locale. L’équipement doit également être connecté suivant une méthode
convenable. Dans certains cas, il sera nécessaire de prolonger le câblage
intérieur de la ligne d’abonné de la compagnie au moyen d’un connecteur
homologué (rallonge de téléphone). L’abonné doit savoir que, dans certaines
situations, la con ormité aux dispositions ci-dessus ne prévient pas
nécessairement la dégradation du service.
La réparation de certains équipements homologués doit être assurée par un
atelier agréé désigné par le ournisseur. Toute réparation ou altération
e ectuée par l’utilisateur ou tout mauvais onctionnement de cet
équipement peut donner à la compagnie de téléphone des raisons de
demander audit utilisateur de déconnecter celui-ci.
Pour leur propre sécurité, les utilisateurs doivent veiller à ce que les mises à
la terre de l’alimentation secteur, des lignes téléphoniques et du système
intérieur de conduites d’eau métalliques soient raccordés ensemble. Cette
précaution peut s’avérer particulièrement importante dans les zones rurales.
!CAUTION:
