CONNECTING THE TELEPHONE LINE CORD
Plug one end of the telephone line cord into
the jack on the machine marked "LINE."
Plug the other side into a standard (RJ11C)
single-line telephone wall jack. Be sure not
to plug this telephone line cord into the
"TEL" jack. The "TEL" jack is used to attach
an extension telephone or answering
machine to the machine. (See
"CONNECTING OTHER DEVICES")
If your area experiences a high incidence of lightning or
power surges, we recommend that you install surge
Note
protectors for the power and telephone lines. Surge
protectors can be purchased from your retailer or at
most telephone specialty stores.

FINAL PREPARATIONS

CONNECTING OTHER DEVICES
If desired, an answering machine or external telephone can be connected
to the machine through the telephone jack, labeled "TEL," on the rear of
the machine.
• Connecting an answering machine to the machine allows you to receive
both voice and fax messages when you are out. To use this feature, first
change the outgoing message of your answering machine, and then set
the reception mode of the machine to "A.M." (Answering Machine mode)
when you go out.
If you are using distinctive ringing with an answering
Note
machine, you do not need to follow the procedure
described below. (Please note that when distinctive
ringing is used, the answering machine must be
distinctive ring compatible.)
Comments:
1.It is advisable to keep the length of the message under 10 seconds. If it
is too long, you may have difficulty receiving faxes sent by automatic
dialing.
2.Your callers can even leave a voice message and send a fax message
on the same call. Modify your outgoing message to explain that this can
be done by pressing their [START] key (
message.
• You can connect an extension phone to the machine to make and
receive calls like any other extension phone on your line. Even if you
pick up the extension phone and hear a fax tone, the machine will
automatically cut in and take over the line. Note, however, if you also
have a PC modem on the same line, you must turn on the Remote
Reception function, and deactivate the Fax Signal Receive function. See
"SETTING UP THE MACHINE FOR USE WITH A PC MODEM" (p.37)
and "USING THE REMOTE RECEPTION FUNCTION" (p.38).
Note
The Remote Reception function is initially set to "ON".
