you may connect to your phone line, indicates the amount of power that your telephone
draws from the telephone company line during ringing. If you have more than one
telephone (or other terminal device) connected to the telephone company line, you
should total the ringer equivalence numbers (REN s), and be sure that the total is not
more than five. Your telephones may not ring if the total is more than five.Also, in some
rural locations, your telephone may not ring if the REN total is more than three.

lines.

netically-coupled hearing aids. You can use a hearing aid equipped with a T (Telephone)
