If the terminal equipment causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone company will
notify you in advance that temporary discontinuance of the product may be required. But if
advance notice isn’t practical, the telephone company will notify you as soon as possible. You
will also be advised of your right to file a complaint with the FCC, if you believe it is
necessary.
If a network interface jack is not already installed in your location, you can order one from
your telephone company. Order the appropriate USOC Network interface jack, as specified in
the installation instructions, for wall-mounted telephones or for desk/table use. In some states,
customers are permitted to install their own jacks.
Your telephone may not be connected to a party line or coin telephone line. Connection to
Party Line Service is subject to state tariffs. (Contact the state public utility commission,
public service commission or corporation commission for information.)
It is no longer necessary to notify the Telephone Company of your phone’s Registration and
REN numbers. However, you must provide this information to the telephone company if they
request it. The telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment, operation or
procedures that could affect the operation of the equipment. If this happens the telephone
company will provide advance notice in order for you to make necessary modification to
maintain uninterrupted service.
Do not attempt to repair this equipment. If you experience trouble, write for warranty and
repair information:

Ringer Equivalence Number
The FCC Registration label (on bottom of phone), includes a Ringer Equivalence Number (REN),
which is used to determine the number of devices you may connect to your phone line. A high total
REN may prevent phones from ringing in response to an incoming call and may make placing calls
difficult. In most areas, a total REN of 5 should permit normal phone operation. To determine the
total REN allowed on your telephone line, consult your local telephone company.
Hearing Aids
This phone is compatible with hearing aids equipped with an appropriate telecoil option.
Programming Emergency Numbers
When programming emergency numbers and/or making test calls to emergency numbers:
1 Remain on the line and briefly explain to the dispatcher the reason for calling before hanging
up.
2 Perform such activities in the off-peak hours, such as early mornings or late evenings.
