equipment meets certain telecommunications network protective, operational and safety requirements. The Department does not
guarantee the equipment will operate to the user's satisfaction.
''This product meets the applicable Industry Canada technical specifications.”
Before installing this equipment, users should ensure that it is permissible to be connected to the facilities of the local telecom-
munications 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 as-
sembly (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 lines and inter-
nal 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.

drawal. These telephones may not be used on party lines or coin operated lines.
