    About the Receive Mode

    Answer mode

    Receives a fax automatically.
    The answering machine records a message for telephone calls.




    *1 Set your answering machine to answer after a few rings.
    *2 Record a message on your answering machine. (It is recommend that you insert about 4 seconds of silence at the beginning of the message or limit the message within 20 seconds.)

    Manual mode

    Because this machine rings when receiving both fax and telephone calls, pick up the handset to respond the call manually.
    This mode is a suitable option if you expect to use the machine mainly as a telephone, and only occasionally receive fax documents.




    *1 If "Manual/Auto Switch" is set to <On>, the machine switches to the fax receive operation automatically when the machine rings for a certain time.
    *2 When "Remote Receiving" is set, you can also receive fax documents by dialing from your telephone.
