If Fax Detect is On (default setting): 6
The machine receives fax calls automatically,
even if you lift the handset of an extension or
external phone. When you see Receiving
on the LCD or when you hear ‘chirps’ through
the handset of an extension phone connected
to another wall socket/phone socket, just
replace the handset and your machine will do
the rest.

The machine will only receive the fax call if
you answered it using the machine’s handset.
If Fax Detect is Off: 6
When you hear a fax tone through the
handset, you have to press Mono Start or
Colour Start on the machine.
If you are not at your machine, press l 5 1

phone. (See Operation from extension
telephones on page 44.)
