For dedicated fax lines.
Fax/Tel
(fax and telephone)
(with an external or
extension telephone

answers every call. If the
call is a fax it will receive
the fax. If the call is not a

Use this mode if you expect to receive lots of fax
messages and few telephone calls. You cannot
have an answering machine on the same line, even
if it is on a separate wall socket/phone socket on
the same line. You cannot use the telephone
company’s Voice Mail in this mode.

work in this setting.
Manual

(with an external or
extension telephone
for models without a
handset or with BT Call

every call yourself.
