When the machine is in Fax/Tel mode, it will use the F/T Ring (fast double-ring) to alert you to pick up a voice call.

If you are at an external telephone, lift the handset of the external telephone, and then press Tel/R to answer.

If you are at an extension telephone, you'll need to lift the handset during the F/T Ring Time and then press # 5 1 between the fast double-rings. If no one is on the line, or if someone wants to send you a fax, send the call back to the machine by pressing 5 1.
