Parts Checklist  
Make sure your package includes the items shown here.  
Telephone Jack RequirementsTo use this phone, you will need an RJ11C (for a single  
line) or a RJ14C (for two lines) type modular phone jack, which might look like the one  
pictured here, installed in your home or office. If you don’t have either modular jack, call  
your local phone company to find out how to get one installed.  
VERY IMPORTANT: In order to achieve full system operation (i.e. intercom, page, etc.), Line  
1 must be connected and must be common to all phones connected to the system. Only  
other 25420, 25423, 25424, 25425, 25413, 25414, 25415, 25403 and 25404 models are

and paging operations.  
For proper operation of intercom, page function, etc., DO NOT connect a DSL modem to  
Line 1. To transfer a call from one station to another, the two stations  
should be connected to the same line.  
Important Installation Information  
• Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.  
• Never install telephone jacks in wet locations unless the jack is specifically designed  
for wet locations.
