Connecting the Phone Line and Phone

You need to connect a phone line to take advantage of online services, the Internet, and faxing. To use Sony Online Support (SOS), you must also connect a phone.

✍In order to register your Sony VAIO MicroTower, register your software online, and use Sony Online Support, you must connect your computer to a phone line. Also, you must register your computer to receive the extended warranty.

There are two phone jacks on the back panel. Follow these steps to connect your phone line and phone.

✍The location of the Line and Telephone jacks on your computer may vary from those shown in the illustration .

1 Unplug your phone from the wall jack and plug it into the TELEPHONE jack on the computer.

2Plug one end of the phone cable that came with your system into the LINE jack and the other end into the wall jack.

✍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).
