Activating the answering machine connection

Activating the answering machine connection

Before you go out, activate the answering machine connection as follows:

1 Set the reception mode to A.M.

RECEPTION

TEL FAX

MODE

TEL/FAX A.M.

2 Set your answering machine to auto answer.

Your answering machine must be set to answer on a maximum of two rings. If not, you may not be able to receive faxes sent by automatic dialling.

If your answering machine has a toll saver function, make sure that it will answer by the fourth ring.

How answering machine mode operates

While you are out, all of your incoming calls will be answered by the answering machine and its outgoing message will play. Voice callers can leave a message. During this time, your fax will quietly monitor the line. If your fax detects a fax tone or a duration of silence greater than four seconds, it will take over the line and begin reception.

When you return and turn off your answering machine, be sure to change the reception mode back to FAX, TEL, or TEL/FAX!
