Receiving a Fax 27
BASIC USE
Fax Detect
When you use this feature, you don’t have to press Fax Start when you answer a fax call and hear
calling beeps. Just hold the handset and wait for several seconds. When you see RECEIVE on the
fax screen or when you hear “chirps” through the handset of an extension phone connected to
another wall jack, just replace the handset, and your machine does the rest (see Page 6 fig.2).
• Selecting ON allows the machine to receive fax calls automatically, even if you lift the handset
of an extension phone, an external phone, a phone or TAD connected to the machine.
• Selecting SEMI lets the fax machine receive the call only if you’ve answered it at the machine.
• Selecting OFF means you will have to activate the machine yourself, by pressing Fax Start or
by pressing 5 1 if you are not at your machine. (

In case Fax Detect does not work, because of a poor phone line connection, just press Fax Start or
press the Activation Code 5 1. (You have to set Remote Activation to ON in Menu/Set, 2, 4 to
use 5 1.)
