BASIC FAX USE Manual and Automatic Fax Redial If you're sending a fax manually (with external telephone) and the line is busy, press Redial/Pause and Fax Start to try again. Anytime you want to make a second call to the last number dialled, press Redial/Pause and Fax Start to save time. If you're sending a fax automatically and the line is busy, the machine will automatically redial up to 4 times at 2 minute intervals. Pause Press Redial/Pause to insert a pause between digits to be dialled.
