Making a Call

You can use your machine to make voice telephone calls, by dialling manually or by using One
Touch or Speed Dial memory. You can use the handset or if you have the FAX-T76 you can use the
Speakerphone to make and receive calls. For more details, see "Dialling a Number" on page 22 and
22.
The "full-duplex" digital Speakerphone allows you to operate the phone hands free, or allows more
than one person in the room to participate in a two-way phone conversation. When using the
Speakerphone, make sure that you speak clearly. If the other party has difficulty hearing you, move
closer to the microphone.
