decimal point (e.g. 03 is a REN of 0.3). The REN is used to determine the number of devices that may be
connected to a telephone line. For earlier products, the REN is separately shown on the label. If
requested, this number must be provided to the telephone company. 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 RENs should not exceed ve (5.0). To be certain of the number of devices that may be connected
to a line, as determined by the total RENs, contact the local telephone company. This equipment is
