Turning Fax Detect On (default setting) allows the machine to receive fax calls automatically if you lift any handset on the same line as the machine.
When you see Receiving on the LCD or when you hear ‘chirps’ through the handset you are using, just replace the handset and your machine will receive the fax.
If this feature is set to
On, but your machine does not connect a fax call when you lift the handset of an extension or external telephone, press
51 on the external or extension phone. (See
Operation from extension telephones.)
