Manual Reception

When a telephone call comes in, the machine rings. If the call is a fax document, you must switch
manually to facsimile mode.
1. When the machine rings, pick up the handset of the external telephone.
2. If you hear beeps, press the [Start] key, or hold the [Facsimile] key down for a few
seconds. (The [Start] key is only available in facsimile mode when an original is not
placed.)
3. If you pressed the [Start] key in step 2, press [Start RX].
4. Replace the handset of the external telephone. The machine will start receiving.
• When the operation switch is off, even if the main power switch is on, you cannot operate this
machine using only the handset of the external telephone. You must first press the operation switch
to turn on the machine.
Auto Reception
When a telephone call comes in, the machine automatically receives it as a fax document.
Use this setting on a dedicated fax line.
