Manual mode turns off all automatic answering functions unless you are using the Distinctive Ring Receive feature.
To receive a fax in Manual mode lift the handset of the external telephone or press Hook. When you hear fax tones (short repeating beeps), press Black Start or Color Start and then press 2 to receive a fax. You can also use the Easy Receive feature to receive faxes by lifting a handset on the same line as the machine.
