When you dial an AUTO DIAL number the LCD shows the name you’ve stored,

there is a strong possibility that Voice Mail and the fax machine will conflict with each 
other while receiving incoming calls. However, this Distinctive Ring feature allows 
the use of more than one number on your line, so both Voice Mail and the fax 
machine can coexist peacefully. If each one has a separate phone number, neither
