Connecting a Phone Line

You need to connect a phone line to take advantage of online services and the
Internet.

1

Plug one end of the phone cable into the modem jack on the computer.

2

Plug the other end into the wall jack.

In order to register your Sony VAIO notebook, register your software online, and use
Sony Customer Support, you must connect to a phone line.

Connecting phone cable

Your computer does not work with party lines, cannot be connected to a coin-operated
telephone, and may not work with multiple phone lines or a private branch exchange
(PBX). Some of these connections may result in excess electrical current and could
cause a malfunction in the internal modem.

If you connect a phone line coming through a splitter, the modem or connected device
may not work properly.
