Remote Activation Code

If you answer a fax call on an extension or external telephone, you can tell your machine to receive it by pressing

the Remote Activation Code *51 (*91 for New Zealand). Wait for the chirping sounds then replace the handset.

If you answer a fax call at the external telephone, you can make the machine receive the fax by pressing the

Start button and then selecting the option to receive.

Remote Deactivation Code

If you receive a voice call and the machine is in F/T mode, it will start to sound the F/T ring (pseudo/double-ring)

after the initial Ring Delay. If you pick up the call on an extension telephone you can turn the F/T ring off by

pressing #51 (#91 for New Zealand) (make sure you press this between the rings).

If the machine answers a voice call and pseudo/double-rings for you to take over, you can take the call at the

external telephone by pressing [Pickup].
