TELEPHONE REPAIR SERVICE

Simple tests can be done to determine whether to call your local telephone company or another company. These tests may save you time and money. Repair Service reporting numbers are on page 3.

Before You Call

If the problem does not occur... the problem is in your wiring. Call your local tele- phone company or another company to repair your inside wiring. Charges may apply. If the problem is in your telephone set... follow the instructions on your warranty or contact your equipment retailer for repair or replacement. If all the phone accessories are working, go to your network interface box (outside, where the phone line enters the house). Copper Installation 4
