PROBLEMS AND SOLUTIONS

Make sure the power cord is properly plugged into a power
outlet.
Make sure the power switch has been switched to the "ON"
position.
Connect another electrical appliance to the outlet to confirm
that it has power.
If a beep sound is not made when you press the keys, turn
off the power and then turn it back on several seconds later.
Check the size and weight of the document (see
"Transmittable documents" in Chapter 3).
Make sure the power is on.
Make sure that the telephone line is properly connected to
both the TEL. LINE socket and the wall socket.
Make sure that the fax is set to the correct dialling mode for
your telephone line. See Option Setting 21 in Chapter 5.
Make sure that the document for transmission is placed face
down in the feeder.
Make sure that the printing paper is properly loaded in the
receiving machine.
Make sure that the receiving machine has printing paper.
If the receiving machine is in manual mode with no
attendant, reception will not be possible.
If the receiving machine is not a Sharp model, make sure it is
G3 compatible.
Check the display for error messages.
Call the receiving machine by normal (manual) dialling, and
confirm its response.
Noise on the telephone line may cause distortion. Try
sending the document again.
Make a copy of the document on your fax. If the copy is also
distorted, your fax may have a problem. If the problem
persists, call for service.
