Notes for operation in New Zealand
The grant of a Telepermit for any item of terminal equipment indicates
only that Telecom has accepted that the item complies with the minimum
conditions for connection to its network. It indicates no endorsement of
the product by Telecom, nor does it provide any sort of warranty. Above
all, it provides no assurance that any item will work correctly in all respects
with another item of Telepermitted equipment of a different make or
model, nor does it imply that any product is compatible with all of
Telecom’s network services. This device may be subject to ringing or
bell tinkle when certain other devices are connected to the same line. If
this occurs, the problem should not be referred to the Telecom Faults
service.
REN (RN for New Zealand)
The REN (Ringer Equivalence Number) or (RN) is of significance only if
you wish to connect more than 1 telephone to your telephone line. A
standard telephone line has a maximum REN capacity of 3 (RN of 5). It
is possible to connect 3(5) devices with a REN of 1 (RN of 1) with no
degradation to the product’s performance. Exceeding this limit may cause
the volume of the ringer in any phone to decrease or not ring at all.
Caller ID
Customers using non Telecom toll services should not use the dial back
feature for local calls as this will incur a charge only the 7 digit number
should be dialled. Some of the CID services listed may not be available
in New Zealand.
