19 Care and Maintenance
Also, the telephone company can make changes to its lines,
equipment, operations, or procedures that could affect the oper-
ation of this system. The telephone company notifies you of
these changes in advance so you can take the necessary steps
to prevent interruption of your telephone service.
LIGHTNING
Your system 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 require-
ments. However, lightning striking the telephone or power lines
can damage your system.
Lightning damage is not common. Nevertheless, if you live in an
area that has severe electrical storms, we suggest that you un-
plug your system during storms to reduce the possibility of dam-
age.
