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.
A plug and jack used to connect this equipment to the premises wiring and telephone network
must comply with the applicable FCC Part 68 rules and requirements adopted by the ACTA. A
compliant telephone cord and modular plug is provided with this product. It is designed to be
connected to a compatible modular jack that is also compliant. See installation instructions for
details.

If this equipment is malfunctioning, it should be unplugged from the modular jack until the
problem is corrected. Repairs to this equipment can only be made by the manufacturer or
its authorized agents. For information on repair procedures, follow the instructions provided
with the limited warranty. Should your equipment cause trouble on your line which may
harm the telephone network, the telephone company shall, where practicable, notify you that
temporary discontinuance of service may be required. Where prior notice is not practical and
the circumstances warrant such action, the telephone company may temporarily discontinue
service immediately. In case of such temporary discontinuance, the telephone company must: (1)
