4. Rights of the telephone company
If this equipment is causing harm to the telephone network, the telephone com-
pany may temporarily discontinue your telephone service. The telephone com-
pany is required to notify you before interrupting service. If advance notice is not
practical, you will be notified as soon as possible. You will be given the opportu-
nity to correct the problem and the telephone company is required to inform you
of your right to file a complaint with the FCC. Your telephone company may make
changes in its facilities, equipment, operation, or procedures that could affect the
proper functioning of this product. The telephone company is required to notify
you if such changes are planned.
5. Hearing aid compatibility
If this product is equipped with a corded or cordless handset, it is hearing aid
compatible.
6. Programming/testing of emergency numbers
If this product has memory dialing locations, you may choose to store police, fire
department and emergency medical service telephone numbers in these loca-
tions. If you do, please keep three things in mind:
a. We recommend that you also write the telephone number on the directory
card (if applicable), so that you can still dial the emergency number manually if
the memory dialing feature doesn’t work.
b. This feature is provided only as a convenience, and the manufacturer assumes
no responsibility for customer reliance upon the memory feature.
c. Testing the emergency telephone numbers you have stored is not recommended.
However, if you do make a call to an emergency number:
• You must remain on the line and briefly explain the reason for the call before
hanging up.
• Programming/testing of emergency numbers should be performed during
off-peak hours, such as in the early morning or late evening, when the
emergency services tend to be less busy.
