Customer Information
Notice: This equipment meets the applicable Industry Canada Terminal Equipment Technical Specifications. This is confirmed by the registration number. The abbreviation, IC, before the registration number signifies that registration was performed based on a Declaration of Conformity indicating that Industry Canada technical specifications were met. It does not imply that Industry Canada approved the equipment.

Notice: The Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) for this terminal equipment is 0.1B. The REN assigned to each terminal equipment provides an indication of the maximum number of terminals allowed to be connected to a telephone interface. The termination on a interface may consist of any combination of devices subject only to the requirement that the sum of the Ringer Equivalence Numbers of all the devices does not exceed five.

AVIS : Le nombre équivalent de sonneries (REN) affecté à chaque terminal indique le nombre maximal de terminaux qui peuvent être branchés à une interface téléphonique. L’équipement terminal d’une interface peut comporter toute combinaison d’appareils, à la condition unique que le nombre équivalent total des sonneries de tous les appareils ne dépasse pas 5. Le nombre équivalent des sonneries se trouve sur la base du modem.

AVIS: L’étiquette d’Industrie Canada (IC) permet d’identifier le matériel homologué. Cette homologation signifie que le matériel est conforme à certaines normes de protection, d’exploitation et de sécurité des réseaux de télécommunications, comme le prescrivent les documents qui portent sur les exigences techniques relatives à l’équipement terminal. Cependant, le Ministère ne garantit pas que l’appareil fonctionnera à la satisfaction de l’utilisateur.

Avant d’installer ce matériel, l’utilisateur doit s’assurer qu’il est permis de le raccorder aux installations de l’entreprise locale de télécommunication. Le matériel doit également être installé selon une méthode de raccordement autorisée. Dans certains cas, le câblage intérieur de la compagnie étant associé à une ligne individuelle, le service individuel peut être étendu au moyen d’un connecteur certifié (rallonge téléphonique). L’abonné ne doit pas oublier que la conformité aux conditions susmentionnées n’empêchera peut-être pas la dégradation du service dans certains cas. À l’heure actuelle, les compagnies de téléphone n’autorisent pas les utilisateurs à raccorder leur appareil au jack sauf dans des circonstances précises énoncées dans les contrats et tarifs de ces compagnies.

Les réparations de matériel homologué doivent être coordonnées par un représentant désigné par le fournisseur. L’entreprise de télécommunications peut demander à l’utilisateur de débrancher un appareil à la suite de réparations ou de modifications effectuées par l’utilisateur ou à cause d’un mauvais fonctionnement de l’appareil.
