Notice:
The Industry Canada label identifies certified equipment. This
certification means that the equipment meets telecommunications network
protective, operational and safety requirements as prescribed in the
appropriate Terminal Equipment Technical Requirements document(s). The
department does not guarantee that the equipment will operate to the
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. The customer should be aware that compliance with the above
conditions may not prevent degradation of service in some situations.
Repairs to certified equipment should be coordinated by a representative
designated by the supplier. Any repairs or alterations made by the user to
this equipment, or equipment malfunctions, may give the telecom-
munications company cause to request the user to disconnect the
equipment.
Users should ensure, for their own protection, 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.
A label is located on the underside of the base unit containing both the
FCC registration number and Ringer Equivalency Number (REN) or the IC
registration number and Load Number. You must, upon request, provide this
information to your local telephone company.
The REN is used to determine the quantity of devices that may be connected
to the telephone line. Excessive RENs on the telephone line may result in
the devices not ringing in response to an incoming call. In most, but not all
areas, the sum of RENs should not exceed five (5). To be certain of the
number of devices that may be connected to a line, as determined by the
total RENs, contact the local telephone company.
Caution:
Users should not attempt to make such connections themselves,
but should contact the appropriate electric inspection authority, or
electrician, as appropriate.
This equipment is compatible with inductively-coupled hearing aids.
