Fax Detect (with an External Telephone)

When you use this feature, you don't have to press Start when you
answer a fax call and hear calling beeps. Just hold the handset and wait
for several seconds. When you see RECEIVING on the fax screen or
when you hear "chirps" through the handset of an extension phone
connected to another wall socket, just replace the handset, and your
machine does the rest. Selecting ON allows the machine to receive fax
calls automatically, even if you lift the handset of an extension or
external phone. Selecting OFF means you'll have to activate the
machine yourself, by pressing
1
Press Menu, 1, 2, 3.
