Telephone Company Procedures

The goal of the telephone company is to provide you with the best service it can. In order to do this, it may occasionally be necessary for it to make changes in its equipment, operation, or procedures. If these changes affect your service or the operation of the equipment, the telephone company will give you notice, in writing, to allow you to make any changes necessary to maintain uninterrupted service.

If you have any questions about your telephone line, such as how many pieces of equipment you can connect to it, the telephone company will provide this information upon request.

In certain circumstances, it may be necessary for the telephone company to request information from you concerning the equipment which you have connected to your telephone line. Upon request of the telephone company, provide the FCC registration number and the Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) of the equipment which is connected to your line; both of these items are listed on the equipment label and in the Service Information chapter of this guide. The sum of all of the RENs on your telephone line should be less than five in order to assure proper service from the telephone company. In some cases, a sum of five may not be usable on a given line.

Lightning

Your unit has built-in protection circuits, which meet or exceed FCC requirements, to reduce the risk of damage from surges in telephone line currents. However, lightning striking near or on these lines can cause an exessive surge of voltage that can damage the phone.

Lightning damage is uncommon. However, if you are concerned about it or live in an area with frequent and/or severe electrical storms, we suggest that you unplug your electronic equipment during the storms.
