In the unlikely event that your phone causes problems on the phone line, the phone com- pany can temporarily discontinue your ser- vice. If this happens, the phone company attempts to notify you in advance. If advance notice is not practical, the phone company 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, operations, or proce- dures 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 prevent interrup- tion 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 requirements. However, lightning striking the telephone or power lines can damage your telephone.

Lightning damage is not common. Neverthe- less, if you live in an area that has severe electrical storms, we suggest that you unplug your phone when storms approach to reduce the possibility of damage.

IMPORTANT CALLER ID INFORMATION

To use the system’s Caller ID and Call Wait- ing features, you must be in an area where those services are available and you must subscribe to those services through your lo- cal phone company.

Where Caller ID is offered, one or more op- tions are generally available:

• caller’s number only

caller’s name only

caller’s name and number
