98 C H A P T E R T E N Using the Remote Access Code To listen to your voice messages, you can call from any touch tone phone. To receive faxes at your location, you must call from a fax machine using touch tone. For convenience, you can retrieve faxes from a touch tone phone by having them sent to a fax machine. For example, if your hotel room does not have a fax machine, you can enter the number of the fax machine at the hotel's Front Desk. 1 Dial your machine's phone number from a touch tone phone. 2 When your machine answers and beeps, immediately enter your Remote Access Code. 3 The machine signals the kinds of messages received: 1 long beep-Fax message(s) 2 long beeps-Voice message(s) 3 long beeps-Fax and Voice message(s) No beeps-No messages 4 The machine then prompts you with two short beeps to enter a command. If you wait longer than 30 seconds to enter a command, the machine hangs up. If you enter an invalid command, the machine beeps three times. 5 Press 9 0 to exit remote access mode when you have finished. 6 Hang up.
