L To answer using the handset of the unit (if
connected) or another telephone (3) connected
to the same telephone line as this unit (4), lift the
handset and talk to the other party.
– See "1.1 Supplied accessories", page 8 and
"1.2 Accessory information", page 9 if your
unit includes a handset, or if an optional
handset is available.
L The number of rings is determined by the "Silent
fax recognition ring setting" (feature #436 on

L Callers will hear a ring back tone different from
the one generated by the telephone company.
B If you do not answer the call, the unit will activate
the fax function.

tones when sending faxes, therefore the unit will
try to receive a fax even if no fax calling tone is
detected.
