GE 2-9991 Answering Machine User Manual


 
2
Your GE telephone equipment is registered with the
Federal Communications Commission and is in
compliance with parts 15 and 68, FCC Rules and
Regulations.
1 Notification to the Local Telephone Company
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.
Notes
This equipment may not be used on coin service
provided by the telephone company.
Party lines are subject to state tariffs, and
therefore, you may not be able to use your own
telephone equipment if you are on a party line.
Check with your local telephone company.
Notice must be given to the telephone company
upon permanent disconnection of your telephone
from your line.
2 Rights of the Telephone Company
Should your equipment cause trouble on your line
which may harm the telephone network, the
telephone company shall, where practicable, 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. In case of such temporary discontinu-
ance, the telephone company must: (1) promptly
notify you of such temporary discontinuance; (2)
afford you the opportunity to correct the situation;
and (3) inform you of your right to bring a complaint
to the Commission pursuant to procedures set forth
in Subpart E of Part 68, FCC Rules and Regulations.
The telephone company may make changes in its
communications facilities, equipment, operations of
procedures where such action is required in the
operation of its business and not inconsistent with
FCC Rules and Regulations. If these changes are
expected to affect the use or performance of your
telephone equipment, the telephone company must
give you adequate notice, in writing, to allow you to
maintain uninterrupted service.
