    1 Notification to the Local Telephone Company
     On the bottom of this equipment is a label indicating, among other information, the US number and Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) for the equipment. You must, upon 
    request, provide this information to your telephone company.
     The REN is useful in determining the number of devices you may connect t\
    o your telephone line and still have all of these devices ring when your teleph\
    one number is 
    called. In most (but not all) areas, the sum of the RENs of all devices connected to one

    connect to your line as determined by the REN, you should contact your l\
    ocal   
    telephone company.
      A plug and jack used to connect this equipment to the premises wiring and telephone network must comply with the applicable FCC Part 68 rules and requirements adopted 
    by the ACTA. A compliant telephone cord and modular plug is provided with this  
    product. It is designed to be connected to a compatible modular jack that is also   
    compliant. See installation instructions for details.
    Notes  
    •  This equipment may not be used on coin service provided by the telephone company.
    • Party lines are subject to state tariffs, and therefore, you may not be able to use your own telephone equipment if you are on a party line. Check with your local telephone 
    company.
    • Notice must be given to the telephone company upon permanent disconnection of your telephone from your line.
    • If your home has specially wired alarm equipment connected to the telephone line,  
    ensure the installation of this product does not disable your alarm equipment. If you 
    have questions about what will disable alarm equipment, consult your telephone  
    company or a qualified installer.

    Important Information
    Interference Information
    This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following 
    two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference; and (2) This device 
    must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired 
    operation.
    This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital 
    device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide  
    reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation.
    This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed 
    and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio 
    communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a 
    particular installation.
    If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which 
    can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to 
    correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
    • Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna (that is, the antenna for radio or television that is “receiving” the interference).
    • Reorient or relocate and increase the separation between the telecommunications equipment and receiving antenna.
    • Connect the telecommunications equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiving antenna is connected.
    If these measures do not eliminate the interference, please consult your dealer or an  
    experienced radio/television technician for additional suggestions. Also, the Federal  
    Communications Commission has prepared a helpful booklet, “How To Identify and Resolve 
    Radio/TV Interference Problems.” This booklet is available from the U.S. Government  
    Printing Office, Washington, D.C. 20402. Please specify stock number 004-000-00345-4 
    when ordering copies.
    Notice: The changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for 
    compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
    FCC RF Radiation Exposure Statement
    This equipment complies with FCC RF radiation exposure limits set forth for an  
    uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with a  
    minimum distance of 20 centimeters between the radiator and your body. This transmitter 
    must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any other antenna or  
    transmitter.”
    For body worn operation, this phone has been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure 
    guidelines when used with the belt clip supplied with this product. Use of other  
    accessories may not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines.

    Important Information
    Introduction
    CAUTION: When using telephone equipment, there are basic safety instructions that 
    should always be followed. Refer to the IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS provided 
    with this product and save them for future reference.
    Your Four-Line Speakerphone is a full-featured phone ideally suited for home-office use. 
    It is designed to receive calls on up to four incoming telephone lines and to serve up to 1\
    6 
    station users. Your phone features 16 memory locations, 94 phone book memories, hold, 
    conference call, intercom, call transfer, Caller ID display, and speakerphone capabilities. It 
    also features an Auto Attendant function, which will pick up and redirect incoming calls to 
    other extensions in the system per the caller’s input. It is possible to enhance your phone 
    to a cordless feature with the additional purchase of the H5401 accessory handset 
    and module.
    This telephone is designed to be simple to use, however, you can reach its full potential 
    more quickly by taking a few minutes to read this user’s guide.
    IMPORTANT: In order to use all of the Caller ID features of this telephone, you must subscribe 
    to two separate services available from your local telephone company: the standard Name/
    Number Caller ID Service to know who is calling when the phone rings and\
     Call Waiting 
    Caller ID Service to know who is calling while you are on the phone.
    NOTE: Features and options pertaining to Caller ID do not apply to Model 25423. 
    						
    							 
    Parts Checklist
    Make sure your package includes the following items:
    Telephone Jack Requirements
    To 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 p\
    hone 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 25423, 
    25424, 25425, 25413, 25414, 25415, 25403 and 25404 models are 
    compatible for full system operation. Connecting phones other 
    than the 25423, 25424, 25425, 25413, 25414, 25415, 25403 and 
    25404  to Line 1 may inhibit the intercom 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.
