USING AN ANSWERING MACHINE

When your answering machine is connected to the machine and receiving a voice message, you can record the
message after the answering machine rings. When coming a fax, the machine will automatically receive it after the
answering machine rings. To enable this function, select the A.M. mode of the Reception Mode (see "SELECTING
THE RECEPTION MODE" on page 26).
