Remote Retrieval
Using Your Remote Access Code
To receive faxes at your location, you must call from a fax machine using touch tone. For
convenience, you can retrieve faxes from a touch tone phone by having them sent to a fax machine.
For example, if your hotel room does not have a fax machine, you can enter the number of the fax
machine at the hotel’s Front Desk.
1
Dial your fax number from a touch tone phone.
2
When the machine answers and beeps, immediately enter your Remote Access Code
(the factory setting is 1 5 9 ).
3
The machine signals the kinds of messages received:
1 long beep — Fax message(s)
No long beep — No messages
4
The machine prompts you with two short beeps to enter a command. If you wait longer than 30
seconds to enter a command, the machine hangs up. If you enter an invalid command, the
machine beeps three times.
5
Press 9 0 to reset the machine when you finish.
6
Hang up.
You can also dial into the machine from a remote location to switch this feature on,
or to change the number you want your faxes forwarding to.

If your fax machine is set to Manual Mode, you can access your machine remotely
by phoning it and letting it ring for about 100 seconds. Your fax machine will
answer the phone after about 100 seconds of ringing, and you then have 30
seconds to enter your Remote Access Code.
