THE FCC WANTS YOU
TO KNOW
In the unlikely event that your phone
causes problems on the phone line,
the phone company can temporarily
discontinue your service. If this hap-
pens, the phone company attempts to
notify you in advance. If advance no-
tice is not practical, the phone com-
pany notifies you as soon as possible
and advises you of your right to file a
complaint with the FCC.
Also, the phone company can make
changes to its lines, equipment, oper-
ations, or procedures that could affect
the operation of this telephone. The
telephone company notifies you of
these changes in advance, so you
can take the necessary steps to pre-
vent interruption of your telephone
service.
LIGHTNING
Your telephone has built-in protection
circuits to reduce the risk of damage
from surges in telephone line and
power line current. These protection
circuits meet or exceed the FCC re-
quirements. However, lightning strik-
ing the telephone or power lines can
damage your telephone.
Lightning damage is not common.
Nevertheless, if you live in an area
that has severe electrical storms, we
suggest that you unplug your phone
during storms to reduce the possibility
of damage.
