UMBER
On the bottom of this equipment is a label indicating, among other infor-
mation, the FCC Registration number and Ringer Equivalence Number
(REN) for the equipment. You must, upon request, provide this information
to your telephone company.
The REN is useful in determining the number of devices you may connect
to your telephone line and still have all of these devices ring when your
telephone number is called. In most (but not all) areas, the sum of the RENs
of all devices connected to one line should not exceed 5. To be certain of
the number of devices you may connect to your line as determined by the
REN, you should contact your local telephone company.

NFORMATION
Should your equipment cause trouble on your line which may harm the
telephone network, the telephone company, where practicable, may notify
you that temporary discontinuance of service may be required. Where prior
notice is not practicable and the circumstances warrant such action, the
telephone company may temporarily discontinue service immediately.
The telephone company may make changes in its communications facili-
ties, equipment, operations or procedures where such action is required in
the operation of its business. If these changes are expected to affect the
use or performance of your telephone equipment, the telephone company
will likely give you adequate notice to allow you to maintain uninterrupted
service.
Notice must be given to the telephone company upon termination of your
telephone from your line.
