Setting the Reception Mode
Your fax has three modes for receiving incoming calls and faxes:
TEL mode:
Select this mode when you want to receive both phone calls and faxes
on the line connected to the fax machine. All calls, including faxes,
must be answered by picking up the fax machine's handset or an
extension phone connected to the same line.
FAX mode:
Select this mode when you only want to receive faxes on your line.
The fax machine will automatically answer all calls on four rings and
receive incoming faxes.
A.M. mode:
Use this mode only if you have connected an answering machine to
the fax (see Chapter 7). Select this mode when you go out to receive
voice messages in your answering machine and faxes on your fax
machine.
