THE FCC WANTS YOU TO KNOW
In the unlikely event that your phone causes problems on the phone line, the phone company can temporarily discon- tinue your service. The phone company normally attempts to notify you in ad- vance. 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, opera- tions, or procedures that could affect the operation of this telephone. The phone company normally notifies you of these changes in advance, so you can take the necessary steps to prevent interruption of your phone service.
Your phone might cause TV or radio in- terference even when it is operating properly. To determine whether your phone is causing the interference, turn off and unplug your phone and discon- nect the handset battery. If the interfer- ence goes away, your phone is causing the interference.

Try to eliminate the interference by:
•Moving your phone away from the receiver
•Connecting your phone to an AC outlet that is on a different electrical circuit from the receiver
•Contacting your local Radio Shack store for help
If you cannot eliminate the interference, the FCC requires that you stop using your phone.

Your
Lightning damage is not common. Nev- ertheless, if you live in an area that has severe electrical storms, we suggest that you unplug your phone during storms to reduce the possibility of dam- age.
