Users should ensure that the electrical ground connections of the power utility,
telephone lines and internal metallic water pipe system, if present, are connected
together for protection. This precaution may be particularly important in rural areas.
CAUTION:
Users should not attempt to make such connections themselves, but should
contact the appropriate electric inspection authority, or an electrician, as
appropriate.
The load number (LN) is labeled on the equipment. The LN denotes the percentage of
the total load to be connected to a telephone loop used by this equipment. To prevent
an overload, the total of the LNs of all devices attached to the loop may not exceed 100.
The LN also specifies the appropriate ringing type (A or B), if applicable. For example,
LN = 20A designates a load number of 20 and an A type ringer.
If you experience trouble with this equipment, please contact your sales or service
representative (as appropriate) for repair or warranty information. If the trouble is
causing harm to the telephone network, the telephone company may request that you
remove the equipment from the network until the problem is resolved.
