IC Statement
‘’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 telecommunications com-
pany. 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 (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 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 electri-
cian, as appropriate.
‘’The Ringer Equivalence Number is an indication of the maximum
number of terminals allowed to be connected to a telephone inter-
face. The termination on an 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.’’
g) Should you experience trouble with this equipment, please contact
Skylink Customer Support at 1-800-304-1187 for repair or warranty
information. If the equipment is causing harm to the telephone network,
the telephone company may request that you disconnect the equipment
until the problem is resolved.
h) Please follow instructions for repairing if any (e.g. battery replacement
section); otherwise do not alternate or repair any parts of device except
specified.
i) Connection to party line service is subject to state tariffs. Contact the
state public utility commission, public service commission or corporation
commission for information.
j) NOTICE: If your home has specially wired alarm equipment connected to
the telephone line, ensure the installation of this model AM-001 does not
disable your alarm equipment. If you have questions about what will
disable alarm equipment, consult your telephone company or a quali-
fied installer.
NOTICE: According to telephone company reports, AC electrical surges,
typically resulting from lightning strikes, are very destructive to telephone
equipment connected to AC power sources. To minimize damage from
these types of surges, a surge arrestor is recommended.
