which it will be used.

1. In Windows Vista™, click start, point to All Programs, point to
TOSHIBA , point to Networking and click Modem Region Select
Utility .
2. The Region Selection icon will appear in the Windows Task Bar.

3. Click the icon with the primary mouse button to display a list of regions that
the modem supports. A sub menu for telephony location information will
also be displayed. A check will appear next to the currently selected region
and telephony location.
The internal modem does not support voice functions. All data
and fax functions are supported.
❑ In case of a lightning storm, unplug the modem cable from
the telephone jack.
❑ Do not connect the modem to a digital telephone line. A digi-
tal line will damage the modem.
Do not use the Country/Region Select function in the Modem
setup utility in the Control Panel if the function is available. If you
change the Country/Region in the Control Panel, the change may
not take effect.
