    (For Canada Only)
    NOTICE: 
    The industry Canada label identifies certified equipment. This certification 
    means that the equipment meets telecommunications network protective, 
    operational and safety requirements as prescribed in the 
    appropriate Terminal Equipment Technical Requirements document(s). The 
    Department does not guarantee the equipment will operate to the 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. 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 coordinated by a representative 
    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 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.
