Connecting a Telephone Line
You need to connect a telephone line to use online services and the Internet.
1 Gently peel back the rubber telephone jack cover. Pulling the telephone jack
cover too hard or too far could damage it.
2 Plug one end of the telephone cable into the telephone jack, under the
telephone jack cover. Make sure you insert the telephone cable from the rear
of the computer and that the modular jack clicks into place.
3 Plug the other end into the wall jack.
In order to register your Sony VAIO® computer, register your software online, and use
Sony Customer Support, you must connect the computer to a telephone line.
Do not plug the telephone cable into the Ethernet port located to the left of the
telephone jack as this may damage your computer.
Plugging Telephone Cable into Telephone Jack
Your computer does not work with party lines, cannot be connected to a coin-operated
telephone, and may not work with multiple telephone lines or a private branch
exchange (PBX). Some of these connections might result in excess electrical current
and could cause a malfunction in the internal modem.
