Very Important If you have Voice Mail, or a TAD (Telephone Answering Device) and want to keep one of your phone numbers dedicated only to fax calls, you must leave the machine in MANUAL mode at all times while using the Distinctive Ring Feature. Here's why: Manual mode will never pick up a call by itself, since it is «Neutral». When the machine is in this «neutral» mode, the Distinctive Ring Feature can be activated. The distinctive ring feature is actually an answering mode. So, do not activate FAX mode or FAX/TEL mode while using distinctive ring; otherwise, the fax machine will answer calls for all the numbers. Registering the Distinctive Ring Pattern 1 Set the machine to MANUAL mode. 2 Press Menu, 2, 0, 1. 3 Press or to select DISTINCTIVE:SET and then press Set. 4 Press or to select the prestored ring pattern you want to assign, and then press Set. (You will hear each pattern as you scoll through the four patterns.) Be sure to choose the pattern assigned by the Telephone Company. 5 Press Stop/Exit. Caller ID The Caller ID feature of this machine lets you use the Caller ID subscriber service offered by many local phone companies. This service provides the name or telephone number of your caller on the LCD as the line rings. After a few rings, the LCD shows the telephone number of your caller (or name, if available). Once you pick up the handset, the Caller ID information disappears from the screen, but the call information remains stored in the Caller ID memory. I You will see the first 16 characters of the number or name. I OUT OF AREA display means call originates outside your Caller ID service area. I PRIVATE CALL display means the caller has intentionally blocked transmission of information. I CALL PICKUP display remains on the screen when no Caller ID information was transmitted. If both the name and number are received, the LCD shows only the name. You can print a list of Caller ID information received by your machine. Caller ID service varies with different carriers. Call your local phone company to determine the kind of service available in your area. TELEPHONE SERVICES 8-3
