Table 1: Main properties of the emission lines detected in the optical spectrum of Swift J1656.3-3302. Line fluxes are reported with and without correction for the intervening Galactic extinction (see text). Equivalent Widths (EWs) are expressed in the observer's frame. Uncertainties are at 1-$\sigma $ confidence level.
