The REN is used to determine the number of devices that may connect to
a telephone line. Excessive RENs on a telephone line may result in the
devices not ringing in response to an incoming call. In most but not all
areas, the sum of the RENs should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain of
the number of devices that may be connected to a line, as determined by
the total RENs, contact your local telephone company. For product
approved after July 23, 2001, the REN for this product is part of the
product identifier that has the format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. The digits
represented by ## are the REN without the decimal point (e.g., 03 is a
REN of 0.3). For earlier products, the REN is separately shown on the
label.
If this DIRECTV ® DVR causes harm to the telephone network, the

the FCC if you believe it is necessary.
The telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment,
operations or procedures that could affect the proper functioning of your

make necessary modifications to maintain uninterrupted service.
