax tone on the line, the call automatically switches to Fax mode.
NOTE: To use the ANS/FAX mode, attach an answering machine to the EXT jack on the back of your product.
The current receive mode is displayed when the product is in Standby mode.
