Information for Canadian Users
The Industry Canada label identifies certified equipment. This
certification means that the equipment meets certain
telecommunications network protective, operation, and safety
requirements. The Industry Canada does not guarantee that the
equipment will operate to a user's satisfaction.
Before installing this equipment, users should ensure that it is
permissible to be connected to the facilities of the local
telecommunications company. The equipment must also be
installed using an acceptable method of connection. In some
cases, the company's inside wiring associated with a single line
individual service may be extended by means of a certified
connector assembly. The customer should be aware that the
compliance with the above conditions may not prevent
degradation of service in some situations.
Repairs to certified equipment should be made by an authorized
Canadian maintenance facility designated by the supplier. Any
repairs or alterations made by the user to this equipment, or
equipment malfunctions, may give the telecommunications
company cause to request the user to disconnect the equipment.
For their own protection, users should ensure that the electrical
ground connections of the power utility, telephone lines, and
internal metallic water pipe system, if present, are connected
together. This precaution may be particularly important in rural
areas.
Caution
Users should not attempt to make such connections themselves,
but should contact the appropriate electrical inspection authority,
or electrician, as appropriate.
