The telephone jacks and wiring must meet the standard followed by Cass Telephone Company. • Telephone: If you rent your telephones from Cass Telephone Company, they will be main- tained. The rental charges will be billed on your monthly bill. If you own your phones and do not have maintenance – you are responsible for your own telephone equipment and all repairs. Self-Check Guidelines Before Reporting Trouble • Check all cords for worn places, and check cord clips. • Check to be sure all cord clips are securely plugged in. • Check jacks to be certain they are securely mounted. • Check phones for stuck buttons. • Completely unplug any answering machines and cordless phones. To Check Your Telephone Line • Locate the demarcation box on the outside of your resi- dence. Remove the cover, remove modular jack from test jack, plug phone into the test jack. Listen for dial tone, attempt to make a local call. • It is best to check all phones possible at the test jack. • If service is good at the test jack, the problem could be in wiring, jacks or other telephone equipment. • If service sounds the same at the test jack, as it does inside, the problem may be in the line. Remember: If you own your own equipment, you are responsible for all equipment beyond the demarcation point. This includes all inside wiring, jacks, and telephone equipment. Please note you will be charged a repair visit if a telephone you own or your wiring is found to be causing a service problem. Effective April 1, 1987, with deregulation of inside wiring and leased telephone instruments, customers are charged for any repairs and visits Cass Telephone makes as a result of inside wire or customer-provided equipment trouble if they are not renting a phone, or do not have maintenance of their inside wiring.
