NOTICE: The Industry Canada label identifies certified equipment. The 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 the 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 con-
nection. In some cases, the company’s inside wiring associated with a single line individual service may be ex-
tended 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 installations made by the user to this equipment, or equipment malfunctions, may
give the telecommunications company cause to request that the user disconnect the equipment.
Users should ensure for their own protection that the electrical ground connections of the power utility, tele-
phone lines, and internal metallic water pipe system, if present, are connected together. This protection may be
particularly important in rural areas.
CAUTION: Users should not attempt to make such connections themselves, but should contact the appropri-
ate electric inspection authority, or electrician, as appropriate.
NOTICE: The Load Number assigned to each terminal device denotes the percentage of the total load to be con-
nected to a telephone loop which is used by the device, to prevent overloading. The termination on a loop may
consist of any combination of devices subject only to the requirement that the total of the load numbers of all
the devices does not exceed 100.
