Important information (for Australian users)!  
Instructions to customer  
Installation  
Attached to this apparatus is an approval label. This label is evidence that it is a “Permitted Attachment”  
which has been authorised to be connected to your telephone service.  
Conditions relating to connection and operation of this Permitted Attachment are contained in  
Telecommunications General By-Law 220 (5).  
You are authorised to install this Permitted Attachment yourself by plugging it into the line socket of any  
regular telephone. You may connect it in place of your existing telephone or to any spare telephone socket  
installed in your premises.  
To disconnect your existing telephone you must first remove its plug from the line socket. You can then  
insert the plug of your Permitted Attachment into the socket and use your equipment.  
I
f the plug of your existing telephone cannot be readily removed, you will have to remove the screw securing  
it. To do this proceed as follows:  
1. Loosen screw “A” sufficiently to remove the socket cover. (See Fig. 1.)  
2. Remove screw “B” and withdraw the plug. (See Fig. 2.)  
3. Replace screw “B”. (See Fig. 3.) Ensure that it screws completely into the socket recess. (If the screw is  
too long, increase the hole depth or replace the screw with one 5 mm shorter.)  
4. Replace socket cover and tighten screw “A”. (See Fig. 4.)

If you are satisfied with the operation of your telephone service after plugging in your Permitted Attachment,  
your installation is completed.  
You will be unable to connect this Permitted Attachment if your telephone service consists only of a wall  
phone or an old style telephone which is not connected by means of a modern plug and socket. In such  
cases a new socket will need to be installed.  
Should the Permitted Attachment not operate when plugged into a socket, it is either faulty or unsuitable for  
operation with your telephone service. It should be returned to the store where purchased.  
Service difficulties  
If at any time a fault occurs on your telephone service carry out the following checks before you call for  
service:  
Disconnect the Permitted Attachment and try using the service with the normal telephone.  
If the telephone service then operates satisfactorily, the fault is in your Permitted Attachment. Leave the  
Permitted Attachment disconnected and report the fault to its supplier or agent to arrange for repair.  
If when using the telephone the service is still faulty, report the fault to “Service Difficulties and Faults” for  
attention.  
You are required to keep this Permitted Attachment in good working order while it is connected to your  
telephone service. Its construction or internal circuit must not be modified in any way without permission.

Caller ID  
Caller ID service from your phone company!  
This unit is compatible with the Caller ID service offered by your local telephone  
company. To use this feature, you must subscribe to the Caller ID service.  
How Caller ID is displayed  
The calling party’s telephone number or name will be displayed after the first ring. You then have  
the option of whether or not to answer the call depending on the caller.  
The unit will automatically store the caller information (telephone number, name and the time of  
the call). You can view the caller information (p. 29) and print the caller ID list (p. 77).  
Note:  
If the unit is connected to a PBX (Private Branch Exchange) system, you may not receive the caller  
information. Consult your PBX supplier.  
If the unit cannot receive caller information, the following will be displayed.  
OUT OF AREA  
The caller dialled from an area which does not provide Caller ID service.  
PRIVATE CALLER  
The caller requested not to send caller information.  
Note for Australian users:  
The KX-FLB751AL will not display the name from the Directory. Telstra and Optus do not currently  
transmit names with the Caller ID.  
Note for New Zealand users:  
Telecom New Zealand does not currently send a NAME for Caller ID.  
Your telephone service provider may charge you for a local call when it is dialled with an area code prefix.  
If the charge for local call is unacceptable, only the 7-digits of the local number should be dialled from  
your telephone. Do not dial the ‘‘0’’ prefix or the area code digit.  
To confirm caller information using the Caller ID list  
The unit will store information for the most recent 30 callers.  
To print manually, see page 77.  
To print automatically after every 30 new calls, activate feature #26 (p. 61).

— Do not place the drum unit near dust or dirt, or in a high humidity area.  
— Do not expose the drum unit to direct sunlight.  
Do not unplug the fax machine to prevent loss of fax documents in memory.

Note:  
Do not use the following types of paper:  
Paper with a cotton and/or fibre content that is over 20%, such as letterhead paper or paper used  
for resumes  
Extremely smooth or shiny paper, or paper that is highly textured  
Coated, damaged or wrinkled paper  
Paper with irregularities, such as tabs or staples  
Paper which has dust, lint or oil stains  
Paper that will melt, vaporize, discolour, scorch or emit dangerous fumes, near 200 °C, such as  
vellum paper. These materials may transfer onto the fusing roller and cause damage.  
Moist paper  
Inkjet paper  
Some paper only accepts print on one side. Try using the other side of the paper if you are not happy  
with the print quality or if misfeeding occurs.  
For proper feeding and best print quality, we recommend using long-grained paper.  
Do not use paper of different types or thickness at the same time. This may cause a paper jam.  
Avoid double-sided printing.  
Do not use paper printed from this unit for double-sided printing with other copiers or printers. This may  
cause a paper jam.  
To avoid curling, do not open paper packs until you are ready to use the paper. Store unused paper in  
the original packaging, in a cool and dry location.  
Toner life  
Toner life depends on the amount of content in a received, copied or printed document. The following is  
the approximate relationship between image area and toner life for Model No. KX-FA76A toner cartridge.  
Toner life varies in actual usage.  
5% image area  
10% image area  
15% image area  
Approx. 2,000 sheets of A4  
size paper can be printed.  
Approx. 1,000 sheets of A4  
size paper can be printed.  
Approx. 650 sheets of A4  
size paper can be printed.  
Note:  
The image area changes with the depth, thickness and size of the characters.  
If you change the toner save setting to on, the toner cartridge will last approx. 40% longer.  
Drum life  
The included drum unit or Model No. KX-FA78A can print approx. 6,000 sheets of A4 size paper  
regardless of the content of the image area.
