If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception,  
which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is  
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following  
measures:  
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna (that is, the antenna for radio or  
television that is “receiving” the interference).  
• Reorient or relocate and increase the separation between the  
telecommunications equipment and receiving antenna.  
• Connect the telecommunications equipment into an outlet on a circuit different  
from that to which the receiving antenna is connected.  
If these measures do not eliminate the interference, please consult your dealer or an  
experienced radio/television technician for additional suggestions. Also, the Federal  
Communications Commission has prepared a helpful booklet, “How To Identify and  
Resolve Radio/TV Interference Problems.” This booklet is available from the U.S.  
Government Printing Office, Washington, D.C. 20402. Please specify stock number  
004-000-00345-4 when ordering copies.  
Notice: The changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party  
responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the  
equipment.

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.
