For Fax/Tel mode only 7
When the machine is in Fax/Tel mode, it will
use the F/T Ring Time (pseudo/double-
ringing) to alert you to pick up a voice call.
Lift the external telephone’s handset, and
then press Hook to answer.
If you are at an extension telephone, you will
need to lift the handset during the F/T Ring
Time and then press #51 between the
pseudo/double rings. If no one is on the line,
or if someone wants to send you a fax, send
the call back to the machine by pressing l51.
Connecting an external or
extension telephone 7
You can connect a separate telephone
directly to your machine as shown in the
diagram below.
Before you connect the external telephone,
remove the protective cap (3) from the
EXT.jack on the machine.
1 Extension telephone
2 External telephone
3 Protective Cap
When you are using an external telephone,
the LCD shows Telephone.
Using a non-Brother cordless
external handset 7
If your non-Brother cordless telephone is
connected to the telephone line cord (see
page 48) and you typically carry the cordless
handset elsewhere, it is easier to answer
calls during the Ring Delay.
If you let the machine answer first, you will
have to go to the machine so you can press
Hook to transfer the call to the cordless
handset.
