This certification means that the equipment meets certain telecom­munications network protective, opemtional and safety requirements 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
equipment must also be installed using an approved method of connection. The method of connection approved for this equipment as designated by D.O.C. Standard CS-03 is a
or connection arrangement. The A or W suffix indicates that either desk or wall mounting is approved. In some cases, the company’s inside wiring associated with a single line individual service may be extended by means of a certified plug-cord
ensemble (telephone extension cord). The customer should be aware that compliance with the above conditions may not prevent degradation of service in some situations
Existing telecommunications company requirements do not permit their equipment to be connected to
provided
jacks
except where specified by individual telecommunications company tariffs
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.

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.
LOAD NUMBER
The load number of the telephone Load numbers are a new concept
deslgned to help you determine how many telephones can be connected to
any one telephone line. The total of the
load numbers for all the telephones
connected to any one
should not exceed 100. An alphabetic suffix Is also specified to indicate the appropriate
ringer type (A or B).
Since the load numbers are new,you may not know what the load numbers are for your previous telephones It is usually safe to assume that the load numbers for them will be about 20. This means that there should be no problems with up to five telephones on one line.
If the maximum total load number of 100 is exceeded, the telephone on that line may not ring or may ring poorly. In
addition, you may not be connected to the calling party when you pick up the receiver or you may have dialing problems
If you experience the above problems after the addition of a telephone to your line. you may have exceeded the maximum load number of 100. In this case, you will have to disconnect
of the telephones to reduce your total number below 100.
