If the document does not feed straight when inserting it onto the DOCUMENT holder:
Pull the document out towards you.
To transmit continuously:
After the last document is transmitted, three delayed beeps will be heard slowly.
When the beeps start, insert the new document (up to 5 sheets) into the DOCUMENT holder.
•When you insert the new document, the beeps will stop immediately.
If a document is Jammed during transmission:
Open the cover by pushing the LATCH button. Then remove the jammed document by pulling up.
If you should experience difficulty transmitting/receiving a document (an international fax mainly) because of poor
telephone line conditions, refer to page 29 for information on setting the selectors at the bottom of your unit.
If you are using a call waiting service, and a call is received at the same time that a document is being transmitted, the

Helpful Hints-
•When transmitting a document to another KX-F115, at step 3 on page 23, push the button after
hearing the start of the OGM.
•If the letters and/or drawing in an original document are small or Intricate, change the RESOLUTION
selector to "FINE” to increase the scanning line density.
When you transmit the FAX CORRESPONDENCE sheet, we recommend that you set the RESOLUTION
selector to "FINE” that the other party may receive a clear copy.
•The document feeder can handle five sheets of the specified paper. See page 22.
The top sheet of the document will be transmitted first.
•The unit will return to the standby mode, five seconds after transmission is completed.
•If the condition of the telephone line is poor (noisy) or the recording paper of the receiving unit is out, the ALARM
indicator will light and a beep will be heard. During these conditions, transmission is not possible.

J
If someone is unable to transmit a document to you after several tries, we recommend the following:
1. Remove the portion of your OGM which says “To send a FAX, push theSbutton”, and ask them to
try again.
2. Set the FAX-ATAS selector to “FAX”.
Tear off the recorded document as shown in the right figure.
The unit may not receive a transmitted document if the transmitting conditions
(telephone or telephone line etc.) are poor.
To receive a document manually:
Even if the Automatic Answer mode is canceled, the unit can still receive a document.
To receive a document after speaking to a caller, push the FAX button; then hang up the handset.
The unit will receive the transmission.
If a caller hangs up during or immediately after hearing the OGM, the FAX indicator may flash for about 40 seconds but
nothing is recorded. This may occur due to differences in Central Office lines and is a normal condition.
If you are using a call waiting sen/ice, and a call is received at the same time that a document is being received, the
document may include distorted characters, or reception errors may occur.
If a telephone connected in parallel with your unit is used during receipt of a document, the received document may
include distorted characters.
When the KX-F115 is used in the facsimile mode for long periods of time, it may overheat and stop operating. Do not
turn the power off at this time. Operation will automatically resume as soon as the unit has cooled.
