NFORMATION
Should your equipment cause trouble on your line which
may harm the telephone network, the telephone company,
where practicable, may notify you that temporary
discontinuance of service may be required. Where prior
notice is not practicable and the circumstances warrant
such action, the telephone company may temporarily
discontinue service immediately.
The telephone company may make changes in its
communications facilities, equipment, operations or
procedures where such action is required in the operation
of its business. If these changes are expected to affect the
use or performance of your telephone equipment, the
telephone company will likely give you adequate notice to
allow you to maintain uninterrupted service.
Notice must be given to the telephone company upon
termination of your telephone from your line.
REN N
UMBER
On the bottom of this equipment is a label indicating,
among other information, the FCC Registration number
and Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) for the equipment.
You must, upon request, provide this information to your
telephone company.
The REN is useful in determining the number of devices
you may connect to your telephone line and still have all
of these devices ring when your telephone number is
called. In most (but not all) areas, the sum of the RENs of
all devices connected to one line should not exceed 5. 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.
