Connecting A Phone Line - Sony PCG-SR33K VAIO User Manual

Connecting a Phone Line

You need to connect a phone line to take advantage of online services, the Internet, and Sony Customer Support.
In order to register your notebook online, register your software, or use Sony Customer Support, you must
connect to a phone line.
1. Gently peel back the rubber phone jack cover. Pulling the phone jack cover too hard could damage it.

2. Plug one end of the phone cable (not supplied) into the jack under the phone jack cover. Make sure you
insert the phone cable from the rear of the notebook and that the modular jack clicks into place.
3. Plug the other end into the wall jack.

Your notebook does not work with party lines, cannot be connected to a coin-operated telephone, and may
not work with multiple phone lines. Some of these connections might result in excess electrical current and could
cause a malfunction in the internal modem.
If your telephone has two modular jacks, connect it as illustrated below.

When you complete the connections, you must use your communication software to adjust the settings for
your telephone, fax, and communication methods. For more information on adjusting settings, refer to your
communications software manual.
