When you are using a telephone on the same
phone line, the LCD shows Telephone.

Operation from extension
telephones 7
If you answer a fax call on an extension or an
external telephone plugged into the correct
socket on the machine, you can make your
machine take the call by using the Remote
Activation Code. When you press the Remote
Activation Code l 51, the machine starts to
receive the fax.
If the machine answers a voice call and fast
double-rings for you to take over, use the
Remote Deactivation Code #51 to take the
call at an extension telephone. (See F/T Ring
Time (Fax/Tel mode only) on page 36.)

the line:

You should assume that you're receiving a
manual fax.
Press l 51 and wait for the chirp or until the
LCD shows Receiving, and then hang up.
Note
You can also use the Fax Detect feature to
make your machine automatically take the
call. (See Fax Detect on page 37.)
Using a cordless external
telephone 7
Once the base unit of the cordless telephone
has been connected to the same telephone
line as the machine (see External and
extension telephones on page 41), it is easier
to answer calls during the Ring Delay if you
carry the cordless handset around with you.
If you let the machine answer first, you will
have to go to the machine so you can press
Tel/R to send the call to the cordless handset.
