Manual

Manual mode turns off all automatic answering functions unless you are using the BT Call Sign feature.
To receive a fax in manual mode lift the handset of an external telephone. When you hear fax tones (short repeating beeps), press Mono Start or Colour Start and choose Receive. You can also use the Fax Detect feature to receive faxes by lifting a handset on the same line as the machine.
