Comments:
While the handset of the fax is lifted (off hook), an extension phone
connected directly to the fax cannot be used to speak wit h the oth er pa rt y.
The fax may interrupt a voice call received on an extension phone if the
reception mode is set to ANS and there is a period of silence duri ng t he
conversation. If you are on a tone dial phone, you can prevent this by
pressing any three keys on the phone immediately after you answer. (Note :
Do not enter t he code to ac tivate fax re ception: 5, , .)

Chain Dialling

After lifting the handset, you can dial any combination of Normal Diall ing ,
Rapid Key Dialling and Speed Dialling num ber s. Fo r exa mp le, if you ha ve
stored an area code or an access code for a special service in a Rapid Key,
you can press the Rapid Key for that area code or access code, then dial the
remainder of the number by pressing a Rapid Key, pressing number keys, or
pressing the SPEED DIAL key and entering a two-digit Speed Dial number.

Using the HOLD/SEARCH key

You can use the HOLD/SEARCH key to search for a Rapid Key or Speed
Dial number. First search for the number as desc rib ed in Using the

dialled automat ically (do not press th e START key).

Redial

The last number called can be redialled by pressing the REDIAL key (it is
not necessary to pick up the handset or press the SPEAKER key). When t he
other party answers, pick up the handset to talk.

You can put the other party on hold during a conversation by pressing the
HOLD/SEARCH key. When this is done, they cannot hear you. You can put
the handset back in the cradle without breaking the connection. When you are
ready to speak with them again, pick up the handset. If you did not put the
