coin service provided by the telephone  
company.  
Your telephone equipment is approved  
for connection to the Public Switched  
Telephone Network and is in compliance  
with parts 15 and 68, FCC Rules and  
Regulations and the Technical  
Party lines are subject to state tariffs,  
and therefore, you may not be able to  
use your own telephone equipment if  
you are on a party line. Check with  
your local telephone company.  
Notice must be given to the telephone  
company upon permanent

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  
telephone line, ensure the installation  
of this product does not disable your  
alarm equipment. If you have questions  
about what will disable alarm  
equipment, consult your telephone  
company or a qualified installer.
