discontinue your service if your
equipment causes harm to the
telephone network. They will notify you
in advanceof disconnection, if possible.
During notification, you will be informed
of your right to file a complaint with the
FCC.
Occasionally, your telephone company
may make changes in its facilities,
equipment, operation, or procedures
that could affect the operation of your
equipment. If so, you will be given
advance notice of the change to give
you an opportunity to maintain
uninterrupted

serviceable parts. The handset
contains a user replaceable battery
pack.
If it is determined that your telephone
equipment is malfunctioning, the FCC
requires that it not be used and that it be
unplugged from the modular jack until
the problem has been corrected.

5.OA total; however,
