Notice to Users of the Canadian Public
Switched Telephone Network
The Canadian Department of Communications label
identifies certified equipment. This certification means
that the equipment meets certain telecommunications
network protective, operational, and safety requirements.
The Department does not guarantee 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. 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
(telephone extension cord). 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 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.
Users should ensure for their own protection that the
electrical ground connections of the power utility,
telephone line and internal metallic water pipe system, if
present, are connected together. This precaution may be
particularly important in rural areas.
Users should not attempt to
make such connections
themselves, but should
contact the appropriate
electric inspection authority,
or electrician, as appropriate.
