LIGHTNING

Your telephone has built-in lightning pro-
tection to reduce the risk of damage from
surges in telephone line and power line
current. This lightning protection meets or
exceeds FCC requirements. However,
lightning striking the telephone or power
lines can damage your telephone.

Lightning damage is not common. Never-
theless, if you live in an area that has se-
vere electrical storms, we suggest that
you unplug your phone during storms to
reduce the possibility of damage.
