Before installing this equipment, users should ensure that it is permissible to be connected to the facilities of the local Telecommunications
Company. This equipment must also be installed using an acceptable method of connection. In some cases, the company’s inside wiring
associated with a single line individual service may be extended by means of a certified connector assembly (telephone extension cord). The

Any equipment repairs made by the user, or equipment malfunctions, may give the Telecommunications Company cause to request the user to
disconnect the equipment.
Users should ensure, for their own protection, that the electrical ground connections of the power utility, telephone lines and internal metallic
water pipe system, if present, are connected together. This precaution may be particularly important in rural areas.
Caution: Users should not attempt to make such connections themselves, but should contact the appropriate electric inspection authority, or
electrician, as appropriate.
