Important information

If required by the telephone company, inform them of the following. FCC Registration No.: (found on the rear side of
the unit) Ringer Equivalence: 0.5B The particular telephone line to which the equipment is connected.
This unit must not be connected to a coin operated line. If you are on a party line, check with your local telephone company.
Ringer Equivalence Number (REN):
This REN is useful in determining the quantity of devices you may connect to your telephone line and still have all of those devices ring when your telephone number is called. In most but not all areas, the sum of the REN’s of all devices connected to one line should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain of the number of devices you may connect to your line, as determined by the REN, you should contact your local telephone company to determine the maximum REN for your calling area.
In the event that terminal equipment causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone company should notify the customer, if possible, that service
may be stopped. However, where prior notice is impractical, the company may temporarily cease service providing that they: a) Promptly notify the customer. b) Give the customer an opportunity to correct the
problem with their equipment.
c) Inform the customer of the right to bring a
complaint to the Federal Communication Commission pursuant to procedures set out in FCC Rules and Regulations Subpart E of Part 68.
The Telephone Company may make changes in its communications facilities, equipment operations, or procedures where such action is reasonably required in the operation of its business and is not inconsistent with the rules and regulations in FCC Part 68. If such changes can be reasonably expected to render any customer terminal equipment incompatible with telephone company communications facilities, or require modification or alteration of such terminal equipment, or otherwise materially affect its use or performance, the customer shall be given adequate notice in writing, to allow the customer an opportunity to maintain uninterrupted service.

CAUTION:

To assure continued compliance with FCC rules,
do not make any unauthorized modifications.
When programming emergency numbers and/or making test calls to emergency numbers:
1. Remain on the line and briefly explain to the dispatcher the reason for the call before hanging up.
2. Perform such activities in the off-peak hours; such as early morning or late evenings.
This telephone provides magnetic coupling to hearing aids.

Note:

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential
installation. This equipment generates, uses, and
can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to
radio communications. However, there is no
guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation. If this equipment does cause
harmful interference to radio or television
reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
—Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. —Increase the separation between the equipment
and receiver.
—Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit
different from that to which the receiver is connected.
—Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV
technician for help.

CAUTION

The telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991
makes it unlawful for any person to use a computer or other electronic device to send any message via a telephone facsimile machine unless such a
message clearly contains in a margin on the top or bottom of at least the first sent page the following
information:
1) Date and time of transmission; and,
2) Identification of either business, business entity
or individual sending the message; and,
3) Telephone number of either the sending
machine, business, business entity or individual.
In order to program this information into your facsimile machine, you must complete the steps on pages 1-18 to 1-22 in these Operating Instructions.

NOTES:
•The unit will not function during a power failure or when the power is turned off.
•Connection to integrated answering machines is not recommended.
•This unit is equipped with a 3-wire grounded type plug for safety. If you are unable to insert the plug into your outlet, contact your electrician to replace your outlet.
•We recommend the use of an exclusive AC outlet to avoid interference from other equipment.
• Place the equipment close to the socket outlet so the socket is easily accessible.
• If your unit is connected to the same line as other extensions, do not use other extensions during fax transmission and reception. Image quality will be affected.
• For additional equipment protection we recommend the use of a surge protector such as TELESPIKE BLOK MODEL TSB (TRIPPE MFG. CO.), SPIKE BLOK MODEL SK6-0 (TRIPPE MFC. CO.), SUPER MAX (PANAMAX) or MP1 (ITW LINX).
1-9

Installing the receiving tray and the diverter

To install the receiving tray:
Insert two fins of the tray into holders on the rear
side of the unit.
To install the diverter:
The diverter will hold the received documents straight and flat.
Insert two hooks of the diverter into holders on the rear side of the unit.
Make sure that the diverter is placed in proper direction.

the tape reel.
Push the microcassette tape down. Then close the cassette compartment cover.
Lift the microcassette tape as shown, then take it off.
NOTES:
•For optimum sound quality and performance, use the opposite side (side B) after six months and replace the tape with a new one every year, assuming that the unit answers about ten calls a day.
• Never place a cassette tape near a magnetic source such as a magnet or a TV set. It may erase or interfere with any messages on the tape.
•Should the cassette tape break or become worn, replace it with a new one. We recommend using the Panasonic cassette tape MC-30 or MC-60.

1-15

Recording Your Greeting Message

Record a greeting message before using your machine as an answering machine and facsimile.
The greeting message tells the caller that you are unable to answer, and allows him or her to leave a voice*message or to send a fax message.
You can store a greeting message up to 16 seconds.

Suggested message

Record your greeting message referring to the examples below.
—When the incoming message recording time is unlimited:
“This is (your name, business and/or telephone number). We are unable to answer right now. To send a fax, start transmission. To leave a message, speak after the long beep. Thank you."
—When the incoming message recording time is limited to 1 minute:
“This is (your name, business and/or telephone number). We are unable to answer right now. To send a fax, start transmission. To leave a message, speak for up to 1 minute after the long
beep. Thank you.“
You can choose from two lengths of recording times for incoming messages. When the unit is in the “VOX” position, the recording time is unlimited, and when in the “1 MIN” position, the
