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.
This digital apparatus does not exceed the class A limits for radio noise
emissions from digital apparatus set out in the radio interference regulations
of Industry Canada. The declarations of CE marking:
