Section 68.108 Incidence of Harm.
"Should terminal equipment or protective circuitry cause harm to the telephone
network, the telephone company shall, where practicable, notify the customer
that temporary discontinuance of service may be required; however, where
prior notice is not practicable, the telephone company may temporarily
discontinue service forthwith, if such action is reasonable in the circumstances.
In case of such temporary discontinuance, the telephone company shall
(1) promptly notify the customer of such temporary discontinuance, (2) afford
the customer the opportunity to correct the situation which gave rise to the
temporary discontinuance, and (3) inform the customer of the right to bring a
complaint to the Commission pursuant to the procedures set forth in Subpart
E of this part."
Section 68.110 Compatibility of the Telephone Network and Terminal
Equipment.
(b) Changes in Telephone Company Facilities, Equipment Operations or
Procedures.
"The telephone company may make changes in its communications facilities,
equipment, operations or procedures, where such action is reasonably
required in the operation of its business and is not inconsistent with the rules
and regulations in the Part. If such changes can be reasonably expected to
render any customer's terminal equipment incompatible with telephone
company communications facilities, or require modification or alteration of
such terminal equipment, or otherwise materially affect its use or
performance, the customer shall be given adequate notice in writing, to allow
the customer an opportunity to maintain uninterrupted service."
Section 68.216 Repair of Registered Terminal Equipment and Registered
Protective Circuitry.
"Repair of registered terminal equipment and registered protective circuitry
shall be accomplished only by the manufacturer or assembler thereof or by
their authorized agent; however, routine repairs may be performed by a user, in
accordance with the instruction manual if the applicant certifies that such
routine repairs will not result in noncompliance with the rules in Subpart D of
this Part."
Section 68.218 (b) Additional Instructions To User.
1. "... registered terminal equipment or protective circuitry may not be used
with party lines or coin lines."
2. "... when trouble is experienced the customer shall disconnect the registered
equipment from the telephone line to determine if the registered equipment is
malfunctioning, and ... if the registered equipment is malfunctioning, the use of
such equipment shall be discontinued until the problem has been corrected."
3. "... the user must give notice to the telephone company in accordance with
the requirements of section 68.106 ..."
