Declaration for Canadian users
NOTICE: The Canadian Industry Canada label identifies certified equipment. This certification means
that the equipment meets certain telecommunications network protective, operation, and safety
requirements. The Department does not guarantee the equipment will operate to the user's satisfac-
tion.
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 sin-
gle 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 the 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 equip-
ment malfunctions, may give the telecommunications company cause to request the user to discon-
nect the equipment.
Users should ensure for their own protection that the electrical ground connections of the power util-
ity, 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 electric
inspection authority, or electrician, as appropriate.
The Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) assigned to each terminal device provides an indication of the maximum
number of terminals allowed to be connected to a telephone interface. The termination on an interface may con-
sist of any combination of devices subject only to the requirement that the sum of the Ringer Equivalence Num-
bers of all the devices does not exceed 5.
